Don’t you know anything? Haven’t you been listening? God doesn’t come and go. God lasts. He’s Creator of all you can see or imagine. He doesn’t get tired out, doesn’t pause to catch his breath. And he knows everything, inside and out. He energizes those who get tired, gives fresh strength to dropouts. For even young people tire and drop out, young folk in their prime stumble and fall. But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles, They run and don’t get tired, they walk and don’t lag behind. (Isaiah 40:28-31 MSG)
Here we are 33 years ago...
In the midst of our 33 years of committed love and care for each other you can believe there’s been many ups and downs, countless tests and difficulties, times of deep discouragement, moments of paralyzing fear, seasons of austerity, sickness and pain, episodes of frustration and disappointments. We’ve navigated through storms and at times traveled a rocky road BUT in our race together GOD has come along always, by our side, standing true to His promises, showing His faithfulness, lifting His strong right arm on our behalf, holding us when we were about to faint, strengthening us when we were getting up from a fall. GOD, our lasting companion, from whom we have received all that makes us one in Him, our children, a testimony, a legacy.
For the next 33 years, if God grants them to us, we will continue to love Him first and love each other, grow in faith and faithfulness to Him first and to each other, to serve Him first and to each other, and to continue our journey together, the three of us, for His glory!
... and here we are again, going strong!
