The book of Proverbs says that "He who finds a wife finds a good thing." Well, I have found a great thing! The New Living Translation (NLT) says "finds a treasure". I love that! I found my treasure almost 40 years ago and married her 39 years ago today.
She is truly the best thing that ever happened to me. I know it has become cliche to say that, but it is true. My wife has completed me, given me awesome children who have made us so proud and given us grandchildren. All of the hundreds of little things that she has done on a daily basis, without complaint, for the last 39 years were the reason that I could do what I did.
We have been successful in life because of her. Marriage is truly a partnership and one is not above the other or more important than the other. One hundred percent commitment, communication, and selfless love, combined with a joint relationship with God have been the keys to our successful marriage.
I look forward to many more years of marriage to this beautiful woman that I love so dearly!
Proverbs 18:22 (NKJV) - "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the LORD."
