Hysterically Jimmy Carter tells that his wife, Rosalynn, turned him down the first time when he proposed. She shares that she told her father on his deathbed that she would finish college.
However, the two ended up getting married.
Jimmy says, “Every night we try to make sure that we completely reconcile from all the arguments during the day. For seventy-five years of marriage, we’ve always grown deeper in our love for one another.”
Marriage was originally designed by God. He intended for one man and one woman to come together and be joined. The intent was fellowship and reproduction. “That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24
