Marriage Monday

I'm joining Denise at Shorty Bears Place with Marriage Monday. I thought this was a great way to share the great works of our Lord!

My hubby and I have been married 27 years. It hasn't been all glorious, but thanks to the Lord, it has been the best two years that has made the whole 27 years worthwhile. When we gave ourselfs to the Lord, our marriage became the strongest it's ever been. I'm so grateful to the work the Lord has done with him. He's become my rock, soul mate, best friend, glorious earth father and grand father, and the most wonderful husband a woman could ever ask for.

Don't get me wrong. I've always loved him through thick and thin. I took my vows seriously when I married him. I vowed to never break them. We both made mistakes, but I believe it happened so that we could grow stronger together. I strongly believe it takes two to make or break a relationship. My hubby takes a lot on his shoulders for the problems we had, but I believe we both had an equal share in that. Besides, the Lord wants us to look forward, not behind. We learned from our mistakes, and that's what matters.

He now has more faith than I could have ever imagined. He leads our family in ways I would never have thought possible in my wildest dreams. He's teaching me every day. I draw a lot of strength from him. I'm proud of all that he does, and love spending any free moment we have together. I look forward to the rest of our lives together. He's an amazing man, and I knew from the moment I saw him that he was a keeper. ;) God works in misterious wonderful ways. I thank God for him daily.

Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful for the Lord providing me the most wonderful husband a woman could ever ask for. He is a true God fearing man of the Lord. He is a good leader to his family. He is a remarkable man that has learned the words of the Lord quickly. His thirst and his hunger is contagious.

Whenever I feel down, blue, discouraged, frustrated or whatever the case may be; I can always count on him to pick me up and remind me of whom I need to talk to.

When taking a recent trip, I was a bit anxious as I usually don't drive long distances alone as I get tired real easy. He instantly put my mind at ease by reminding me that God was in control! Yes, this is so true and he was precious for reminding me.

He's an awesome father to our grown children. He's a wonderful grandfather to the grand children. He is so loving and giving of himself to them. He teaches the children about God.

He strives to learn more each and every day and shares what he learns with the rest of us. He's recently gained a business that he's made a Christian ran business. His partner is a Christian as well and loves the fact that they rely on the Lord to lead them to make good decisions and to guide them on what they are to do!

He's a teacher of the Lord's word. He spends a majority of his spare time in the Bible or other religious books. I love his desire to move forward daily in the Lord. I love our life together. I feel so secure and loved by him. I couldn't ask for a better soul mate, best friend, father, grandfather, and personal mate. We went through some rough times, but I knew I wasn't to give up on him, and am thankful I was led to stay with him. 27 sweet years of marriage to a man that I will love and respect for eternity. Thank you babe! I'm so proud of all that you have accomplished in life and in our relationship. You are a wonderful mad of the Lord! I'm happy to be your wife!
