“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and Your dominion
endures throughout
all generations.
The Lord is faithful
in all His words
and kind
in all His works.”
Has not the LORD made them one? In flesh and spirit they are His. And why one? Because He was seeking godly offspring. So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your youth.
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
He that rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of the Lord
The groom, a young widower and farmer, had recently landed in
John Rolfe, along with the governor, discipled Pocahontas, read to her from the Bible, and taught her to read and memorize scripture. She professed faith in Christ and was baptized, renouncing her former paganism – a demonic worship that included child sacrifice.
Their wedding, blessed by her father, brought peace between the settlers and Indians, called “the Peace of Pocahontas.”
Both bride and groom were used by God to establish a colony based on Christianity. Virginia Governor, John Smith, said that, “God made Pocahontas” and credited her with saving the settlement. “[S]he next, under God, was still the instrument to preserve this colony from death, famine and utter confusion.”
John Rolfe would save the colony economically by developing the major cash crop, tobacco. Through difficulty starting a new colony he refused to be discouraged calling

Bev & I just celebrated our 30th a couple of months ago. I have often said that my one regret is that I didn't meet and marry her five years earlier! Blessings on your special day.
Happy Anninversary! I love long lasting marriages, such a wonderful testimony.
Beautiful! Happy 30th
Bruce, Dad totally agrees. He asks Mom if she would have married him ten years sooner. She says, "I was 16 and you weren't a Christian yet."
We married at 24. I was the first man that ever kissed her. I wish that purity went both ways. A lot of regrettable things happened in that time, that wouldn't have, had I met her then. We also would probably have managed to have a couple more kids in that time :). But I am very grateful for the 30 we've had, and would love 30 more.
We celebrated 36 recently! May God be praised for all these long marriages!
We will be celebrating our 9th in just over 2 weeks. :) I look forward to 30
Congrats on 30. I have heard the stats say that is extreamly rare these days. most jsut live common law. :(
