Dear Church Family,
Tomorrow will mark fifteen years of marriage to my wonderful
bride. It is hard to believe that it has
been that long already. I want to write
this newsletter/blog as a tribute to the love of my life.
Proverbs
18:22
says, “He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the
Lord.”
I have been really blessed by the
woman that God has brought into my life.
She is beautiful, talented, smart, and is a devoted follower of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
Our fifteen years of marriage have not always been
easy.
We have overcome some things along
the way, as every marriage that lasts does.
Our love and commitment to God and each other have carried us through
any differences that we have had.
We
have seen that the more you mature in your Christian walk the more your
marriage also benefits.
There is nothing
that God’s love and wisdom cannot overcome!
We are thankful that our marriage is sizzling now more than
ever.
We not only love each other out of
commitment and the choice to do so, but we both feel more in love with each
other than we ever have before.
God has
truly helped us get to this point.
We
have always loved each other and worked well together in ministry and
parenting, etc, but it is awesome when you can have passion for one another
while doing all these other things!
I want to encourage you to open your heart to the ministry
of the Holy Spirit and the Word of God through her.
She has really stepped up to a higher level
in the last year or so.
The series she
is preaching about staying free from offense is vital for us a church and for
you individually.
Don’t let real or
perceived wrongs keep you from receiving what God has for you!
We love you and look forward to seeing you Sunday!
Pastor Jeff
