Great video! I'm so glad things seem to be working out and getting better.
Oh! You are cute! Hubbies take a while to learn sometimes!
Oh! Yeah! Back dimples!!! Ummm... You would be famous... Or anonymous,,,
I like the comfy shoes.
I'd rather have a knock down, drag out fight now and then (figuratively speaking) and know where I stand with someone and clear the air every now and then than have any relationship that's all plastic smiles and one person giving in to the other person. Whenever people say "oh we never fight/argue" I think unhealthy relationship where one person is just being flattened by the other person.
Like I said to someone recently, the main thing is to find someone decent who cares about you - everything else is negotiable.
Also I've never heard the word "covenant" used in the context of marriage before, that word makes me think of old men with beards and stone tablets.
That's a GREAT story...and totally encouraging! My take away, is that you stand uprightly speaking out your desires for relationship with your husband...and while you remind him who he is (that awesome man you married) he reminds you who you are (that beautiful woman he married)...that's love and invitation to deeper intimacy (with self, each other and God! Cool!
Gal 5:14 "For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." That's totally surprising to me that Paul says the whole law is fulfilled in only this love your neighbor...he doesn't even include love God. That's amazing...and what you're living out in relationship with your husband...not to oversell your story
@god_stories - Sometimes, we remind each other of who we 'aren't' yet. And that is ok too... Fights are very eye opening if you can put the anger aside and really look at them. If you are both willing to examine yourselves, your faults... what you brought to it, good and bad. Somethings aren't bad at all, they just feel bad but need perspective and thought to understand.
I think while what we are going through feels really bad, and even hopeless in the depths of it... its going to be good. There is good here, there is promise here... there is hope. In all discomfort, we are seeing who we are... what we, as a couple, what to be =]
