I had the most peaceful thought at church last night and it took every ounce of my body not to sit down and cry once this thought over took me. We were standing, singing a song and I just glanced over at my husband and I was totally overcome with the knowledge that this experience, singing praises in the presence of the Ruler of Heaven and Earth with my husband, that is something that I will get to do for all eternity. What an amzing blessing and gift God has granted me! I will never understand how I am capable of having so much love for another person and how that loves grows deeper and deeper each moment I am with him. I am so grateful that God does not see fit to give me what I deserve and instead gives me what I need. What a gracious God I serve!
As I looked around the auditorium last night, my prayer changed from a prayer of praise and thanksgiving to a prayer of petition that those people within my eyesight be able to have the same confidence in their marriage, their spouse and our God that God has granted me. And that is my prayer for you as well.
May God open your eyes to the blessing He has generously poured out on you.

What an enormous blessing. I am pleased that you don't take it for granted as so many do.
And also, I like the look around here. Very peppy! Now I am going to have to fancy mine up. Shoot.
Normally, I do take it for granted, but God pushed through my stupidty and walls to give me that. And I will be truly grateful.
I a glad you like the new look. I think I do...
