Covenant relationships: Making lasting decisions

by Gary Tate

Overview

This is meant to assist anyone looking to establish a covenant relationship, possibly leading to marriage. This is not just words spoken but a promise made before God and another person. Like the marriage vows, the words spoken are "I promise or I do". In the American Indian culture they cut the bottom of their arms, -the blood mixing as they do-, and placed them on top of the other person making them their "family". To whatever "level" of your words spoken can be all the difference!

About the Author

I am a Christian father of four grown adults; I have seen God’s grace and mercy in my life. I will be happily married for 45 years this year (2016), to my wife, Anne. She is a woman of great faith and love, whom I share this life with. We overcame the statistics for marriages of Vietnam veterans, as my wife has told me. We have done this all while loving and caring for our severely and profoundly disabled daughter, which the stress alone could have added so many complications to our lives if we allowed it.

We have raised four children into four grown adults. Our first born, Rebecca, has her B.A. in education and is a teacher. Our second child, Robert, works as Supervisor special needs adults who clean businesses and has a girlfriend named Natalie. Our third child, Mariel, has received her B.S.R.N., in Nursing, and was married in 2007 to Ronell. They have a son, Nadir, who turned 20 (2016), and since brought a son named Levi, age 5 (2016), and Micah, 3(2016) and Josiah, 18 months old (2016). Ronell is Pastor of God Carriers International.

Gayle, who, as I often say, “I believe I would not be the person I am today without her.” She is our “special child.” I have received my Associate degree in August of 2006 and my license as a minister, September 16, 2012.
