Susan and Thomas Prokop "The baby's heart rate is dropping dangerously low with each contraction. We are going to have to do an emergency cesarean." David was born only minutes later weighing only 1lb. 3 oz. We never dreamed we would have to endure the heartache we experienced in our first 3 years of marriage. Looking back, we can see that God wanted to turn us around fast, and He was using some fairly drastic means to do it. [ 3879 more words. ] https://drbaggot.wordpress.com/2016/03/17/an-act-of-love

SallyAnn and Michael Gowen Never could I have envisioned the spiritual journey that awaited me when my husband, Mike, and I married in the Catholic Church in the spring of 1984. We were both in our early 20's, and Mike had three years of optometric college to complete.

Frank and Sherri Piechnik While my husband and I were dating, he asked the Lord to give him some definite directions regarding marriage. At that time he didn't believe that God wanted him to marry me, he was just using the opportunity to disciple me, since I was a new Christian. God did honor his prayer. As my husband was concluding his journey of reading through the entire Bible, he again asked the Lord to reveal His will regarding a marriage partner.
