Today is a big day in the Zuraff household. Rebecca and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. WOW! 25 years! One quarter of a century! Before I go any further, I want to give all the credit to my Lord Jesus Christ, John 15:5. Our marriage would have ended up on the scrap heap of human misery and suffering if it wasn't for the Lord. Several years before I met Rebecca, I came across the following verse at a bible study. Prov. 18:22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. Our pastor told us single guys, if we wanted a wife, we needed to ask God for one. From that day forward, I began to pray and ask the Lord for a wife. Six years later I married Rebecca. We serve an AWESOME God Who is good all the time.
A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since we were married on this date in 1982. Three children who now are trying to establish themselves , we have gotten older and have grayed and have grown out instead of up, I have lost so much hair, I have to wear a cap while in the sun, our parents are gone, we moved from Texas to Oklahoma, (God's Country), I can retire from my job when I want too, and the first of our three sons will be married in June, and another will begin basic training in the U.S. Air Force this Fall.
We are headed for the gold now, but that is 25 years away and I would be 82 years of age. And Rebecca? She'd be...oh, I better not say! It is doable if the Lord wills, but my preference is for our Lord to return for us before then. Thank you Lord for 25 years of marriage, three sons, family, friends, Brethren, and for loading us with your benefits all these years. Thank you Rebecca for being a Proverbs 31 wife who loves me very much. May the Lord always be praised.

The new website design looks nice. But wouldn't it look nicer if you reversed the order of the OU and FSU photos on the top right?
