our marriage prayer

as autumn comes,
green leaves turn their colors
orange, gold, red, and burgundy
rhythmically whispering against the blowing wind
free...lightly floating in harmony...
flying...then gently rest upon the face of the earth...
Telling without words
the mystery of two people changing colors
purposely dropping their 'leaves'
so that new leaves and new lives can decorate the tree
Silently shouting the glory of The One
that gives them the breath and the meaning of life
As we commit our future into Your hands, Lord...
Please help us put down our egos
So that our lives together will become as You want it to be
Coloring the earth with You, with the blessing that You shower upon us...
