HE HAS PLANS!

This is another hard one for me to write, because it's so personal, but perhaps in writing it,I will help someone else, along the way, and that's what it's all about, isn't it?
After 34 years of marriage,I'm so very grateful that God didn't listen to my plea some 25 years ago, when I begged Him to change my husband. I wasn't a very happy camper, in my marriage then, and thought David needed alot of changing and I pretty much told God so!
Well, He did some changing alright, but it wasn't on David (at first).....it was on me! Yep! He got a hold of me in a big way, and shook the dust out of my brain, and refocused my eyes onto Christ. Funny thing happened too....... As soon as I took my eyes off of myself, and I started to change, then David started changing too!I began to work on my attitude in our marriage and he did an about face in his attitude.God honored my obedience and gave me the desires of my heart.
By that point, though, I truly knew, that my deep down real love, was my Lord, and always had been.He had always been with me, but as usual,I tend to "take off", on my own, but in His faithfulness,He always reminds me,that He's waiting!
He does it in neat ways too.
I don't know of many husbands who would stay by their wives, like David did, after the loss of a child........He has done so, faithfully.
I don't know many husbands who would stay by their wives' bedside for 2 months while they were in a coma, but he did!.....Every single day, for two months!
I don't know of one, but God did way back then, ............ and I got him!
God knew what would happen, and what we both would need, way back then. He choreopgraphed everything, to make me see my need to stay with this fella.
He gave me Ephesians 5:22, and I grew from that!
We are as different as night and day, but God has plans and I can't wait to see them unfold,folks!
