Wedded Bliss!

Today my hubby and I joined friends in the union of one of my big brothers and his now beautiful wife. It's amazing to have been afforded the ability t receive the love of God an then be fortunate to share that love with someone God fashioned for us as a mate.


That someone you converse with, let your hair down with, laugh and cry with.  Aside from being completely naked with whether dimples or wrinkles...they are someone that does not care as long it's you that they are sharing it with.


Seeing them today just reminded me how Adam must have felt when God created Eve to be his life long mate.  I gaze at my husband and am reminded as well how much God loves me to have the opportunity to share the rest of my life with my best friend and lover.


He taught me intimacy between a man and wife I could have never imagined.  He loves me, is turned on by not only my body but my mind and spirit.


I used to think marriage was not the perfect match for me but God allowed me to experience different.


God allowed me to not only hear about the perfect union between a man and wife but allowed me to be the recipient of a marital union.


I was about to forfeit the opportunity to learn how to love again by settling with independence and depending only on the lower extremity of a male but God has allowed me to experience my husband's heart.


God has allowed me to become one or become one flesh with a man I had not sought after but one He purposed for me.  He truly gives s all that we need.  Even if God decided not to send me a mate, I would have been thankful but in His infinite wisdom, He saw fit to weave the sanctity of marriage into my life.


I am thankful that God challenged my thinking on marriage because everything that God has made is good and yes, if in my singlehood God would have gotten glory then so be it, but I am grateful that in His infinite plan that I have had the opportunity not by word of mouth.


I was able to taste for myself much like my encounter with Jesus that marriage is good and I am grateful that along with the other testimonies in my arsenal, there is yet another....the witness of wedded bliss!
