Still Like New

It was eleven years ago today that I asked Sandra to marry me. I'm still amazed at the entire story of our love, how God brought us together from such distant beginnings and how
He prepared us mentally, emotionally, and even physically for one another. In all my dreams I could never have prepared or created a woman more perfect to be my companion for life. I'm humbled and amazed by it all.

I knew when I proposed that I loved her. I knew I had never met another like her. I knew I wanted it to go on forever, and to never have to leave her arm at the end of the day again.

I thought I knew her so well...

Eleven years later, and I'm still getting to know her more, though. Certainly I know her more than I know any other person in the world. I know I can trust and depend on her like no other. Yet daily I find there is more to know, and I'm still excited and intrigued to know her more.

Certainly love has changed and changed us. I thank the LORD who brought us together and keeps us together, for keeping us fresh and "in love" as much as He gives us the ability to love one another.

Sandra, I love you.
