With Valentines Day fast approaching...I was thinking about something I could post about today and then I read Michell's post from yesterday I believe and it got me to thinking...(thanks Michelle).
We all want the flowers and candy or better yet jewelry for Valentines Day right? But what I want for Valentines Day has nothing to do with any of them...well maybe the jewelry thing..hehe.. anyways as I was reading this other persons blog I couldn't help but remember all the Valentines Day's my hubby and myself have shared. We have been together almost 25 years...that of which 22 1/2 years are married years...so I have gotten my share of flowers, candy and even jewelry..but you know the more I think about it the more I am just grateful I have a wonderful man who loves me and respects me. When you say you have found your soul mate...I truly have. He loves the Lord and we share in our faith and pray for each other everyday. He is a great father and provider for all of us. He has to be because I love to spend money. I am always wanting to buy something so we have to have one level headed person in our relationship...haha!
I was listening to a young man last night at church preaching and in a few short months he will be getting married and he was talking about how many days, weeks and even how many hours it was until his wedding and that really blessed my heart to hear him talk about his soon to be wife and how he couldn't wait to start there lives together. If you are luck enough to find this kind of love you need to hold on tight and never let go. Of course it's not going to always be candy, flowers, and jewelry, but as long as you have love, respect and most important God...in your marriage, you have EVERYTHING!!!
That's all my mushy stuff for today...Hope each one has a blessed week!

love it!
Awww, what a sweet post! You’re right, it isn’t about the flowers, candy, and well… maybe jewelry, heehee. I have certainly been blessed that God has provided me with a Christian man who loves the Lord and has a desire to serve Him. I’m grateful that we can pray together as well. I also love to spend money, so he is definitely the level headed one too.. .. Heehee. Sounds like a great love the two of you share and that’s something special to praise the Lord for.
Hope you have a blessed week as well.
Hugs!
What a sweet post Shelia! You are truly blessed! These day's marriages are lucky to survive 22 months, much less 22 years! I hope God blesses your marriage 22+ more years!
