Ecclesiastes 5:1-7

"Guard your steps when you go to the house of God.
Go near to listen rather than to offer the
sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong.

Do not be quick with your mouth,
do not be hasty in your heart
to utter anything before God.
God is in heaven
and you are on earth,
so let your words be few.
As a dream comes when there are many cares,
so the speech of a fool when there are many words.

When you make a vow to God,
do not delay in fulfilling it.
He has no pleasure in fools;
fulfill your vow.
It is better not to vow
than to make a vow and not fulfill it.

Therefore, stand in AWE of God."


Reflect on this one thought

What did you vow before God
the day you were married?
Remember?
For richer or poorer, in sickness and in health,
till death do us part.

Take your vows seriously!
