The Greatest of These

The Beatles say, "All you need is love..love...love is all you need."

Tina Turner said, "What's love got to do with it?"

But, my favorite saying that has proven itself in my own life is that LOVE

...bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

~I Corinthians 13:7

What an amazing piece of truth to hold on to especially when two months before my wedding day, I was laying on a cold hard surgical room table with the doctor saying I was in heart failure.

What???

I was only 29, working night shift as a nurse, planning my beautiful wedding day to my true love.  

My plans were moving along like clockwork. 

Needless to say, my true love was right there by my side without missing a beat, saying okay what do we need to do to get you better?

He truly lives out that verse everyday.

He hopes that I get better.

He bears the fact that we can't have a baby.

He endures all the hospital stays, doctors, medicines, tests, fatigue, visits to specialists.

He believes in me to follow my dreams.

He has endured all this right along with me.

...But now faith, hope, love, abide these three, but the greatest of these is love.

Thank you God for your gift of love through my honeybunny!

Now that all that mushy stuff is out of the way, and I'm wiping my tears away while writing this, 

let's stroll down memory lane...

 

Our first date, our official day we became a couple May 25, 2005, and the first time we said "I LOVE YOU!"

YES, we said IT ALL IN CAPITALS, EXCLAMATION POINT!
