30 Pearls of “I DO!”

by Marviette A. Usher

STORY SYNOPSIS

More than 20 years ago, I said, “I Do”… As a single woman, all I wanted to do was get married, partner with my spouse in ministry, and live life in this crazy world simply out-loving each other while supporting one another’s dreams. As an engaged and young married wife, I went to conferences, counseling sessions, and checked out books about Christian marriage to ensure that I understood the biblical premise of “I Do” to walk out my vows with a godly, not carnal mindset. I did so joyfully and wholeheartedly, withholding nothing.
We make these vows not foreseeing the various seasons of marriage. We understand conceptually the difference between “better or worse,” “richer or poorer,” “sickness and in health,” and “to love and to cherish,” until death. When we hear the
word “death,” we tend to conclude until there is an occurrence of a physical death of either spouse. While physical death is often viewed as the ending of a covenant, many persons in marriage have been faced with whether or not their spouse has spiritually died, emotionally disconnected, or been involved in events that can sever the very lifeblood in an attempt to undo the marriage.
Now, after more than 20 years of marriage, I still do. Marviette, now at 30 years, has done so and done well. The essence of focus and unwavering commitment, to which I allude, finds its tangible manifestation in the life of Marviette Usher. In her capacity as the author of this insightful volume, I wholeheartedly endorse her as an authoritative voice on matters of marital significance. Her virtuous character as a wife, steeped in divinity, resonates across the expansive canvas of her enduring 30+ years within the covenant.
Three decades past, she vocalized her solemn “I Do,” a commitment upheld unwaveringly despite the varying conditions encircling the covenant. Even in the present moment of the work’s publication, she persists in embodying the sacred vows
she once declared.
Engage with the upcoming chapters with the awareness that Marviette has not merely conceptualized these ideas through hypothetical scenarios; rather, she has authentically manifested and embraced them throughout her extensive 30+ years of matrimony. She steadfastly abided, resiliently persevered and flourished, enduring the crucible of intense pressure.
Now, she graciously imparts the invaluable pearls of wisdom garnered through the crucible of experience. Delve into the profound insights stemming from a woman whose profound spiritual journey enabled the embodiment of her sacred marital vows.
She not only declared “I Do,” she lived her vows. She said, “I Do,” and nevertheless, she DID. Marviette expresses as the 30th chapter of her married life was coming to an end, she made a conscious decision to celebrate what she knew worked. The iconic anniversary gift for the 30th Anniversary is pearls, and her gift to other Phenomenal Women is to share her 30 Pearls of I DO! May every lesson, nugget, and pearl of wisdom be a blessing to every reader.
Let’s take a journey through some valuable lessons she has learned and walked through
in my 30-year marriage:
You’re Contemplating I DO
You’ve already said, “I DO”
Your I DO is being tested
Your I DO has been jeopardized
Your I DO has turned into I DID

Reviews:

“30 Pearls of I Do” is a beautifully articulated journey of love, offering profound reflections on unconditional devotion that I am grateful to have witnessed. This love story began with friendship, long before marriage was even a consideration. The life lessons shared within these pages stem from a foundation of humility, sacrifice, resilience, forgiveness, and strength.

The narrative masterfully intertwines hope with moments of pain, revealing the courage and misconceptions tied to enduring challenges with grace and dignity. It explores the silent healing that comes with forgiveness, the power of a strong prayer life, and the significance of extending grace to oneself while navigating life’s complexities. Through its exploration of sacrifice and love, the book redefines sacrifice not as a mere loss but as an opportunity to gain something greater in return.

Throughout the journey, readers are gripped by the hope for a different outcome and reminded of the universal truth: “You never truly know what you would do until it happens to you.” The book captures the rare beauty and intimacy of marriage while unflinchingly addressing the painful realities of disloyalty.

I wholeheartedly recommend 30 Pearls of I Do to anyone—whether married, single, aspiring to marry, or divorced. It is a treasure trove of wisdom and an authentic testimony from a powerful and compelling voice.
