Counting the Blessings - One Year Later


It is hard to believe that it has been a year since we have started our journey as a family. Time flew by fast, much faster than we expected. It has been one of the best years of my life. People warned us that it might be tough in the beginning, that adjustment to family life will not be so easy especially since we were both in our early 30s, we both had our own way in life. But I praise God for a wonderful and smooth year. Was is always easy? No, it was not. But with God and because of our commitment to solve our differences right away, we can say that sea was calm.

It has been wonderful to work together, serve together, grow together, learn together, laugh together (and let me tell you, we have a lot of fun!!!), travel the world  together, encourage and help each other! I had an idea how I wanted marriage to be but the reality is far better than my expectations. 


I thank God for a wonderful, sensitive, God-loving, humble, mission-minded, fun-loving husband and for his determination to honour God through every aspect of his life and of our relationship. His love for God and people is an inspiration for me. I could not have asked for a better husband. He is my prayer partner, my traveling partner, my mission partner. He is everything I have asked from God.

I do not think that I was ever so excited about the future. And I am thankful that it is God who gives us a hope and a future!
