Can’t imagine that another year has passed… it seemed just like yesterday when my wife and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary.

Marriage and GodAll of a sudden it’s March 24 again and we’re chalking up another year of togetherness with all the ups and downs that come with it.  But this particular anniversary is extra special for us, because we are not just simply celebrating our life together as husband and wife as we always do every year… this is the first anniversary we are observing with the Lord at the center of our relationship!

Though it’s been 7 years now, our marriage seems to have been jump-started anew ever since we entered community… because only now have we really engaged in a relationship with God taking the driver’s seat.

Happy Anniversary, honey!  This day is more meaningful to me because our Lord takes the lead and we simply follow in faith.  Our marriage is not in our hands anymore, but in His.  Tests and trials are to be expected as usual but I know that this time each hurdle brings us closer to God and further strengthens our bond with one another.

Praise God for you… for us… and for the anniversaries that are yet to come.  I love you very much.  Hamwah!



Pathways

I’m looking forward to attending Elim’s “Pathways: An Encounter With God renewal seminar” this Saturday at Balanga, Bataan.  The Pathways is a weekend renewal seminar for all who want to come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

This seminar includes talks, sessions and spiritual exercises that are all geared towards making you come to know and love Our Lord.

My wife and I will be spending the weekend together and at the same time spending it with the Lord.  Praise God for this special “time out”.
