sweetness and light, i love you so much. it's been so few hours since we last talked, but sometimes an hour or so feels like days at a time. the time passed since we'd last prayed together on the phone across nearly 3,000 miles of mineral and vegitation [sic] has gone slower than i could ever imagine. missing you feels like i'm missing part of me. my completion is in Christ and the joy of the Lord is my strength, but since i met you, i haven't been and most likely will never be the person i was. once two strands of thread are woven into this fabric of love, it's hard to see the single threads i once knew. i take my place in the whole that is Christ and His body, and i can only pray that my place in His cloth of majesty is a thread wrapped so tightly around yours. i cherish your company. i love you.
the more i pray with you, the more i hear you open up your heart to the Lord, the further and deeper in love i find myself with you upon looking back. every prayer you speak, whether in your heart or from your lips is of course not for me, but it blesses my heart just the same as it speaks to our Lord and Savior. when i hear you pray, it's like i see your deepest level of love, i hear your innermost being crying out to be all that our Lord, our God, our Best Friend and Daddy has made us through the death and resurrection of his Son. it's really more than words can say, but i hope these few inadequate words will somehow convey my interpretation of your heart's pure and radiant beauty. christin joy, i love you. thank You so much, Lord Jesus, for making this beautiful girl just that. and praise You, my God, for the opportunity to be hers in love.
this just came straight from my heart. i had planned just to write you an e-mail and talk about things, but all that's really been on my mind is your prayer, your voice, you in general. that and, of course, praise to God the Father and Jesus Christ for bringing you into my life and blessing me with your friendship and love. i love you, christin. i really do. and i can't see any trouble befalling either of us that will change that. you have my loyalty, you have my trust, you have my prayers, you have my deepest friendship and adoration, you have my all that can be given which is given from the Lord who keeps me. you have my heart. i pray that your day tomorrow will be the most beautiful day you have ever seen. i love you. goodbye.
Oh my darling. I love you. I'm not going to write everything I'm thinking since I read your sweet letter. Mostly because I don't trust writing it all out on the iPhone and such. But you sent goosebumps up my spine and brought tears to my eyes. I am blessed at your leading and headship of our marriage and love to see our mighty Lord working through you and growing you. You're my favorite person on Gods earth. Thank you. Thank you for being a blessing and for trusting me and loving me and always pressing toward the Lord with great passion. I can hardly wait to hold you in my arms and feel your warmth and pray together and share oneness together. I loving you. There's more but I've already said more than I had anticipated.

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that our love is even more than it was and growing everyday. It's amazing that from the beginning, our relationship was built on the firm foundation of Christ. I am blessed beyond measure to watch our lives form and to see how things play out. I pray that I'm still as much of a joy to you today as I was 7 years ago. I love you more and more each day as God grants me His tender mercies day by day and the grace to see another day. Loving you.
