Triumphant Victorious Reminders
Inspired by the Holy Spirit

The landmarks that were set in the background from that memorable day on June 21, 1972, has led you both to this very moment from which your story began – From Seoul, South Korea, to Honolulu, Hawaii and finally to the Los Angeles, California airports. Think about this – so many moments, innumerable to count all the people walking by in that moment; in every terminal; goodbyes softly spoken; hellos excitedly shared; to the vacationers coming and going to the anticipated reunions and perhaps those mourning a loss to those who were starting all over again as fear caused their hands to sweat and their hearts to sink. Those many moments filled with people in every circumstance revolving around one another – yet in those moments, it was like a pause in the universe as you must have felt the joyful nervousness of being reunited assisted by adventure of unbridled love and the longing to start a life together in the unknown.
Meanwhile, as you stepped out into the world
of the unknown – misplaced faith in following this rare kind of love – this love
that crossed oceans and the great divide transformed into faith that was
intentionally placed in the Author of it all – Almighty God.
Dad and mom – your love for God – and your desperation
for Him is what has led to this milestone
504
months, 2,191 weeks, 15, 340 days and 368,170 hours later.

Your 42 year anniversary – may the both of
you have an anniversary with one another in which God is glorified and you both
benefit in ways never imagined, dreamed or could possibly have ever seen in the
greatest of books or movies. May you
see, experience and know that you both needed one another – one did not need
the other more than the other – instead God placed in each of you what the
other lacked and joined together in Him is what completed two beautiful people
in becoming one rare vessel that has made an impact over their children,
grandchildren and so many others that you have met along the way.
Blessings and favor abound in Him every day
and all the day long.
Love, Teresa “Twiggy”
