A Christlike Love
There is no better place to practice love than in our homes. There are so many ways to show our sweethearts that we love them and that we appreciate them.
I am so grateful for my dear husband who recently demonstrated his love for me in exceptional ways. For most of March and April, I was bedridden with a ruptured disk. I must confess, it was a new experience for me to not be able to do things for myself, but even walking a few steps was excruciating. During the healing process, he fixed me three delicious meals a day and brought them to me, did the dishes, cleaned the house, did the shopping and the laundry, took me to the doctor and physical therapy, made sure I took my medication, and even washed my hair for me. He did all this graciously and without complaining, even though his own back was hurting most of the time. (I must confess he’s a better cook than I am and when I was finally able to start preparing a few simple meals for us, he cautioned me not to mess up HIS kitchen!)
At the end of May we celebrated out 44th wedding anniversary. We went out for lunch and went to the new 3 -D movie “UP”–a simple celebration, to be sure, but it was special because we were together. Being married to one’s best friend is a blessing, but it doesn’t just happen. It takes a lot of serving, and caring, and sharing.
Thank you, Peter!
