I came across these scriptures this morning. And I thought of my husband.
He trusts the Lord.
He thinks carefully and seeks the Lord's wisdom about each decision.
He listens to and respects the opinions of others (much better than I do - I'm learning).
And he fulfills his purpose. Well. He works hard, in everything.
He's not loud and crazy. We don't go out every night and aren't doing all kinds of random things.
But he loves me with his whole heart.
And he trusts the Lord.
And he is respected. What a blessing to be married to a man who is respected by others.
I am so blessed that John is the other side of me.
What a beautiful post. Thank you hun. I love you!
