“And grateful for every other bit of solid advice and encouragement in between.”
“I’m often asked for marriage advice. What’s the secret? Lord knows I will never write a book about it because we are still learning every year, every day.”
“Grace. Grace. Grace. Communication (which is so important but difficult when one partner isn’t willing.) Sex. Laughter. Patience. Lots of patience.”
“Love (a verb. which must be put into action, it’s not just a feeling.)”
“No marriage is picture-perfect,” she continued.
“Not one. And certainly not ours. But through thick and thin, ups and downs, God has blessed us tremendously with guidance and perseverance. I believe God is the secret sauce.”
Candace concluded: “I have more love for this man today than the day we married each other. And I know he does for me . Praise the Lord.”
