A Special Day

Today is a special day indeed. Four years ago, the Lord had bigger and better plans for our lives than we did. Christ showed His unfailing love and mercy toward us in the midst of so much darkness, and began to fulfill His beautiful purpose for our life. Words do not describe how thankful I am to be the wife and mother my King has called me to be, but I am even more blessed to be with a man who strives to live his life, and guide his family, along on the path the Lord has set out. I am learning that marriage is not a fairy tale that our culture lays it out to be, but something so much more. It is joyful in times of accomplishment and triumph, and comforting in the times of trouble and fear. Jesus continues to strip each of us down, only to rebuild us stronger, as one. I am constantly in awe of how He works, and how much He has blessed our marriage and family. Happy Anniversary to my Lew :) I'm looking forward to the rest of my life with you...
