Fifty seven years ago my life took a dramatic change. Those who really knew me know very well what I am talking about. Today 57 years ago I married a gift from God, her name was Pat. She was the most beautiful girl that I had ever seen. And sweet, she was so sweet that sugar tasted bitter.
Most people who knew me back then would tell you that she probably had lost her mind marring me. But now I know, God had given her a mission, and that mission was me and I am so thankful for the time he let her share her life with me. The plan that God had, was giving us two beautiful daughters, two great son-in-law’s and two fantastic grandsons.
Most important Pat had her Salvation with Jesus Christ. I did not, the plan by Jesus was in place and I accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior. That part of the mission was the most important part, it was completed.
Pats death was another challenge as I had to learn to let her go. But with knowing that I would see her again came peace. I love her more today than yesterday, and I still miss her so….. much.
Happy Anniversary Pat, I love you and hope to see you again soon.
