With nearly 90,000 views and over 18,000 comments, this spoken word has made its way around the globe. Here’s what some of the viewers had to say.

“I feel the exact way as this poem plays out… It is so hard to wait for marriage, but its worth it. My children are NOT facing what I’ve been through. Divorce is not an option. Jesus is my first love and I’m His bride. Therefore, I put my trust in Him to mold and shape my future husband, who is wonderfully for me.”

“I love this! So true! My marriage was falling apart. People would say to me everybody gets divorced, its ok. But I didn’t want to be another statistic. So I said alright Jesus I give you my life and my marriage if you are truly real make a change in me and my marriage! And He did I can sit here and say my marriage is better than ever and the love I thought I lost for my husband God has given me a love for my husband than I ever had before!”

“This is truth! Amazing message!!!!
With GOD EVERYTHING is possible! Put God first in your life and you will learn the true meaning of love! We are here because without the gift God gave us, Jesus Christ, we would have destroyed each other. That means if you place God first in your homes, your marriage wont be destroyed because you both equally love something more than yourself and each other, THE LORD!”

“Powerful stuff. You definitely have a gift from God. The hate of the world only proves what an incredible job you’re doing spreading the gospel and addressing important topics. Keep it up, brother!”
