Covenant Renewed

I have been away the last few days because I went to my niece's wedding. At the wedding the bride and groom make a covenant to love each other as long as they live. For those of us who witnessed the vows we were reminded of the covenant that we made before God and witnesses. I was reminded too of the covenant that God had made with the Israelites and Joshua renewed that covenant with them as they gathered in the valley at Shechem.
