10 things I love about you
by I love the way you trust me enough to spoil me. You have the softest heart, I worry sometimes that I'll trample you in a fit of selfishness. I love your patience. Even when I can see you're frustrated, you persevere because you treasure me... like I'm some princess or precious jewel. You make me believe I'm worth fighting for. I love your intensity. You make yourself so vulnerable when you announce what you believe. I want that strength, not to slip into the background, stay in the safe harbour- but rather go out, guns blazing. I love your apparent contradictions, your complexity. I love that there's so much I don't understand about you. I love that we're so different. I love the way you transform into a Godly priest when you preach. It's such a testimony to me of the Holy Spirit's power. It's like God moulds you as you speak, guiding you and inspiring you. I learn so much from you about our Creator. I love the way you love your mom, protecting her and encouraging her. My mom always told me to watch out for that cos it's a test of how a man will treat his wife. It's true. I love how you refuse to accept defeat. Someone will tell you can't do something and you'll do it anyway. You risk embarassment and pretty much always prove them wrong. And when you fail, you laugh and pick yourself up, ready for the next challenge. I love to see you cry. Not when I've hurt you or you feel disillusioned but when you're so appreciative or overcome by God's grace in your life that it spills from your eyes. You breathe in life and sigh in deep understanding of what you've been blessed with. Not many people can do that. I love your road rage. I know you'd never hurt anyone but I love your righteous indignation at stop street violators or those who skip the line at 4-ways. You turn into a traffic officer, determined to let the offender know they should drive more safely. I can so see you as a gunslinging sheriff. You were born into the wrong era! You should have been a cowboy. I love your humility in learning new things. I love to see your eyes light up when you hear a new idea that really makes sense to you. I love your passionate conversation in your efforts to learn more. Abigail Bevan Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
