"I sure have changed, haven't I?" 

She just looked at me and smiled. I wondered what she was smiling about
but I was not going to ask her for fear she would tell me. 

Then she brought out the other pictures. There were pictures of our
wedding, which I really could not remember. Oh yes, I remember getting 
married, but I did not know we were that young. Is it legal to get 
married when you are that young? 

Looking at those wedding pictures, I said something perhaps I should not
have said, "Now, I know why you married me. I was so handsome back 
then." 

Looking at me for a moment, she finally said, "No, I married you for
your money." 

We look at each other for a moment, and then both of us broke out in
hysterical laughter. I may have had good looks back then, but I 
certainly did not have any money. 

Of course, today I have neither good looks nor money. 

Then there were the pictures of our children as they were born. I had
forgotten how young they were when they were born. 

Then there was that wonderful picture of all of us as a family. My wife,
our three children and I are setting together for this photograph. 

Wow! It does not seem possible that that is what we looked like way back
then. 

We spent the rest of the evening picking up pictures and saying, "Do you
remember this picture?" Of course, my wife could remember more of the 
pictures than I could. I was however, getting a good picture of what 
our life was back then, how things have changed. 

That evening I thought of what the apostle Paul said. “Behold, I shew
you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed” (1 
Corinthians 15:51). 

God has a wonderful change in store for those who put their faith and
trust in him.
