Anniversary


4 Kids

Today is my wedding anniversary. That means that on this day, 35 years ago, I married Darlene. Darlene is the love of my life. I am so blessed that God has given me to her. We met in high school and got married young. Some people thought that it wouldn't last. We did one very important thing. We chose to put Jesus in the center of our marriage and relationship. Times haven't always been perfect and we have made our share of mistakes, but Jesus has always been there to guide, help, and direct us. We were just two kids from families that had gone through divorce. But God has kept us together and caused our love for each other to grow.

Jesus wants to help each one walking on planet earth get through this adventure called life. He wants to help you. He will help you in school and at home this summer. Someday, when you are old enough to get married, you can put your trust in Jesus to be the center of your marriage. I know, for those of you younger than 12, I have just grossed you out. Begin today to put Jesus in the center of all of your friendships. Then, when you are old enough to begin looking for that special someone, it will be natural for you to build that relationship with a shared love for Jesus.
