A Quiet Time with God

“Stille” Married

Yes, 30 years and “stille” married. As Jean and I celebrate our 30th Anniversary (July 2, 2013), its amazing to me how God can take the ordinary, add HIS extra and you get EXTRAORDINARY! If I had to describe the last 30 years marriage with one word it would be EXTRAORDINARY. Jean and I were 19 and 22 years of age in 1983 when we were married. We did not have biblical or spiritual pedigree in our families that we could look at and see successful marriages, but God had a plan for our marriage. His plan was and is that through our marriage He would be GLORIFIED on the earth. He started with our

1.)REDEMPTION (salvation)

2.) POSTERITY (our children)

3.) HIS MINISTRY (the calling)

All of our blessings today come from the REDEMPTIVE act of JESUS. Men and women who place their trust in Jesus have access to the promises of GOD. We are still married because of the REDEMPTIVE ACT . We are still married because of our children. The Word of God says, “…and the two shall become one”. Our children are the evidence of our “ONENESS.” We are still married because of HIS MINISTRY that HE called us to. God is calling everyone. He is that GREAT and THE CALL is that GREAT. Jean and I are so grateful HE called us and we answered the call.

He called us to SALVATION

He called us to Marriage

He called us to Ministry.

When you have a marriage BUILT BY GOD after 1 year or MANY YEARS, you can be

STILLE….MADLY IN LOVE

STILLE…..KISSING

STILLE….DATING

STILLE….HOLDING HANDS

STILLE…. SMILING

STILLE….SAYING I LOVE YOU

STILLE….PRAISING THE LORD

May God’s blessing reign in your marriage and family!

ALL FOR HIS GLORY AMEN
