Jerry and Pauline: a marriage transformed
Jerry
As we entered our marriage in 1970. I brought a love for Pauline but also a temperament that meant I could be moody, jealous, and would avoid confrontation.
Pauline
I brought a love for Jerry and baggage from a dysfunctional family which affected me with low self worth, rejection and a pile of other stuff.
When we met Jesus 8 years later God slowly helped us to become better people.
Jerry
I had to allow God to open my heart and work through my issues.
Pauline
I also had to open my heart and let God bring healing to my emotions.
Over the years God has helped us both to be less selfish, more loving and considerate of one another. It has not always been easy but we know that we wouldn't still be together if we didn't have Jesus in our lives.
