but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ,
from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.
Yesterday, my husband said to me, “You’re changing, to meet our marriage”
I couldn’t think of a more touching, more genuine compliment.
Looking at myself six years ago, I was a mess. Unhappy, searching for something, and totally mired in materialism. I was determined to be my own boss, and heaven help anyone who stood in my way.
Enter Brett.
With his love of all things outdoors, easy demeanor, and boundless patience, he began to show me, a little at a time, a whole new world, and a whole new focus.
Following his lead, and with the gentle guidance of God, finally, at almost forty, I’m growing up – building myself up in love.
That was a great post! It’s awesome to be able to look back and see how much you’ve grown 🙂
God does great things when you let Him!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I am a HARD headed woman, and have a lot of trouble stepping back, and letting God lead. I’m a work in progress, for certain.
Thanks for hosting again. I really enjoy this every week!
I’m glad for you that your marriage has made you a better person.
I appreciate you coming by and participating! God certainly knew what he was doing with Brett, as my marriage is an instrument for change in many areas of my life!
