twelve years

Twelve years ago, on a chilly October evening, we said I do and pledged ourselves to one another.

We didn't know what we were doing.

I don't think anyone really does, regardless of whether they are 19 or 29 or 49.

But he loved me, I was sure of that. And I loved him.

And I knew we would serve Jesus together.

Twelve years later, I am more certain of his love for me.

I love him more than I did then.

We have served Jesus together, and He has walked so faithfully with us.

When we said I do, He said I do, too.

I am thankful for Daniel, for our marriage, and for our covenant-keeping God.
