Moshate,\u201d she wrote, expressing appreciation for divine guidance and ancestral protection throughout their marriage.<\/p>\n<p>Their celebration was one of love, resilience and faith, themes echoed by another well-known couple, Kagiso Modupe and his wife Liza, who also marked a major relationship milestone this week.<\/p>\n<p>The pair celebrated seven years of marriage with a joint Instagram post that offered an honest reflection on the realities of married life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMarriage has taught us that love is not found only in the beautiful moments but also in the stretching seasons that test patience, deepen faith and refine character,\u201d they shared.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has not always been an easy road, but through every high and every low, the grace of God has carried us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The couple went on to reflect on the role of faith in sustaining their relationship through uncertainty and challenge.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere were moments we had to lean on prayer more than understanding, choose commitment over convenience, and trust God even when the way forward wasn\u2019t clear. And still, here we are. Standing. Growing. Stronger. Wiser. More grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As they celebrated another year together, Kagiso and Liza described their marriage as a testament to perseverance and shared belief.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday we celebrate not just the years but the faithfulness of God, the lessons learnt, the love that has matured, and the covenant that continues to hold us together. We are living proof that when God is at the centre, love endures.
