Marriage
I was remembering this morning of a cold and wintry day, standing outside a store window in Chicago, looking inside at the display.
It was Christmastime, and each store window held a magical scene taking place, the figures so real, depicting such joy, it was reflected in every onlookers face.
I remember wishing I could be a part of those scenes, inside in the warmth and light, instead of standing outside in the cold, in the wind and darkness of night.
I think of my life before I met you, standing outside in the cold looking in, and wishing that I could be part of that life just beyond reach, full of love and laughter within.
But I seemed to be stuck, I could not move past the dark barriers that were always in my way, and the dream that I had became buried beneath the sorrow and cares of each day.
Then I met Jesus, and what a profound difference that made, for He took my hand and led me in that door, and showed me how I could believe again, that with him all these riches were in store.
He forgave all my sins, He just wiped them away, and made my heart over, so shiny and new, and then He gave me back all my dreams, for into my life He brought you.
Now we are both on the inside of the glass, living a life full of love and joy in Him, and each day dawns with new promise and hope, happiness fills our hearts to the brim.
And I thank God every morning for the gift He has given, for opening the door and bringing me inside, to live out my dreams, for they all came true now that I am at your side.
Now I am complete, my heart full of joy, I can hardly believe that it's true - that I could have this joy, this love I get to share, this life of happiness is mine because I have you!
