True Life Story!


Sometimes, nobody gets it. You look around you and it seems you have many relationships, but few connections. You are in the midst of people, yet disconnected. You are by a stream, yet thirsty.
Now you are married, it seemed like it was never going to happen. Today, you look back and it is 15 years already. While you think about the hurdles, the trials, the challenges and the victories, as you sip your cup of tea…you hear a knock and it’s your son, your five-year-old gem, God’s gift, you could not have asked for a better son. As he cuddles you, you look at the wall and on it are your wedding pictures, your graduation picture and your vacation pictures. Behind them are histories and stories that can take weeks to illustrate the different acts and scenes.
Then it dawns on you that your life is not for you…the purpose of your life is bigger than your life. Your life, your marriage, your experiences, your failures, your triumphs were all designed to lift another marriage, another family, lighten another person’s burden. You are a shining light designed to illuminate other people’s darkness, ignorance, and pain.
Your marriage is a ministry – ministry means service; serve others with your romance story.
