Well in less than two weeks I am going to be blessed to celebrate my ten year anniversary with the love of my life. I am so excited. Quite frankly a few years ago I would be stoked for completely different reasons. I would be anticipating some big expensive bling and expecting to go to some expensive resort while being pampered by my husband. So not the case now. Now my excitement comes from the hope of at least having one night alone with my husband and one other thing. We have completed ten years of successful commitment to each other. How truly blessed by God are we? I know people either don't believe me or think I am over exaggerating when I say it gets better each day but it gets better every day. After church I was reminded about something our pastor said and I looked to Philly and said, "Thank you for being faithful to me." I think he thought I was being sarcastic but I was dead serious. How many times do we insult or degrade our spouse when we think they are doing something wrong or looking at somebody that walks by? I find it funny that in most relationships we choose to list the faults instead of the accomplishments. I just don't want to be one of those couples. I could make a list of all the things that I think make us a good couple; humor, honesty, communication, and crazy in-laws. Ha! However the closer I become to the Trinity the more I feel it is working a 110% on our commitment to each other. No earthly thing comes between us and that includes our kids. Not only are we committed by our faithfulness to each other but also by our faithfulness to God. Our relationship with our Father becomes the learning book to every other relationship we have. Not only that but I look at how the Trinity works. While we know they are One; we also know they are three. God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit must maintain a perfect symmetry with each other. Not One outshines the other. All three are designed to be of perfect equation with the other. It is actually quite beautiful if you think about it and also quite inspiring. What would happen if Jesus went to The Holy Spirit and said, "You know I just don't understand what God was thinking today?" Yeah that would never happen. Rather their perfect union allows them to know each other's actions before it is done and then they all do it together. Never will Phillip and I be that united but there is hope. I hope each and every new day is just like today. A perfect balance of true commitment and self happiness while one doesn't outshine the other. I also pray that every tomorrow continues to bring us closer to each other and individually to our Father. I hope we both stay committed to this earthly union being a rare success while individually working to commit to God and working on our Heavenly home. God bless to all of my faithful friends and followers.
Acts 2:32-34
God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact.
Exalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit
and has poured out what you now see and hear.
For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,
" 'The Lord said to my Lord:"Sit at my right hand
