42 years

Post by Sidro »

Woke up this morning and realized as of today I have been married to the same woman 42 years. My only regret at this time is that I am pretty sure we will not get 42 years more together.

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,[a] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Fantastic!! I wish you many more. I'll have to be 98 years old to make 50 years marriage but how things are going, it would be wonderful.
