 The title says it all folks! My Tim brought me some flowers and candy bars today! I love flowers and candy bars!! He's sweet to me. I'm gonna talk for both of us, I think he agrees with me. It's so much sweeter for us both to love the other when we're focused on loving our Jesus. In our time together we've discovered, the hard way, that we need Jesus to be our focus, to be our center, to be the one we pour all our love on. And in that we have discovered that God pours His love on us each individually in such abundance there is an overflow and with that we can love each other. It's great. It's just great. We are two completely different people. We would be on the opposite ends of a spectrum, except that the Spirit of God is unifying us and making us one. We have two completely different ways to reach one goal, but somehow instead of being different they are complementary. I can't imagine someone better for me. I couldn't have imagined someone more different than me to be my best friend. It would be really easy for me to be discouraged sometimes because we're so different, but then I realize that I'm not interested in marrying myself. And how different is Christ from His Bride? Totally different, but somehow God makes us one with Him. Differences become complements. And I believe that the enemy cannot gain a foothold in a bond so strong. Its the Romans 8 thing, "who can separate us from the love of God." No one. God has written mine and Tim's love story - who will separate us? NO ONE! Who can come against us when we're loving each other out of the outflow of the love that God has for us? NO ONE! We are not lacking. I am talking to myself, this is good encouragement for me, though I'm not feeling discouraged. God is good. |
