REMEMBERING
THE ANNIVERSARY

Topics: Anniversaries; Family; Husbands; Marriage; Time

Reference: Ephesians 5:25–33

Margaret said her husband, George, couldn’t remember their wedding anniversary on March 7. But one year, when they were en route to Australia, at five minutes before midnight on March 6, George proudly looked at Margaret and said, “This year I remembered. Just five more minutes till our anniversary.”

Just then the pilot announced, “We have crossed the International Date Line. It’s now March 8.”
