The 1 year mark!

Hey all,
I just stole away from mmy husband for a few minutes to share how excited I am to be celebrating my 1sy anniversary today :)
A year ago, today seemed so far off, and with the added pressure of me losing my job, my MIL's health and a host of other family problems, we stuck together.
Today's sermon was very appropriate...the pastor spoke on the praying power of a God-filled woman and how a man should be so lucky to have a wife grounded in the Lord's will and purpose...amen, amen, amen!!
Be encouraged my sisters, whatever battle you may face, it isn't bigger than your God!
All right, I'm done. I know I don't post as often as I used to so congratulations to all the recent Viwives (Purebliss sticks out in my mind) and all the best to tohse of you who are planning (Rhony and Cinny are up next right?!)

Stay in love....

Hey Taunyana, it is so good to hear from you! Thanks for dropping such wonderful encouraging words! I am next and Cinny is following right behind me. PB&J got married this weekend, I can't wait to hear from her, as well. Come back soon my sista!

Delight yourself in The Lord & He will give you the desires of your heart!Ps 37

Re: The 1 year mark!

Thank you all for your well wishes, our anniversary was excellent, I'm STILL cheesing!
To answer your question Ms. Rosey, we didn't get a honeymoon right away and our attempts to have one for our anniversary were foiled with me losing my job. The wedding itself was so low-key, there were A LOT of things that went wrong and thats why our anniversary meant so much, we've been celebrating monthly anniversaries as encouragement that life, love and marriage happen one day at a time.
As if she knew what I was thinking, here's something a friend sent me today...

"Good morning to you all and may the Lord bless each and every one of you today and always. Here is today's verse....
Let us strip off anything that slows us down or holds us back, and especially those sins that wrap themselves so tightly around our feet and trip us up; and let us run with patience that particular race that God has set before us. -- Hebrews 12:1
Here's some good news..... You don't have to keep up with anyone else. You can run your own race and be an individual. God has given you the grace to do what He's called YOU to do. He has not given you the grace to do what everybody else is doing.
Amen!
Have a blessed day!"

Oh yea, I guess I do owe y'all pics huh? Lemme see what I can rustle up.

Re: The 1 year mark!

Thank you for your encouragement Housewife and Rhonny! We are holding up well and remain thankful for the blessings we have sustained thus far. I like to think that with wisdom comes strength, knowing that God is in control gives me the strength to endure.
