Your Spouse, Your Best Friend


This could be one of those days that I got sentimental when my husband is not with me. 
But, I do think of this a lot. 
Yes, we all have our own circle of friends, 
those whom we have known for a long time before we met our spouse. 
But, there is a special friendship and bond with our spouse that lights up the heart, 
a unique friendship.

"Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 
Husbands, love your wives, 
and do not be harsh with them."
(Colossians 3:18-19)

Our spouse have seen us on our best and our worst,
That is a beautiful thing,
Pain and Joy,
..lol..
At the same time.
UNIQUE
:)

For those who have children, 
your children will be leaving your house one day. 
It will never change the bond and love that you have with your children,  
but they will not be with you 
for the rest of your life,
as their focus,
in the same house.
There are things that you can and cannot
share with other people
including your children.
But,
You could always share those secrets
with your spouse.

Your children,
Your joy, pride and love as well.
But,
they will have their own focus,
their own family,
someday!

Your spouse suppose to be your main focus,
Your joy,
Your laughter,
Your life,
Your confidant,
Your partner at all circumstances,
Your forever!

"Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh."
(Genesis 2:24)

There is one person who will be that 'til death do you part's partner. 
Yes, your husband and/or wife will be the one who will always be with you, 
even when the children are no longer lives in the same house with you.

So, as much as you love your children, understand that your spouse needs you as well. 
You are his/her partner and best friend. 
Fulfilled each other's need, 
do things that makes you both happy,
with and without kids. 
Don't feel guilty to have date nights without the kids,
YOU and YOUR SPOUSE need that time, 
just the two of you.

"Haven't you read," he replied, 
"that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'  
and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 
and the two will become one flesh'?  
So they are no longer two, but one. 
Therefore what God has joined together, 
let man not separate."
(Matthew 19:4-6)

Love. LaughLive.
