21 years ago, I stood, dreadlocks brushed out, sweating in a suit, on a stage, waiting for you to join me at the altar…
I had no idea how things would pan out.
I had no idea how difficult the road would be.
I had no idea of how to be a good husband.
I had no idea of of what a good father was like.
I had no idea how to pick a good life partner.
In short, I had no idea.
Thankfully God did!
You are such an amazing woman, I’m blown away…
No matter which memory, which year, which project, which mammoth stuff up I think of…there you are:
Being selfless, faithful & honest, working on your stuff, loving, support, raising, training, loving and serving our family.
And of course…clinging on to Jesus with everything.
He has been our Rock and provider,
Our comfort and protector, our leader and guide:
Our all in all.
Where would we be without Him?
Thank you for turning to Him in your pain instead of trying to escape.
Thank you for allowing Him to lead when I could not
Thank you for leaning on Him when I had no strength left.
Thank you for relying on Him when I had nothing to give.
Thank you for trusting Him when it looked absurd.
Thank you for putting Him first, (good thing I’m not jealous 😂).
Thank you for being selfless and using your time to input and teach our children.
Thank you for sacrificing the niceties of life to prioritise rewards that are eternal.
Thank you for inspiring me, supporting me and standing up for me.
Thank you for forgiving me and showing me grace.
Thank you for loving me despite everything.
Thank you for directing me to Jesus, and reflecting His love to me.
In short, thank you!
You are an amazing person, I love the person you are.
You are His Masterpiece…princess of the King of Kings!
I love you 😍
Happy 21st Anniversary!
