They were wrong...
By Melissa Cotter

People always said I would drag you down in life. They were wrong. You pulled me down beside you on our knees in prayer.

People always said it would be too hard to live in separate cities. They were wrong. We live together in each other’s hearts.

People said we wouldn’t finish a higher education. They were wrong. God brought us to our college graduation with honors.

People said I wasn’t pretty enough for you. They were wrong. Our relationship is a beautiful creation from God.

People said we were too different to last. They were wrong. We have forever to learn our common interests.

People said I didn’t have enough money to deserve you. They were wrong. I am richly blessed with your love.

People said we were too young to say, “I do.” They were wrong. From sweet 16 to our 60s, our commitment is an unbreakable tie.

People said we weren’t ready for a kid. They were wrong. God gave us a precious gift; a child, and an example of pure love in parenting.

People said we weren’t strong enough. They were right, because in our weakness, the Lord shows us His strength.

This is for everyone who was ever told they weren’t good enough; that they couldn’t make it. Those words are easily spoken, as God easily proves them wrong.
