The planets were aligned just right that perfect Saturday in July five years ago. My closest friends and family were there to witness the promise Kara and I made to live with each other in times of blessing and times of want; times of excitement and times of boredom; when the doctors report comes back good and when it comes back with a devastating bite.
Just because two people have a wedding license does not mean they are married. Just because you wear a ring on your finger does not mean you are husband or wife.
It's a daily choice. Love is much deeper than a feeling or a motive. It's a daily decision to believe that God is working in the midst of your shortcomings, her shortcomings, and both of your differences.
I've been choosing Kara every day for the last five years . . . and I will for the next fifty to come.

Happy Anniversary, Brother! It's great to see examples of faithfulness in young couples like you guys. I've been choosing my wife for the past 6 1/2 months and I plan on it for the next however long God gives us. Blessings to you and your family!
Thanks so much for sharing. I can picture Kara coming down the aisle to that music and beaming.
