Tomorrow Is Not Promised: Why You Should Renew Your Vows This Year
In a world where we hear daily stories of unexpected loss, many couples quietly whisper to themselves, “We’ll celebrate later.” But what if later never comes?
Whether it's a tragedy, a diagnosis, or just the fast pace of life, too many couples miss the chance to celebrate what they’ve built — while they still have the chance.
❤️ Who Says You Have to Wait 25 Years?
At a recent training, I met Sarah and James (names changed), married 12 years. After Sarah's mother passed away suddenly, she told me,
“We always said we’d do a big vow renewal at 25 years. But that shook us. We realized… what if we don’t get 25?”
They decided to celebrate now. Just them and their kids. A simple backyard renewal — handwritten vows, barefoot in the grass, tears and laughter in equal measure.
It wasn’t fancy. It was real — and unforgettable.
🔁 Why Renewing Your Vows Every Year Makes Sense
- It creates a rhythm of recommitment. Marriage is a living thing. Celebrating each year adds intention and spiritual strength.
- You grow every year — your vows should, too.
- Life is unpredictable. Celebrating often ensures no season of love goes unrecognized.
- It sets an example. Your marriage becomes a living testimony of love in action.
Think about it: We schedule annual physicals, insurance renewals, and routine inspections—shouldn’t our most important relationship deserve the same attention?
🔄 A New Tradition Worth Keeping: Celebrate Every Year
You don’t need to wait for a milestone anniversary to honor your marriage.
Make it a habit of the heart.
Some years: handwritten vows at the dinner table.
Others: a beachside moment with music and flowers.
And sometimes: the full celebration you didn’t get the first time.
Let this become your new tradition — one where love isn’t taken for granted, but treasured again and again.
Because your spouse shouldn’t just be glad you stayed — they should know that you’d choose them all over again.
