IN SPITE OF IT ALL, HE...



My husband isn't perfect. Our marriage is up and down like a roller coaster. Yet, at the end of the day I know this man loves me like no other. Unfortunately I know at THE CURRENT TIME I don't deserve this kind of unconditional love. Yes, I said it. No, I'm not insecure or have low self-esteem. I KNOW I AM WORK IN PROGRESS!

We didn't have a conventional courtship. And, our marriage follows suit. Our "meetings"/ Mr. Delivery Man stage lasted about 2 months. Our courtship was about 3 weeks and our engagement was for 4 hours. We literally had to learn each other AFTER saying "I do". I'm not saying this was the right/wrong or the smart/dumb way to do things. It's just how we did it.

Unfortunately, when he found me I was a total emotional wreck and carried a lot of baggage. HE helps me unpack one layer at a time and LOVES ME ANYWAY.

I can be overbearingly controlling. HE tries to compromise and LOVES ME ANYWAY.

My mood changes like the wind. HE tries to respect my current state and LOVES ME ANYWAY.

My health hasn't been the best over the years. HE takes care of me and LOVES ME ANYWAY.

I've made some stupid decisions and many men would've walked away. HE forgave me and LOVES ME ANYWAY.

It's not like I tried to take advantage of his kindness. Nor does he allow me to walk over him. I believe he feels the love I have for him. He knows I am willing to do what it takes to improve.

But most of all, I KNOW he sees the woman God has destined me to become and this is what allows him to LOVE ME ANYWAY!



In all things pray and seek the Lord. Allow Him to help you make decisions-not Kooley! These are just my thoughts, opinion and experiences.
