Prayer request from corn country
A sweet young couple, one of whom attends my church, is considering marriage, but sad to say, they're religiously divided. He's a Deere man, and she likes Internationals. At least it's not a Ford/Chevy divide, or else I fear they'd have to break up.
2 comments:
traditionally, she would be expected to take her husband's preference in marriage.
in her corner, the wife typically gets to drive the new one, anyway.
Well, I know another religiously divided family in Colorado--same scenario--and they've got five kids now. I think that's what happened......
....but boy was she ticked when my wife and I got them both new Deere caps as part of their wedding gift!
