Twenty-Five years ago TODAY

This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.

Every day is a blessing from God, but today is even more special to me. Twenty-five years ago today, Dorinda Rutherford walked the aisle of her church to become my beautiful bride. I have NEVER regretted even a moment of it. God truly smiled on me that first day at Central Bible College when Dorinda walked into my life and I was mesmerized by her beauty. I knew instantly that she was the one God created for me.

She is the most beautiful, godly, sweet woman I have ever known. She is the epitome of integrity and character. I truly love everything about her.

She is a Lady, and yet much, much more than a Lady...she is my Lady.

I want to use some lyrics from a secular song to help describe how I feel on this special day:

Thanks for the times

That youve given me

The memories are all in my mind

And now that weve come

To (our 25th anniversary)

Theres something

I must say out loud

Youre once, twice

Three times a lady

Yes youre once twice

Three times a lady

And I love you

When we are together

The moments I cherish

With every beat of my heart

To touch you to hold you

To feel you to need you

Theres nothing to keep us apart

Youre once twice

Three times a lady

And I love you

I love you

"Thank you baby for 25 years. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn't change a thing. After all of these years I still say, "I Do!" I can't wait to renew our vows today!"
