Wow! It’s been 5 years since we said, “I do!” in front of our family and friends, making a covenant before Almighty God.
5 years equates to… 1,825 days which equates to… 43,800 hours!
What can I say, “I’m analytical… I studied electrical engineering!” (smile)
These last 5 years have been quite a journey. There been been UPs, tremendous Highs, as well as some character-building growth!
Marlon & Syreeta's 5-year Wedding Anniversary TODAY
And I must say, “Marriage has truly blessed my life!”
My marriage has allowed me to grow in ways that have made me a better person.
Marriage has chiseled me to be more selfless, giving and caring!
And this did not just happen immediately after we said, “I do!”
Rather, it’s been a process!
For any two people to live together under the same roof, there will be times when you have disagreements, difference of opinions, and maybe even some blown-out arguments.
Trust me! It happens! Yes, even in the life of the “Motivator.” (smile)
But I must say, what has been and will continue to be the glue to our marriage is keeping God in the middle of our marriage and family.
One of the BIGGEST ways that marriage has personally blessed me is that it has allowed me to grow in my faith and trust in God. I pray more often and seek God’s wisdom by reading the Bible more consistently.
7 years ago, I truly do believe that God orchestrated the opportunity for me to meet Syreeta. Everything was in alignment for us to meet at the exact right time, in the exact right place, for the exact right reason.
AMAZING!
Years ago, a deacon at our church shared with me that the prayer he prays daily is: “God, please make this the best day of my wife’s life and use me to make that happen!”
Wow! That’s deep!
So today is our 5-year wedding anniversary!
I thank my family and friends who have personally blessed our marriage with loving prayers, kind words and thoughtful actions.
I thank God for bringing Syreeta to me and making her my wife because as the Bible states, “He that finds a wife, finds a good thing.”
And I thank Syreeta for loving me and encouraging me to be ALL that I am destined to be! “Baby, you are a blessing to me! YLFK”
