In many ways it is hard to imagine that five years have already gone by, and in others it feels so natural that it's like things have been this way forever.
Five years ago today, I gained the greatest blessing any man on Earth could gain: a godly, loving, gorgeous, and simply wonderful wife.
Whether it be the miracle of the events leading up to that union or the things that have happened since them, it all comes from the hand of God on high, and He deserves every ounce of praise for it. He kept us both safely to the point where we met (despite various issues we met along the way). He brought each of us into a place in which we would meet. He caused both our emotional and spiritual relationships to prosper. He cleared away the obstacles that stood in our path. Finally, after four years of knowing each other, He blessed us to become man and wife on October 20th, 2007.
How could I describe the past five years better than to call them the best years of my life. My existence has been completed in a way that cannot be expressed adequately in words. Marriage to Angela has been more than I ever could have imagined.
I have always desired love. For almost my entire life I had thought about and waited to find someone of my own. I had always envisioned a romantic love of deep emotional connection, but that was so much less than we have.
There is no better way to describe it than the biblical way. She really is "bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh." She is a part of me. God designed her to be a perfect match for me.
There is so much more to say, and maybe sometime soon I can really get it out. The problem is that I miss her too much writing this too keep going.
Thank you LORD for giving me my wonderful wife! She is more than I ever have and ever can deserve!
