The holidays have wizzed by and the new year has started off rather quickly, too! We've been busy enjoying our time together and its been way too long since I've blogged.
I'd like to start off the new year with a very important thought of mine....
My husband is an awesome man.
I don't have any specific reason for saying so other than its just the plain 'ol truth. He hasn't done anything particulary special or out of the ordinary lately, but I could say these things on any given day. He is wonderful not only for the man that he is and wants to be, but he is wonderful because of who he makes ME. God chose such a perfect man to take my hand and walk with me through life. -Love you!
A few days ago (before I planned to write this blog entry and brag a little bit about my husband) I made a post on my facebook page quoting a Christian song. It said "This is your life, are you who you want to be?.... This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be?"
I am exactly who I want to be and where I want to be. I couldn't have dreamed a better dream. Things aren't "perfect" and Lord knows I'm not perfect!, but they are "perfectly imperfect" and exactly the way they should be. I know this could all change tomorrow- but I believe that because we have each other TODAY, love each other TODAY, and are happy with TODAY that tomorrow will work itself out, come what may.
Am so thankful that the Lord brought your husband into your life!

Psalms 40:1-4 I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD. Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

ReplyDeleteRomans 8:15-18 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

ReplyDeleteIsaiah 53:6-8 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
