Thoughts about Happily Ever After

Its easy in singleness to think of the wedding as something magical, the end game. In reality its the day in day out struggle of two sinners to love one another with the love of God to share your joys and sorrows to become one with your spouse. To grow each day in the grace and knowledge of God in the roles that God has given husband as provider and wife as the carer and keeper of the home. By God's grace I love my husband more each day. My role given by the Lord is to be his helper, to help in his goals. My husband says I am his personal assistant. 

A Loving Marriage

I have been married for 2 years. Its kind of crazy to think about and to realize how great a gift God granted me when I met my husband October 17, 2021. I was in a healthy place in my life. I was living with friend and though I had been praying for marriage every day I was also taking part in a lot of church activities. My husband was biblically solid, knew God's word. He talked to me. When he met me in Sunday he did not want to wait until Friday to see me so we went out Wednesday the 20th saw each other Saturday the 23rd and went to Ikea where we walked the whole building.

Its crazy how far we have come. Even though we weren't able to get married on March 19th like we had wanted, we are thankful. We met in October, knew we loved each other in November, got engaged in December and got married in April. God is faithful. My hubby is the one God had for me and I am grateful for the gift he is to me.
