I've only been married for 2 and a half years but I can't wait to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary too! :D All because I was very inspired by today's celebration of my aunt and my uncle's silver wedding anniversary and renewal of vows. In my honoring for them, I thought I should share it in my blog and hopefully my readers will be as inspired as I was.
Let love
be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another
with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be
slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be
patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the
saints and seek to show hospitality.
-Romans 12:9-18
These are the verses that best represent the secret of
their 25 years of marriage.
- My family has been living under their roof for 6
years now and we’ve witnessed with our very eyes the genuine love they have for
each other all these years.
- We’ve seen their kindheartedness in doing good not
only to the family but also to other people outside the family and it’s all by
the grace of God.
- My uncle never fails to surprise my aunt
especially on important occasions like this. He can be so cheap on himself but
when it comes to my aunt, he can be so generous. Like my husband, he’s also a
member of the “happy wife happy life club” ;)
- My aunt’s love for my uncle is relentless like
her fervent love for the Lord. She’s been supportive and proud of him in everything
he does and she values his decisions as the head of the household.
- We’ve seen how faithful they both are to the
Lord by serving Him through our CFC community and through our church.
- We hardly see them in arguments or raising their
voice at each other, but when they get into one, they are quick to forgive one
another.
- We are beyond thankful and grateful to them for
their warm hospitality in providing shelter for us and for their selfless love.
All these and more are what makes their marriage a testimony
of a marriage designed by the Lord.
And what God binded together, let no man separate. –Mark 10:9
Alan and I are inspired by your love for one another. My mom,
my sisters and I are blessed to be part of this family. May your marriage persevere
until the very end and may you keep touching other people’s lives. We love you!
Happy 25th wedding anniversary!
