A Message from Garth on Marriage

Marriage life!! Ah!! Some of us smile, some of us bite down real hard!! They say that the FIRST YEAR of marriage is the hardest. But hold on, they also say that the first FIVE YEARS of marriage are the hardest. If that’s the case, Lindsey and I need to prepare for many-a-pillow-fight battles!!! For me, when I look back to my first eight months of marriage and even the engagement, I am overwhelmed by the blessings that the good Lord has poured into my life. I never thought I would, not only be married to such a beautiful, intelligent, and loving woman, but that I would share my life with a woman that actually gets me!! I can’t begin to describe how much fun this marriage has been, every day has been a blast. Lindsey and I agreed in the beginning of our marriage that we are going to be a family with no regrets, if we want to do something or go somewhere to just do it, and we have been. The Lord brought us together and I am forever in His debt. As long as we continue to let His love grow in us and lead us, we will always experience the fulfilling marriage that He intended for us.
