I was 21. Amy was 18 and fresh out of High School.
We were young and in love and blind to all reality, but God has been gracious, and we will celebrate 36 years of marriage on June 25th.
It has not been all violins and roses... we have had some great years and few we'd sooner forget, but when we vowed "for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health" we meant it. I love her more now (and in a deeper, more special way) than I did in 1971.
"God is excited to show you mercy. He rises to give you His compassion." (Isaiah 30:18)
"For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)
