I was thinking the other day that there where three or four other people who all got married within the same year as Steve and I did and NONE of them are still married. It really makes my heart break. Some have been over for years while others have happen more recently. For one reason or another they just didn't make it. Steve and I started out this marriage knowing that the "D" word was not an options. I know too that others have said the same thing.
We have to choose every day to love the other person (even when they don't deserve to be loved) because that is what God has told us to do. I wish that I would say that I have never said "well, why don't we just end this now!" in the middle of a fight. I was not deserving of Steve's love, but He chose to love me anyway. There have been time that it was the other way around. We know that God has put us together.
I am say all of this to say that I am so thankful for my husband who always chooses to love me even when I don't deserve it. I am so Thankful for God givings us the Strength to make the right choices. They aren't always easy ones make, but we make them with GOD on our side. We are holding on to HIM and with HIS help we are going to make it through this life.
Great post and Happy Anniversary!!!
