This is how we can summarize the readings for today. A LOVE STORY.
Because today is a day of Love.
Today, we will witness the renewal of Marriage vow of Nanay and Tatay that they
made 50 years ago
as we celebrate the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene a model of
ardent,
faithful, and
reverent love,
Our first reading from the book of the Song of Songs, is a love story
not only enshrines the love between man and woman but
above all, the symbolic expression of God’s love for his people.
But Nanay and Tatay’s love story is the loving reality of two people
who over 50 years have been through, and have stayed together,
through thick and thin.
The true lover can say: I will love you always…., no matter what…..
I will love you always…., even if……………
I will love you always…., whatever happens…..
Whatever happens to me….
Whatever happens to you….
Whatever happens tomorrow….
And may our hearts continually long, thirst, and pine for God like a dry,
weary land without water until we rest in God.
