today is a special day

I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.

- Song of Solomon 6:3

Happy birthday to  my wonderful husband,  Randy!

We just had a sermon series on Songs of Solomon, what a beautiful book!

I feel so lucky to have the kind of love that Solomon had for his wife, and that she had for him. 

God gave me the perfect partner in my Randy, and today’s song was sung at the ceremony where we renewed over wedding vows after 20 years:

When God Made You

It's always been a mystery to me

How two hearts can come together

And love can last for ever

But now that I have found you I believe

That a miracle has come

When God sends the perfect one

Now gone are all my questions about why

And I've never been so sure of anything

In my life

Oh I wonder what God

Was thinking

When he created you

I wonder if he

Knew everything I would need

Because he made all my dreams come true

When God made you

He must have been thinking about me

I promise that wherever you may go

Wherever life may lead you

With all my heart I'll be there too

And from this moment on

I want you to know

I'll let nothing come between us

And I will love the ones you love

Now gone are all my questions about why

And I've never been so sure of anything

In my life

I wonder what God was thinking

When he created you

I wonder if he

Knew everything I would need

Because he made all my dreams come true

When God made you

He must have been thinking about me

He made the sun

He made the moon

To harmonize a perfect tune

One can't move without the other

They just have to be together

And that is why I know it’s true

Your for me

And I'm for you

Because my world just can’t be right

Without you in my life

I wonder what God was thinking

When he created you

I wonder if he knew everything I would need

Because he made all my dreams come true

Happy birthday, baby, today I am thankful that I get to do life with you!

Have a blessed day!
