8 Year Anniversary

Today David and I are celebrating our 8 year anniversary. 8 YEARS! We have lived a lifetime in that time. Little did I know what our lives would be like. I did see adventure when I married David, however, I had no idea how much I would enjoy the ride. I knew that when I met him I would follow him anywhere. And that's a good thing since we have lived in 8 different homes across 3 different states and now another country. We have been shaped individually but more importantly in our marriage, at every new turn. I am so blessed by God to have been given the gift of David. He is my support, my friend, my confidence, my laughter, my covering and well I'm blushing but my lover. He was hand picked by God as a gift not only to enjoy myself more on this earth but to shape me and mold me to be more like Jesus. How do you place value on that? What is that worth? Yet, he is the priceless gift that God created just for me. He is a one of a kind creation and I get to keep him. Did I start off 8 years ago seeing all this? Of course not, I hadn't a clue. But I learned that marriage is actually God's idea and well, he knows how it it's suppose to work. And you know what, I listened to God. And you know something else HE was right.



So I was trying to download this song today but couldn't so I will write the lyrics. I will try to get the song up



Something brought you to my mind today I thought about the funny ways you make me laugh And yet I feel like it's okay to cry with you Something about just being with you When I leave I feel like I've been near God And that's the way it ought to be...


CHORUS: 'Cause you've been more than a friend to me You fight off my enemies 'Cause you've spoken the Truth over my life And you'll never know what it means to me Just to know you've been on your knees for me Oh, you have blessed my life More than you'll ever know, yeah, yeah, yeah More than you'll ever know, yeah, yeah, yeah


You had faith, when I had none You prayed God would bring me a brand new song When I didn't think I could find the strength to sing And all the while I'm hoping that I'll Do the kind of praying for you that you've done for me And that's the way it ought to be...
You have carried me You have taken upon a bruden that wasn't your own And may the blessing return to you A hundredfold, oh yeah... A hundredfold, oh yeah...
