"We want other people to know that a broken family can be healed. And we also know that it's better for families to do everything they can to try to make that marriage and that family work together. When you have Jesus living in you, you have hope forever. When you have the Holy Spirit living in you, you have help." Miss Kay, Duck Dynasty Matriarch

(Monroe, NC)—While speaking recently at a "Night of Ducks and Huck" event with Mike Huckabee, Duck Dynasty matriarch "Miss Kay" spoke bluntly about the redemption of her marriage to “Duck Commander" Phil.

With her typical homespun wisdom, Miss Kay first listed three things she hoped people would learn from her testimony: 1) to find joy in everything, 2) build a strong foundation with your family—"because you need them and they need you and that's very important in America today," and 3) and never give up.

Referring to the early years of their marriage, before either she or Phil were saved, Miss Kay said, "I had 10 bad years with Phil, and he was horrible. I did not give up on my marriage; I did not give up because God told me to fight for that marriage, and I did, and I made it through."

At one pre-salvation point, she said her life was so miserable that she locked herself in the bathroom and contemplated suicide, an experience she says helps her when ministering to those in similar positions.

"I just didn't want to live anymore," she said. "That's when I went to my knees for God."

At that low point in her life, she said her three sons, Alan, Jase and Willie, knocked on the door and begged her to come out, with Alan crying, "God will take care of us. Please don't cry anymore."

It was a turning point for Miss Kay who, the very next day, committed her life to Christ and let the Holy Spirit begin to help her in her marriage. "When you have Jesus living in you, you have hope forever."

It took a lot of prayer, patience and fortitude on her part, and her sons, but Phil, at that time a verbally abusive alcoholic, eventually turned his live over to Christ.

And the rest is "only God could do this" history.
