Just a Daisy in the Meadow

Okay . . . we look kinda old and tired, but . . . this is us.

And loving it . . .  and Lord willing many more before the Lord calls one or both of us home . . . There’s something so beautiful of an aged, white-haired couple still walking hand-n-hand after many, many years . . . Keeping their promise . . . and loving it . . .

“This is the LORD’S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.”  Psa 118:23

You know there really is something to this thing of becoming one when you say those marriage vows . . .I just don’t like going places without my husband, especially to church. Wednesday evening Japheth and some of the little ones were feeling under the weather so we were going to stay home from cell group, but he said I could go if I liked . . . As much as I want to take a break from my responsibilities at times, I declined. If I go alone, it just doesn’t seem right . . . like some thing’s missing . . . like I’m only half there.

This morning Loraine and I headed off bright and early for the hour and a quarter drive to get my lab work done and get back before Japheth needs to head into work( it seems I’m always running out of pills – Synthroid – And they only give me a refill or two at a time) Thankfully I can be there as early as seven. AND THANKFULLY with this doctor, I don’t have to have an official visit, I can just go get my blood drawn! I guess my body keeps changing cause several times a year my dosage needs adjusting Anyway, I didn’t want to go alone . . .maybe I am finally getting used to chatter . . . I had the chance of two and a half hours of silence . . . and instead I chose to answer all the “why” questions . . . Though the Lord gave me much silence anyway, (she was tired and sleepy).

But I love it when we can go together . . . to the doctor, getting groceries, whatever . . . I just love being with him!!!

. . . And we are the bride of Christ . . . just being with Him is all that matters . . .

. . .we got married for life!

“Wherefore they are no more twain,
but one flesh.
What God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder.”
- Matthew 19:6

“He brought me to the banqueting house,
and his banner over me was love.”
- Song of Solomon 2:1b

I love being Japheth’s wife!

Thank-you, Honey, for choosing me!

Being married makes me anticipate even more The Marriage in heaven . . . and to think that we are chosen by God! And, oh, His great love for us . . .

” . . . But chosen of God,
and precious.”
- I Peter 2:4b
