Six years ago tomorrow, Kris Takle entered my life. No, it’s not our anniversary. But, it is a special day that we have acknowledged every year since. Because, since that day, my life has never been the same. Our commitment is based first and foremost on our commitment to Christ. To live a life fully devoted to Him. So, we can then be fully committed to one another. Believe me. We are well aware that when our “connective-ness” is out of whack, our relationship with Christ usually is, too.
Our journey together isn’t without challenges. We’ve faced difficulties and disappointments. But, we keep on pursuing Him. We keep on pursuing one another. Because, we know that in every situation, the goodness of God can always be found.
I can honestly say that I love him more today than I did the day I married him. Cliché, I know. But, it’s true. So very true. I hope fifty years from now we are still bringing glory to the One who saved us by His completely amazing, breath-taking grace.
And, I hope we’re watching our children and grandchildren do the same.
Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together. Psalm 34:3
I remember that day well … I got to witness it firsthand! Great day for me too as God blessed me with a giving, loving, and devoted friend … in addition to the one I already had in Kris! Congratulations! (Do I recognize that boat?)
I will always be grateful to the guy that put the smile back on my Grasshopper’s face…..praying that the smile stays there for those 50 years you are reaching for…Love you both….
Happy “welcome to my life” day! 🙂
Congratulations! God is so good!
Happy “meeting each other day!” Jimmy & I just celebrated our “meeting each other day” last week – 5 years! Wow, we sure did luck out! We deserved it too!!!!!
This makes me smile=)
That is beautiful. Isn’t it amazing when it is just right!!
You’ll still feel the same as your 30th approaches. Ours is at the end of June this year & we love each other more now than we did 20 years ago.
Now that is some sweetness.
