Wife Number Four And No More For Me I'm Trusting God!!

I read Asha's Blog, low and behold, she is so right her first time around being married..... I learned why I'm married now for the fourth time and it's been 17 years already..... My longest marriage ever because God put us together in His own time.... I am so blessed to have this wife in my life especially after surviving a stroke 12 years ago now....

 

I met her at the bank when I went in to get a money order from a teller.... She was the supervisor and overheard my conversation with the teller about me not having to pay the money order fee because of my account I had there.... Long story short I gave her my business card thanking her for the help she provided the teller.... Well it took her a week before she called me up.... We talked, exchanged information, and found out we were both single and she had came to the city from New Orleans a year ago....

 

I said to myself, "God let this be the wife for me this time around for keeps." God answered my prayers to Him.... Six years later the stroke came calling my name and I'm so, so glad I have her in my life as my wife in my condition... God works miracles in the lives of His people I do believe.... She joined my church, we got married, she is in the choir and on the praise dance adult team.....

 

She came to the hospital every night to check on me and I was there six months wondering if I would ever go home again... She is still working at another bank after my stroke because she quit working for awhile to care for me at home after I got out the hospital.....

 

I am so proud of her in my life and in my almost helpless condition of today.... Just to think I worked at Walmart three years on my scooter after she went back to work at the bank but I was in much better condition than I am now.... She desires to work until she is 70 before retiring....

 

If you read my blog pray for us I'm sorta down at this time physically from the stroke and barely walking but I trust God will lift me up again soon... In Jesus name!!!!

I am glad you found your soulmate & right wife this time around. I feel in life we all go through life experience to learn & grow from it. so all experiences are lessons learnt. Marriages are all about adjustments from both sides, no one is perfect. We both have to adjust to each others imperfections.

Thanks for your replies to my blog as I forgot to mention I got married the first time in 1960 we had two kids, a girl in 1964 in Munich Germany and a boy in 1966 right here at Fort Hood, Texas where I am now...

 

I guess I can say I'm an old married man now because I got 55 years being married all total and 22 of those years in the Army and 10 years in the Postal service which i can say I enjoyed it all not wanting to ever live my life ALONE....

 

I saw how my mom was raising me and very lonely after my father passed away in 1955 so I joined the Army not knowing I would be shipped to Germany in 1958.....

 

As I sat there while the Berlin Wall was being build as a driver in my tank I found out how the world was the way it was as they shot people down while they were trying to escape across the mine fields from Berlin into Germany and we couldn't do nothing to help them get out

 

I can say this wife I got now would never leave me alone and she wants to stay working at the bank as a supervisor/manager until she is 70 years young..... To me and for me love is a wonderful thing it just didn't develop in my earlier years being married to the first three wives....

 

I married this wife the same year my first wife passed away so things are great for us and no more marriages for me or for us.....

 

Thank God I made the adjustments needed to stay married to this wife and she was only married one time to her daughter's father....

Just as many young girls do she had a son at 17 so we both have two children but she had sense enough to only get married once before me... Every one, that is, man or woman want to be married one time to the right person in my opinion....
