Ten years ago today to be precise. There isn't a very succint way to compress ten years of life into one blog post so I won't try. Instead I'll post a picture.
Of all the pictures from our wedding day, I feel like this one captures the joy of the moment the best- just after we had exited the sanctuary and were on our way to our unknown future.
That unknown future has brought with it joy and sorrow, success and failure, the birth of four children, and the death of two. But after all of that, I can only give glory to God that the joyful smiles are still on our faces and our marriage is strong, despite all the unknowns. From the painful experiences of friends and loved ones over the past few years, I know that God has been very merciful to us. It makes me humble, and even a bit afraid- but a good kind of fear. A fear that keeps me begging for that daily mercy to love and serve, even as Christ has loved and served us.
I love you Stephen.
