Marriage
I remember watching one of my sons in summers long ago, sitting outside in the grass in the warm summer sunshine, playing with whatever he found.
He could pick up a flower and be totally absorbed, turning it over, then over again, finding out everything that he could from how it looked and smelled, the texture and feel in his hands.
He could sit there so long with that one simple thing, that we would haven thrown away, and be lost in its beauty, a look of wonder on his face, seeing more than he had words to say.
It reminds me of our love, that wonderful thing, the gift that God gave me and you, and though it’s a simple thing, that doesn't always have words, I get lost in its wonder too.
It absorbs me all day, there's something new every day, as love fills my heart each day anew, and I will never be able to explain it in words, I can only feel
its joy by giving it away.
And there is only one person to whom I want to give this treasure that God has given me, and I put it into your hands each new day, to share its beauty that together we can see.
I thank God for the lesson this memory has given, to put you first, after God, to be absorbed in loving you, and know that as long as I'm willing to do that, our love will stay deep and true.
For its true that when I give, I receive even more, for my day is filled with love, and I know how blessed I am to have you as my love my true gift from God above.

"For its true that when I give, I receive even more"
I like that quote, which is very true. It's only when we give of ourselves, do we receive blessings beyond measure, such as joy and peace. Thank you for your humble offering by sharing with us this beautiful piece. Blessings,
Gloria
