I wrote this to read during Abigail's Wedding in March of 2009
What are these strange, invisible strings, Deep & hidden cords that bind lives together? What force compels a son to leave his home to start his own, And a daughter to kiss her mother, to become a mother? What mysterious threads attaches one life to another? Where did they come from? What are they made of, and why do they cry when severed?
Unseen but undeniable, Fragile as glass, yet stronger than iron, More gentle than that first kiss, More ardent than the last embrace that renders two lovers, are these sacred bonds that link lives together. Common as air, rare as mercy in a world where attachments are but for convenience, Two lives united by this heavenly thing shine as one beacon in the darkest and longest of nights. What holds us together - this thing we call love - is but the nature of GOD, And before you were born, GOD cast out HIS cords, and bound you with what we call...love.
