I married my wife, Yuni, a few months ago. I met my wife almost a year ago. Outside of my salvation, marrying Yuni was the best decision that I ever made. It was a decision that I covered in prayer.
From the first moment that I saw her, I knew she was for me. I knew that God was giving me a blessing. I knew that years of prayer were being answered, in one definitive moment.
The next few months became a blur. I spent hours & hours communicating. Thousands on thousands of text messages. The most I have ever written. The most I have ever communicated in such a short time.
Around this time, I was struggling with returning to drinking & even smoking weed. What is crazy is that I had quit both of those things for almost ten years, since I became a Christian in 2012. Yet when I moved to Naples Florida, that struggle in my life returned.
With her help, with her love, with her companionship, I just didn’t. It’s a combination of prayer & wisdom from God as well. However, I saw my future with her & I didn’t want that future to include addiction.
Being around Yuni, made life better. Literal hours would go by and those hours felt like minutes. My mind was beyond intrigued, it felt for the first time in several years, it had found a companion. Someone who would never get tired of me & that I would never get tired of either.
I thank my wife for that assistance. She never forced it, I don’t even know if she prayed to be honest. But I do know that her presence gave my life new hope. She, just by being near me, encouraged me to be a better man.
The most important quality of my wife is her discipline. My wife doesn’t quit. She achieves what she sets her mind on. She reaches her goals.
The LORD brought me a wife. The LORD brought me a gift. Any gift that the LORD brings is good.
I love you Yuniet.
