This has always been a mystery to me! The Lord as my husband? I have come to know Him more and more here in the desert as my husband. My sweet earthly husband is so wonderful to me! Here, he’s gone two weeks out of every month in the field…and when he comes home, that […]

6 beautiful years….
Psalm 18:2: “The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Yesterday, Brian and I celebrated our 6th year anniversary 🙂 Tonight, we had a night to celebrate together (without the munchkins)…and […]
Unified Hearts
Lately, I have been asking the Lord to show me what unified hearts look like in a marriage. There are so many times when my loving husband and I see things differently…we have such different personalities…such different perspectives…even different goals or ideas about the future…but ONE great love: Jesus Christ. We both LONG for unity […]
A Joyful Heart
A Joyful Heart I see a JOYFUL heart, I see a conscientous little boy, I see a BIG heart for God, even at 3. I see a DESIRE to obey, I see a heart burdened for others, I see a boy who delights in fellowship with others, a boy who sings and dances for the Lord. I […]
Loving Extravagantly
God is calling me to love extravagantly and tenaciously…no matter what. I’ve been thinking a lot about how to do this…it involves a lot of things that are so hard for my sinful heart to do…pretty much everything in 1 Corinthians 13. It is impossible to give this kind of love without Jesus, because this […]
Unity
God is showing me so much through my sweet husband right now. We are experiencing right now part of a promise of the Lord, that when two unite, they become one flesh–we are learning from each other and becoming more and more one as time goes on. My husband’s Christ-like characteristics are such a testimony to […]
My sweet husband :-)
I am seeing God’s love for me primarily through my sweet husband right now. As I am collecting his letters to me over a period of about 3 1/2 years of separation (during our engagement and marriage), I am reminded over and over what an incredible gift he has been to me from the Lord. And […]
Communication in a Sacred Marriage
What an important part of a Godly marriage! It takes great listening skills, and the priority to be: one another above all else. God has given us focus in this area. He is transforming our methods of communication. We have been in prayer and seeking and HE is answering and teaching!!! I cannot believe how […]
Fear in Respect/Love
Fear is a terrible thing….especially when it is not a reverant fear for the Lord. That kind of fear leads us to be pleasing to the Lord and to a righteous life. Every other fear is a stealer of joy…a stealer of everything. To every hesitation in obeying the Lord, there is a FEAR associated. The Lord will […]
Unconditional love/Unconditional Respect
Something really neat that the Lord is teaching me lately in my marriage is that my spouse is God’s most tangible way of loving me. The Lord loves me in MANY ways, and yes, my sweet husband is not perfect, but the Lord DESIRES my husband and I to LOVE each other as He would love us […]
