When I began praying for a husband and the qualities that I wanted, I really did think to myself on numerous occasions “Am I ever going to find him?” Honestly, I was completely satisfied with my life. I was single, living in a huge city, studying in college and ok with where I was. When I moved back to Arkansas I realized there was still something missing. I knew deep down inside though, I eventually wanted to get married, have children and have the house with the white picket fence, but I was also ok with the fact that if God did not want me to marry then that was his will and plan for my life.
When I met L, and we began dating, I realized all those qualities in which I had prayed for in a husband were in him, but I thought to myself “a man doesn’t just get these; someone has to teach boys this”. Soon after I meant Lynn {little did I know then he would soon become my FIL} I saw in Lynn where L got this from.
Today Lynn celebrated his birthday. L and I are continually blessed by him and his 34 years of marriage to L’s mom. They together inspire us, demonstrate love, compassion, and are complete genuine people to both L and I. L and I are so blessed to have them in our lives and continue to encourage us as newlyweds.
Lynn has instilled in L and his older brother Bryan, qualities and attributes that still amaze me. I We thank God for him today and we thank him also for the example and leadership he has set and continues to set each and every day.
