My Valentine

As I reflect on Valentine's Day, I can't help but think of my husband and the love he has poured out on me over the years.  Bruce is a dream come true to my life.  I would have never thought that I would be blessed by such a man.  He has dedicated his life to loving me unconditionally and shows me daily by his sacrifices of himself to give me more and more.  Much more than I could ever deserve.  I have to admit, Bruce has always been my biggest support.  He has been right by me side through great times and most importantly, he has been my rock through some of the longest, darkest days.  He never expects anything in return, just loves me for who I am, who I was and who I am becoming.  He is always pushing me to do better and without him, I know that I would not be who I am today.  I love him dearly!
Most importantly, this man I call my own, has always shown me the love of Christ.  He always looks at me and sees me through the eyes of Christ.  When I don't deserve it, all I get is love.  When I am hard on myself, he points me back to the truth.  Through the years, I have been able to get the whole concept of how God loves us more than we could imagine and more than we deserve, because of my husband. 

My prayer on this Valentine's Day, and really, not just today, but every day, is that you begin to see your husband through Christ's eyes.  He may not be perfect in all the ways you, want, but he is the perfect one for you.  See him for who he is, and not who you want him to be.  He loves you.  He chose you.  Just as God loves, your hubby loves.  Choose this day to show Him, and him, how much you love!

Happy Valentine's Day...

Now these three remain:
faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV
