Tomorrow is our anniversary.
Mrs. DM and I will be officially married for seven years tomorrow. This is a very significant number for me (besides being the perfect number in Scripture.)
My first marriage lasted merely six years and a few months. To say the last year of it was turbulent would be an understatement.
I am so grateful for Mrs. DM.
On our wedding day, I could not help but smile and laugh through the whole event. It was the happiest day of my life.
God was restoring what was taken (and then some!)
The differences between my first marriage and my marriage to Mrs. DM are stark. It matters greatly who you marry. I made a much better choice the second time around 😉
So many changes happened around that day seven years ago. I married, moved, started a new job, and became a father to Munchkin (then almost three years old). However, I could not have been happier.
Not all change is bad. Sometimes, God brings changes into our lives to bless us. That was truly the case this time seven years ago.
I share this as a success story and testimony that second marriages can and do thrive. You do not have to believe the lies that you are forever doomed to misery and living alone if you divorce a cheater.

*As this is my anniversary weekend, I am going away with Mrs. DM to celebrate. So, this will be my only post this weekend. I wish you all well and may you experience the loving, kindness of our Living God.
