"Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away."

(Fargo, ND)—The AP reports that newlywed couple, Nathan and Brittney Aakre believe their marriage last week was "prophesied" months earlier when they sent out their invitations. The scripture printed on their invitations was from the Song of Solomon: "Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away."

According to the report, they were supposed to be married at Fargo's First Assembly of God Church, but when the Red River flooded, they had to find a local hotel to accomodate their wedding.

The bride's father, Reverend Cal Thompson, who married the couple, is reportedly convinced that their invitations were, indeed, prophetic.

"I've got a lot of stuff on my plate and I need guidance all the time," Obama said in the interview. He told Moran that before he was elected, he used to pray each night. Obama reportedly receives a devotional and prayer sent to his BlackBerry every morning from Pastor Joshua DuBois, the director of the president's Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships Initiative.
