Mike Schmitz reminds us that true love transcends mere feelings; it&#8217;s a daily decision. This profound insight holds valuable lessons for wedding planning, marriage, and the way we live our lives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When preparing for marriage, remember that the perfect wedding day isn&#8217;t about the grandeur of the event but about the choice to love one another. Focus on building a foundation of love, resilience, and commitment that will sustain you throughout your journey together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every day, choose love. Marriage will have its challenges, but the decision to love, even in difficult times, can strengthen your bond. It means showing kindness, forgiveness, and understanding, even when emotions waver.   We can try to extend this lesson to our everyday interactions too. In a world often driven by impulse and instant gratification, pause and choose love. Be patient with others, seek understanding, and offer kindness. By making love a daily decision, you can positively impact the lives of those around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"154\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cropped-let-us-pray.png?resize=1024%2C154&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cropped-let-us-pray.png?resize=1024%2C154&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cropped-let-us-pray.png?resize=300%2C45&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cropped-let-us-pray.png?resize=768%2C115&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cropped-let-us-pray.png?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heavenly Father,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We thank You for the wisdom imparted by Fr. Mike Schmitz\u2014that love is not merely a feeling but a daily decision. As we embark on this journey of wedding planning and marriage, help us remember this truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our wedding preparations, may we focus on the enduring commitment we are making to each other, laying the foundation for a love that chooses to endure, no matter the circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our marriage, grant us the strength to choose love daily, especially when faced with challenges. May our love be a beacon of hope and understanding, reflecting Your love for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And in our daily lives, help us extend this choice to love to everyone we encounter. In a world that often rushes by, let us be a source of patience, kindness, and compassion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">May our decisions to love daily bring us closer to You and to one another, allowing Your love to shine through us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Jesus&#8217; name, we pray,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?resize=1024%2C256&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-71\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?resize=1024%2C256&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?resize=300%2C75&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?resize=768%2C192&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?resize=1536%2C384&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/catholicweddingplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/God-Bless-You.png?w=1584&amp;ssl=1 1584w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">#ChooseLove #DailyDecision #LoveUnconditionally<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you want to read more teachings from Fr.
