Hello Lovely People,

Happy Wedding Anniversary to my sweet husband.  I feel like we just got married, and now it is 22 years. You love me despite all my flaws. I wonder why did you marry me. I thought I would never get married because I wasn’t shown, good role models.  I realized that God is first before everything, and through him, he gave me you.  God is good, and I thank him for his grace and mercy.
1 Corinthians 13;4-5 says,
Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast. It is not proud. It does not dishonor others. It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
NIV: New International Version

Marriage is work, and anyone that tells you it’s not is lying to you.
If you are married, there are two steps you can take to freshen your marriage each day.
1. Put God first: Jay and I know that nothing works without God In Jesus Name, so our spiritual life is a priority. Did this happen? No, we made it a priority, and if one of us slips us, we make sure we check each other. A good bible study together is the BibleRecap with Tara Lee Cobble on Youversion Bible app.
2. Communicate: spend time together each day and talk. Life, kids, fur babies, and everything else that encompasses your day can take priority but make sure you both are spending time talking not just about the day but about each other. The time can be as little as 15 minutes, but there’s no set time. Just make it happen.
3. Be each other’s cheerleader: As a husband and wife, there’s no 50/50. It’s 100/100. You both have to go all-in with the relationship.

I am not a marriage expert, and again it seems like we just got married yesterday. However, I can tell you from 22 years of marriage experience that these tips are still part of our communication with each and our love language continues to grow when we do the work.

Honey, I love you, you are my best friend, Happy 22 years!
