Recipe for a great marriage:
1 girl who loves God
1 boy who loves God
1 cup of laughter
2 cups of grace
1 cup prayer
1 cup prayers of the people
16 oz. of blood, sweat and tears
32 oz. of joy
Mix it altogether.
Bake in a few trials.
Tie it all up with the twine of the Holy Spirit.
I love you Carl!
Thanks for a wonderful 25 years.
Oh what the Lord has done in our lives together and
what He has yet to surprise us with in the years to come.
I am so glad that you and I get to be in the front row together
to witness His glory!
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we
ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout
all generations, for ever and ever!
Amen.
Ephesians 3: 20,21
His work has been immeasurable in both of us!
Keep up the good work. We love you both!
