Grateful

Today my husband and I celebrated our anniversary of being married for 25 years! Woohoo! If you would have asked us back, then if we had seen this coming. We would have both laughed and said, "Heck No!" Haha Well, we did it! We overcame the odds! We started our journey with more than just love, we had goals, and a lot of determination. Life threw us countless amounts of curveballs: with the everyday emotional struggles of ups and downs of family life, financial challenges, and health scares. Instead of letting those challenges pull us apart, we continued to trust in God and allow him to direct and guide his path for our journey. We developed a stronger bond and learned how to lean on each other. With tears and fear we held on. Our faith in God kept us together, we made silent meaningful hugs, our go-to medicine. Our story reminds me that even when life gets tough, love and resilience can help us overcome the odds. So, take heart, and be inspired because no matter where you are in your journey, you have the strength to create your own beautiful story.

So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” Matthew 19:16
