Marriage
The Love of a Friend
When I think about the very best of friends, I think about my closest friend. He is my husband. Mark is the dearest friend to me. He would do anything for me, evening if it means losing his life for me.
Mark hears my faintest cry; no matter how I try to hide something that is hurting, me he can always tell that my heart is aching on the inside. He is there for me in the good times and the not so good times.
In the twenty-three year friendship-marriage, we have grown closer together. We have gone through countless of blessings along with crises that have broken our hearts. For example, we rejoiced over the birth of our six children. We also bared the pain of losing one of our children our daughter, at the young age of eleven years old.
In the two-decade marriage, Mark can finish thoughts that I am thinking before I can finish saying something. He is full of surprises. I could be down about something and out of nowhere, he would go get roses and bring them home to me to brighten my day.
We often have fun thinking on how many ways we can tell each other how much we love each other. We plan a day or two where we speak about doing things the night before starting in the morning for the next day or two leaving love notes around for each other. After a day full of fun and suspense, our day ends with a date for dinner that evening.
Our marriage is built on nothing less then Jesus Christ. We have grown in the love of Christ, whom is the head of our house. Our faith stands on steadfast promises of Christ our Savior. Without Christ, our marriage is nothing. It is because of Christ that our marriage is strong.
