Willem Jacobus Petrus van Tond

I delight in inviting you to journey through the reminiscences of a marital relationship - from the moment you first saw her. I am Willem J. P van Tonder, the author of this book, My First Love God. It begins with the origins of your physical relationship with the woman of your life and unfolds into an easy-to-read book about the trails we face along the way. It addresses the challenges and perceptions that waken the little jackals and redirect us toward what should be a wailing-free bond.
Most importantly, it provides a spiritual perspective on what God wants in the relationship between you and her. Jesus is the steadfast Rock to build upon-not leaning on our own understanding, but rather applying the wisdom of God, through His love for us and for each other. It reflects on how the love you felt for her in the very beginning grows and matures into love that mirrors the Father Himself-the playwright of all that is right and pure.
Our God, our King-Jesus-the Price of Peace and the perfect example of charity-dwells in both me and you. This book goes beyond personal expectations and encourages readers to rediscover God`s purpose for marriage. My personal motivation for writing this book is to inspire those who are struggling with conflict surrounding marriage in the absence of biblical grounding. May your journey through these pages be filled with Spirit-led teaching, as you realize that the mercy of our Saviour is a daily anointing for all who wholeheartedly walk toward the tree of life.
