My Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day to the love of my life.  I have so enjoyed being "us" for almost 18 years.  When we are together, my life is complete.  I have always loved laughing with you, talking with you, (me talking :) ) discussing Biblical things, listening to you preach, listening to you sing :),  hugging you, having your children, becoming a family of 7!

I received from Girlfriends in God by Sharon Jaynes something that is challenging me.  Do I love my husband well? Do I adore the man that God has given to me?  Romans 12 gives us some points that we can ask ourselves about our husbands.  How do we love him?
*Love must be sincere
*Cling to what is good
*Be devoted to one another
*Honor one another above yourself
*Never be lacking in zeal
*Be joyful in hope
*Be patient in affliction
*Be faithful in prayer
*Do not be proud
*Do not be conceited
*Do not pay anyone evil for evil

I desire to love my husband freely.  God has been so good and faithful to us!! I admire my husband for who he has become and is becoming.  He is listening to God and obeying and I desire that above all else.  I admire him for the man of God he is!!

I love you sweetheart!!
