I know that this next fact is difficult to believe, but it is absolutely true. Kelly Jo was crazy enough to marry me! Yes, she was!
Maybe even more difficult to believe, as she aged and matured and should have gotten smarter, she was crazy enough to keep me. I have been blessed way beyond measure and I am well aware of it.
God At Work
When I say I was lacking in brains as a young man, please do not think that I am speaking metaphorically. I did not have the sense that God gave a goose and thankfully, Kelly Jo was too young or in love to notice.
Not only was I lacking in brains, I had gaping holes in my character as well. I had dedicated my life to God, I had even preached from God's Word, but I had a long way to go to be a man who was going to be a good husband and a good man.
Thank God for grace.
Thank God for God's power and strength.
Thank God for His guidance and protection.
AND
Thank God for a patient woman that loved fervently and lived faithfully and took me along with her.
Together we made some right decisions early on and a few timely decisions at perilous points along the way. That allowed God access to us when we might have closed Him out otherwise. Again, Praise God for grace.
Wednesday Pre-Anniversary
We went for a pre-anniversary meal yesterday. It was so wonderful to spend a few hours with Kelly Jo, we may go for an actual anniversary meal today.😎
The steak was so good that I wanted to eat the bone. I could not eat it, but I did chew on it a while!😍
I think we have some more places to go by HIS grace.
Thank you for going with me, KJo. I love you more than a hog loves slop!
Thank you all for joining us today.
