We don’t have to look to far in our world today to hear stories of broken marriages and relationships. They are everywhere.
Many marriages are failing and falling apart.
The sad part is that with all this negative news on marriage we often forget that there are many marriages that are thriving and growing. There are many marriages that are “beating the odds.”
These stories seem to get overlooked.
An inspirational love story
Recently I came across an inspirational love story. It is the story of Ian and Larissa. It is such a powerful and inspirational story that I had to share it.
As you watch you might want to have a Kleenex close by.
Here is their story:
You can follow Ian and Larissa’s ongoing story on Larissa’s blog “Pray for Ian.”
What is your response to this story?
Hi Kevin,
I haven’t watched the video yet, but what I can say for now is that you’re right, we often first notice those failed marriages and tend to overlook the ones that are doing really well.
I’m so glad that my mom and dad have stuck through thick and thin for 20+ years and still going strong, and whenever there were minor or major problems going on in our lives, they never blame us or make us feel bad.
Thanks for sharing this post, as I have come to realize how lucky I am to have my parents
