Enthrallled

Simpler times pass through my mind,

We were young newly weds…each enthralled in one another.

We had no clue how to do marriage, but we loved each other and our God.

I'm suppose to love her and give my self up as Christ commands. I often fail, yet occasionally get it right. My wife is more giving than I. I’m selfish, but I try to love, or let Christ's love live through me. I’m supposed to be the spiritual leader of the home. But she loves with out effort. I will give an example from today’s mother’s day.

I bought my wife and mom flowers for the day. We were all eating at my sister in-laws. Her sister had no gift for her mother in law; so my wife gave her flowers to her sister. She then gave them to her mother in law and everybody was happy.

I was proud of my wife, giving up her gift, just to make another happy. I’m blessed with a giving wife. We are coming up on 28 years of marriage in a couple weeks. It’s not been easy, but well worth it, we are still both growing in grace and knowledge. Thanks for a good one God!
