Just Because: Why I love my husband

August 22, 2008

God has blessed me with a wonderful man. I just wanted to take this opportunity to publicly encourage him. He is a man of noble character who loves God and loves me. Just a few reasons why I love my husband so much and am blessed to be his wife:

  • He loves God, and he loves me.
  • He knows the word and spends time in it daily.
  • He prays with me daily.
  • He has the courage to step out in faith to follow God’s call for his life, forsaking material security for obedience.
  • He is a good steward of our finances.
  • He is humble enough to apologize when he knows in his heart that he is wrong.
  • He is teachable - he asks for advice and feedback from church leadership on questionable matters.
  • He protected my purity when we dated - and reserved ‘I love you’ until we were engaged.
  • He saved himself for marriage. (as did I!)
  • He uses his gifts to encourage me and continue to show his affection - writing stories about a Bear and Bee, and their adventures, that personify our relationship.
  • He supports me in better preparing for my calling - and regularly encourages me to use my gifts.
  • He will tell me what he is thinking - I never have to guess.
  • He will speak the truth in love, when I need to hear it.
  • He shows me grace and patience, daily.
  • He tells me that he loves me, a couple dozen times a day.
  • He gives himself up for me daily in the ways that he protects me, cares for me, and makes sacrifices for me.

I love you George!!!!!

[ Wives, have you told your husbands lately how much you love and respect them? Now would be a great opportunity. :-) ]
