For those of you who have been reading our blogs you might remember the blog that I
(Abby) wrote after our time at training camp about God calling me to be His bride! Little
did I realize that for the first 3 months of this trip He would be not only calling me to be
the Bride of Christ but also to become Joe's bride….again.
I have been reading a book this month in Moldova, titled "Created to Be His Help Meet"
by Debbi Pearl. Through this book and the bible God has been showing me how my
actions, reactions and attitudes affect my relationship with Joe. With much
prayer,
submission,
and biting my tongue……
I have started to reap the benefits of pursuing an earthly relationship that honors God in
every thought, word and deed.
Gaining Joe's trust,
public displays of affection,
and hearing his thoughts and fears in life…
All treasures that I have received.
Creating a reflection of the heavenly relationship God desires with me and His church.
In both of my covenant relationships (God and Joe) I want to LIVE what I say. I don't
want to just speak the words "I love you", I want to live them out in everything I do.
In everything thing I say.
In every thought I think.
With all my heart I am thankful that God has brought to my attention that I wasn't doing
this and with His love and strength I will pursue loving with all I am for the rest of .. life.
