Thanking God for 62 Years of Marriage

Lord Jesus, I thank you for 62 years of marriage with my wife Marilynn and all the life you have given us — inviting each us to have a special encounter with you forty-eight years ago on back to back evenings; our four married children, their spouses, and thirteen children; our special daughter born with Down syndrome who teaches us about your love and ways; a baby lost in miscarriage whom we have never met; our health; and your provision for our daily needs.

Though challenges have been encountered, your presence has seen us through them even when we may not have recognized that you were there.    

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.  For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness through all generations.” (Psalm 100: 4-5)

    Bill — Well done for a life well lived. 62 years, amazing. Clare and I are in our 40th year and have been incredibly blessed.

    Looking forward to the wedding in August, my mom will also be attending.
