The Blessings of Love
That's
me with my Bill
This
was our very first real date.
Love
at first sight!!
Love
does not consist of gazing at each other,
but
in looking outward in the same direction.
Antione
De Saint-Exupery
Bill
had just proposed Marriage to me
and
I had just accepted his proposal.
A
man leaves his father and mother,
and
clings to his wife,
and
the two flesh become one flesh.
Genesis
2:18, 24
Our
Wedding Day 3rd March 1979
It
rained most of the day but they were
Showers
of Blessing
To My dear and Loving Husband
If
ever two were one, then surely we.
If
ever a man were loved by wife, then thee:
If
ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare
with me, ye women, if you can.
I
prize thy love more than whole mines of gold
Or
all the riches that the East doth hold.
My
love is such that rivers cannot quench,
Nor
ought but love from thee, give recompense.
Thy
love is such I can no way repay,
The
Heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.
Then
while we live, in love let's so persevere
That
when we live no more, we may live ever.
Anne
Bradstreet
(1660
A.D.)
Here
we are as we are today, a little older a little wiser
and
even more in love than the day we married.
Isn't
God good!!
I
am sure that as you have been reading the above
poems,
you will have gathered that I love this dear
man
with all of my heart. He was chosen for me
by
God Himself, through prayer and the most
wonderful
thing about it is, that he feels the same
way
about me.
I
give all of my Praise and thanks to my Heavenly
Father
for hearing and answering my prayers.
God
gives His best, to those who leave the choice
to
Him.
I
pray that this Page of Love has in some way blessed you.
If
it has I would love to hear from you.
