Tim

I realized a couple of nights ago that I pray for Tim more than I pray for anyone else on my prayer list. What does this mean?
Tim is what I would consider agnostic; when I go to church on Sunday I wait for people to ask where my future husband is and plan what I will say. "I am a very patient woman." What do I mean by this?
Tim may never believe in my God & thats okay with me. But if one day he asked to go with me to church, I would be tickled. For now, this remains a very quiet subject in our life. And that's okay too.

I pray that Tim be motivated to do well. With his terrible luck and some of the hands he has been dealt I know that it would be so much easier to stay in bed & dwell on the bad things. I like to think that since I have come in to his life I have made things a little easier. I don't want him to ever worry about anything. I want to take his pain and worry and see him smile.

I pray that Tim make smart decisions. He doesn't have great judgment and he can be very impulsive. I like to think that since I have been in his life he is using me for advice to make decisions that are right for him.

I pray that God be with him in all his times of need. From a bad day at work to God-forbid a car accident or the like. I dont know who else prays for Tim; maybe no one. I like to think that since Ive been in his life he is getting all the prayer he can stand.

Through thick and thin I promise to be the best wife I can be to him. Thats what women are supposed to do, and that's what I will do.

Amen.

  1. As I read your blogs, my eyes begin to fill, not because I'm sad for you but because of how proud I am of you and how proud I am to be your mom. You are a very mature, thoughtful, honest young women that will let nothing stand in your way of your own happiness and that is the way I wanted to raise you and hoped you would turn out to be. I feel accomplished in my venture of motherhood thanks to you. I love you !
