Hello 
It’s my first time posting in this community, and I am truly happy to be here, especially as this is the last Sunday of the year 2025.
My heart is full of gratitude because God has been so faithful throughout the year. Looking back at how the year began and how it is ending, I can boldly say that it is only by His grace that my family and I are still standing.
This year came with its ups and downs, challenges, and victories. There were moments that were difficult, and times I felt overwhelmed and unsure of what the next step would be.
However, through it all, God has been faithful. He carried me and my family through every trial, every uncertainty, and every moment of doubt, even you reading this post today, it is by God’s mercy and faithfulness that we are alive and able to reflect on the year.
Truly, God has been good beyond words.
Today is very special because we celebrated my friend’s 25th wedding anniversary. It was a joyful, beautiful, and memorable occasion filled with thanksgiving and reflection. In a time when many marriages face serious challenges and pressures, it was inspiring to celebrate a couple who has remained strong, loving, and faithful through every season of life. Their journey is a reminder that marriage, though not always easy, can stand the test of time when God is placed at the centre.
According to the preacher of the day, marriage is a sacred union ordained by God, where a man and a woman become one flesh (Genesis 2:24). It is built on love, commitment, patience, forgiveness, and mutual respect. Husbands are called to love their wives sacrificially, just as Christ loves the Church, and wives are encouraged to respect and support their husbands (Ephesians 5:25, 33). When God is truly at the center, marriages can thrive, grow stronger, and produce joy and fruitfulness.
My friend’s marriage is blessed with four lovely children, which is a testimony of God’s faithfulness over the years. Truly, no one can fully predict what marriage will be like at the beginning, but with God, one can look back with gratitude and also look ahead with hope and confidence.
As this year comes to an end, my heart remains full of gratitude to God for life, family, love, protection, and every victory, both seen and unseen. May we all continue to walk in His grace, mercy, and favour in the coming year, trusting Him for greater testimonies ahead.
Thank you for stopping by my blog,
Compliment of the season !!!!!
