After going viral online, a wedding photo was shared all over the world. It depicts a bride and husband holding hands while seated close to one another. The man glances down while the young woman sobs, “Don’t stare at each other. What might that imply? Has he offended her recently? Is the ceremony? Had he a change of heart?

Before getting married, Corporal Caleb Earwood wanted to pray with his future spouse. The future union between them was the focus of the prayer. Additionally, because it is customary for the husband to abstain from seeing the bride before the wedding, the couple simply held hands while not exchanging looks. Together, they prayed.
