Gifs by Oriza - Love Prayers: Love Prayer

We fell in love and married young, others said we couldn’t know. Who else could truly know my heart, or which way we should go? We all must choose the path to walk, and how we’ll live each day. It makes no difference the choice we make, if we take God along our way. All our challenges will be lessons learned, if we choose to go His way. Others may snicker and laugh at us, it doesn’t matter what they say. God teaches us through every test, and after struggles he gives us rest.

"It makes no difference the choice we make, if we take God along our way." I do believe in the truth you have expounded today ! If God is with us, our choices in life cannot go wrong! If we are sure we are treading through the right track, we needn't bother what others say. As ever, a beautiful sonnet, dear Bill....

Oh yes, it doesn't matter what people say or what their perspectives are, as long as our inner conscience is aligning with the beautiful light of God, we should always follow the path and explore those expeditions that our hearts want us to follow.. Another brilliant sonnet, dear Bill.. I've also, in these years come to the realisation that true peace and faith can only be found in God's embrace and nowhere else.. A wonderful write, many best wishes and light to you :)

I married young or so I thought at least that almost 23 and my husband almost 21 was just a little young. That was 25 years ago though. Great sonnet, and nice inspiring!

For your generation, that was young. :-) Congrats on 25 years! Have a great weekend, my friend. Bill

A magnificent sonnet my friend. My wife and I fell in love at 15 and we have never had a moment of regret.

Awesome! my sister married at 15, my mother 17 and grandmother, 15. I was much older, 20 for my first wife. Thanks for commenting, Jerry. Bill
