I just have to shout out praise to my hubby
Thinking of how my husband has grown over the years. None of us are perfect in any area of life but I am so proud of the man he has become. As father's day comes around in a week I'm thinking of the past decade of our life together, through all the holidays we've missed together because of him working I try to make other days special because its just a day on a calendar. We didn't know how much we would have come against us in our marriage, health, finances, family etc. Together we have made it through a lot of things that make marriages fall apart and I credit our strength to God because it is only through our faith that we can make it through it all.
I just have to shout out praise to my hubby, he works day and night at one of the busiest stations and no matter how much back pain hes in, or what he has going on he puts God first, meaning that at work he helps his patients and coworkers with love, humor, and empathy. He had record number of calls day and night in record heat, air conditioning that broke, and a lot of things going on at home and at work. He always keeps his eye on the prize though. At home he doesn't come home whining about not getting sleep for days and dealing with drama all night. He gives his girls hugs and kisses and gives them the attention they need and loves on them like the selfless dad he is. When he can hes there for me and takes me to my treatments, appointments, and tests. Hes told me how beautiful I am with tubes every which way and scars like a treasure map even sitting in the hospital for the upteenth time when I know if he never saw a hospital again he would be happy. Although we aren't able to date like we would love, or vacation like we need to he tries to make special little breakfasts when he can or a Starbucks here and there. Its the little things in my life that mean the most. When I hear his voice or see him I am reminded that God sees me because I see the man that I knew He was to become many years ago and God answered those prayers of faith.
Every Sunday that he is off and able to go he volunteers at church to help in some capacity.Even when we both worked full time, went to school full time and kids were little we volunteered in multiple areas because we are Jesus' hands and feet. Even through all of the health battles and surgeries and hospitalizations over the years we've always put God first. Our life gets satisfied when we help the community of people just like Jesus. Life is about more than just us in this life and over the years even when I've been in the hospital every month we have found ways to give back even during out darkest storms because when you bless others you get blessed. I'm not saying this to brag, but more to encourage you if you don't feel satisfied with life sometimes its because we need to reach out of our comfort zone and help others. I know when I had to stop hosting, volunteering in areas and am not able to go to church a part of me hurts because I love helping and serving and not being able to do everything I used to do makes me feel discouraged at the moment. I do know God sees our heart and he knows us serving through helping other marriages' grow in Marriage Builders or Jason in the parking lot, impression team, or security or something else God uses wherever you are to show God's love. So even if you cant do everything you want to, do what you can when you can and that will honor God and He will see your heart and bless your life. Everyone needs encouragement and we have to start with the people closest to us because those are the people that get our best but also our worst a lot of times. So Jason I love you and I am SO proud of the love you have for us, our family, our friends, church, job and God! Happy early father's day, we are so blessed to have you!
