What Is Sixty Years
Contributed by Jason Bonnicksen on May 15, 2011 (message contributor)
WHAT IS SIXTY YEARS
What is sixty years worth? The last sixty years have paid tribute to the election of ten U.S. Presidents. Yuri Gagarin, sixty years ago in April, rocketed into history as the first human to travel beyond the clouds, and to orbit around the earth for nearly two hours. Sixty years is the span of my life, plus eighteen more. Sixty is equivalent to three times the number of years my wife and I’ve been married, with still three more to go.
Sixty years celebrates the first, diamond anniversary: a tribute to those who’ve made an enduring commitment to honor the covenant of time-honored marriage. For those of you who are blessed to have been married this long, we thank you for showing future generations how to honor with courage, your commitment to marriage, the to the one who has no beginning and no end.
