Midway through the first quarter of the year an extremely nice man who attends my church came up to me. He handed over a cd that he recently compiled together and said, "I hope this encourage you young married couple." In awe, I gladly accepted and gave thanks. I left the cd in the car and being that my car doesn't have a cd player, I completely forgot about it. I cleaned out my car recently and found it again. Always trying to be appreciative of the blessings I've received, I took some time aside and sat down to listen to the playlist. Of course, the playlist genre is Hmong Christian and I can appreciate the language as well as the meaning behind each song. I was listening and it got me all teary eyed because not only is it a reminder to me that our fifth anniversary is less than three weeks away, but it reminded me that our marriage is truly God-given. It is God's provision and blessing for the both of us to meet when we did. It was the perfect date and time. It was well prepared by my God and I honestly get a little fluttery with the butterflies inside when I think about how God has set Jamy aside only for me and God waited until the perfect time to reveal him to me so that I can appreciate and love him whole-heartedly. God, You are perfect in every way! I can't fathom Your love and grace one single bit! Your timing is perfect!
I still can't believe our fifth year is coming to an end! How time flies! I can't lie and say all is perfect in a Christian marriage. I can't lie that sometimes I don't want to kill him and vice versa. One thing is for sure. It is only through the grace of God that we are where we are today. Ua txwj nkawm ib zag xwb... it is enough for me. Jamy, I've promised before (only God and you know the thousands of times that I've broken this promise) and I'll promise again. I will live every day of my life to love you more than the day before. One day we'll walk on fields of gold but until then...until then. I hate how hard you make my life sometimes but I love how you baby me (oOoops, my secret is out) so I guess it's worth it. I'm ready for our 6th year! I know it is not going to be easy but as long as we have God and each other, I think we'll be alright. I love you, babes!
