"We are at Jesus' disposal. If he wants you to be sick in bed, if he wants you to proclaim his work in the street, if he wants you to clean the toilets all day, that's all right, everything is all right. We must say, 'I belong to you. You can do whatever you like.' And this ... is our strength, and this is the joy of the Lord." - Mother Teresa
20 years ago, we should have said: "I, ______, take you, _____, to be my cranky, fault-finding spouse; to push you to the edge of yourself, so you finally seek your One True Love - Jesus. With Him as our guide, we'll ride like happy kids, bouncing in the back seat of the van. So, let's promise to look to Him always, kiss and eat some cake."
