Marriage
I was thinking this morning of yesterday, when I listened to the ones learning piano playing their lessons for me.... and how it was so evident to me looking from the outside, the amount that had been learned, and the hands that had so recently just made noise, were now making music that was so sweet to hear.
The fingers that had been so awkward before, learning to play more than one
note at a time, now stretched out with ease, remembering the shape of each chord before it was played.
And in the weeks before, what had seemed impossible to do, to play both hands together as one; with practice and patience had come together, they made music, and even more, they had fun!
I think of our love as a process like that, we learn each other a bit at a time.... and it takes time and practice to join the two into one, to play the music that God gives us to play.
We go over each bit, practicing day after day, and as it gets easier with time, we learn what gives joy and happiness to each other, it becomes 'us' and 'we' not 'me' and 'mine'
One day the practice comes around full circle, and the melody we've learned rings out so clear, all the practice and devotion we've spent learning each other, becomes the music we love to hear.
And the best thing of all is that the song's never done.... each day is a variation brand new, but the notes are familiar, the melody is love, and such joy because I get to play this duet with you.
