Were he still here, John and I would be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary today.
I love and miss him so much, but I have assurance in Christ Jesus that I will see him again, and know that we have all eternity ahead to look forward to.
"For now we see through a glass, darkly; but
then face to face: now I know in part; but then
shall I know even as also I am known."
(1 Corinthians 13:12)
I am so extremely thankful for the many years that God gave us together upon this earth...fifty-five years of friendship and thirty-three years of marriage.
"I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love—"
(from Annabel Lee by Edgar Allen Poe)
He entrusted us with a beautiful family and has bountifully blessed us with twenty-two (soon to be twenty-three) grandchildren. Who could ask for more?
We were (and still are) beyond blessed!
Thank You, God! Thank You for John, for our marriage, for all that we shared as friends and, later, as husband and wife, for our beautiful family, and for all the goodness and many blessings that You have bestowed upon us. I am truly humbled. In Jesus' name...Amen!
Until next time...
~Rebecca
