Today is the first day of blogging my journey of my walk in faith with my husband Ben. The lord has richly blessed me in every way possible in my life. On November 17, 2007 I married Benjamin Paul Hays and blindly took a leap of faith and made a commitment to Christ that I would return my heart and soul to him. The first year of our marriage, I spent many countless nights on my knees praying for the strength to get me through Ben’s deployment to Afghanistan. It by far was the hardest test of my faith. I kept in constant prayer that the Lord would return my husband to me. It seemed to be the longest year of my life, What a wonderful way to celebrate the birth of Christ with a gift of having my husband returned to me safely! The best Christmas I have ever had! The whole family was home!
As the New Year has started, Ben and I have committed to start the first “real” year of marriage together, growing in Christ. We are attending a marriage class at Hilldale Baptist Church, led by Bro. Terry Brown. We are so excited to have some foundations to begin our journey together. Bro Terry also was who conducted our marriage counseling and helped us make the decision that God had chose us for each other. We will follow together…
Thank you Lord for my husband… I am richly blessed
