Day 4- Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary!!!

June 2010-June 2011

Year 4

Four years ago today I made a pledge, a promise, and a commitment to one person for the rest of my life. If I had it all to do over again, I would choose the same! Paul has enriched my life with much joy, lots of new experiences, and a greater understanding of who God made me to be and why.We have had our ups and downs like many other couples, but we believe it makes us stronger. We thank God for the love that brought us together and continue to ask for his guidance to keep that fire strong for the remainder of our lives! Paul, know that I love you beyond what words can express, appreciate you for who you are, and pray for you daily in your struggles to overcome them and become even stronger. Life with you is so much fun and I thank you for helping me become a better woman and strengthening me  when I am weak! God truly gave me you to care for and love. I feel so very blessed!

Here are a few highlights from our last year together....

Lord, help us to remember when we first mt and the strong love that grew between us, to work that love into practical things so nothing can divide us.   We ask for words both kind and loving and hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as forgive.  Dear Lord, we put our marriage into your hands.
