34 Reason Why I Married the Right Man

This past Saturday was our 34th wedding anniversary!  I can hardly believe that it has been 34 years.  God has been so good to us and blessed us in so many ways.  I am thankful for the years that the Lord has given us together and I want to share 34 reasons why I know I married the right man. 
  1. I was willing to wait for the right person.   This took a little doing because I nearly married the wrong person a few years earlier.  God protected me.  I am so glad I waited!  
  2. He loves the Lord wholeheartedly.  He did then and does now.
  3. We hit it off right away.
  4. We spent our time serving the Lord while dating.  It wasn’t just about us.
  5. My husband was and still is a family oriented man.
  6. My husband loves me for who I am and has since day one.
  7. I love him for who he is and did since day one.
  8. We have come through good and bad together and have worked through trials together while trusting the Lord.
  9. He is my best friend.
  10. He is the hardest worker I know.  He does not have a lazy bone in his body. 
  11. He is the best father I know.  He loves his children and they love him.
  12. He loves me even at my worst.
  13. He likes to be with me more than anyone.  Why, I don’t know, but I am sure glad that he does.
  14. He is  a wonderful grand father!  His grand children love him so much!
  15. He has a compassion for souls and shares the gospel with others.
  16. He has always been a good provider.
  17. He has always been generous.
  18. He has honored his parents and honored mine like his own.
  19. He has always been faithful.
  20. He is wise.
  21. He has his priorities in the right order - God, wife, children, church, job
  22. He is a leader.
  23. He’s my protector.
  24. He is a good teacher and teaches by example.
  25. He is a strong disciplinarian.  He is self disciplined and he disciplined in love and according to the Word of God.
  26. He is a good counselor and backs up his counseling with the Word of God.
  27. He is affectionate, not just to me, but to all of his family.
  28. He is a giver of his time, talent, and treasures.
  29. He is honest and trustworthy.
  30. He is unselfish.
  31. He is a discerner.
  32. He spends time daily in the Word of God.
  33. He has a servant’s heart. 
  34. He has been the best person I know to spend the last 34 years of my life with and I look forward to many more if the Lord tarries!

Some Things do not have an End

I love my family.  There are the only thing on earth you can take with you to eternity.  How important to share the gospel with all of them!  It is exciting to see my grand children, one by one come to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior.  I look forward to the day when each one of them has been saved through the blood of Jesus Christ and I look forward to that great reunion in heaven.  You can be 100% sure!

My music must show my changed life or regenerated experience.  If there is no change, then we have a defective salvation or perhaps, no salvation.  2Corinthians 5:17  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. My music should show ownership. We are not our own.  We belong to Christ.  Be careful what you put into your body, mind, and soul.  Does it reflect the ownership of Christ? 1 Corinthians 6:19-20  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which y...
