As I am sitting here with this beautiful tea, and as I am writing to you on the computer on such a radiant day, I can't help but to think of how lucky we are. How lucky that I truly am to be able to sit here and enjoy a cup of tea, knowing that the man that I love is Godly, and will never hurt me, knowing that my children are safe and being home schooled by us , that they are having a wonderful childhood just being children, not having peer pressures of sex, gossip, and popularity as we did. It is so beautiful to see that my thirteen year old daughter cares about knitting and making others gifts, not is worried about what will happen if she kisses this boy or flirts with that one. Not worried about what anyone will say if she chooses to be a wife and mother for her vocation rather than a career woman that hasn't time for her own family or self. I can't help but to feel so blessed. We are truly blessed.
I love drinking this Date Tea with honey. it is a tea that even makes me feel pretty. isn't that silly? but it's true.
I wish that we could go somewhere together, like the beach... not where there are many people, I don't think that is ideal for our love...a place where it is just you and I and in the mist of it all we can feel the love of Christ shinning down on us... a relaxing, blessed feeling that only one true husband and one true wife through the grace of God can share. I wish we could lay under the shaded palm trees and feel the breeze in our hair. Holding hands, just swaying back and forth in the hammock. Feeling the total love of the smile of God as He looks down at us and thinks to Himself that we are good, that we are a lovely union, even though all that we have been through we have never stopped believing that HE could help us mend it, and that the trust we have in His mending makes Him proud. If only all married couples would trust Him like this..... humans are not perfect, but they can become Holy, and through His graces they can become saints. Saints with the beautiful vocation of marriage. There are far too less of these saints as He would like.
And He will look down on us and be proud of His son and daughter that have the grace and love of Him in their union, that is the only true way that it is and will ever be a true union, we may not be perfect- not even close, but we are graced, and held in His hands...and that makes Him very proud.
So, my tea is not yet gone and I am already writing as if there is no tomorrow....considering that the end of the world was today, I figure that I can write as much as I'd like (LOL). I am so happy that you and are are stern in our faith, that we research, and study it, that we consult the Church with matters such as this so that we are not put astray. I feel sorry for the poor fools that believed that man. It shows me how sadly even people that "think" they are being led by God are NOT. I bet the devil had a field day with this one, bringing fear to these knave people in the name of Our Lord. That is why we must cling to our Church, our Mother, and like children, know that She will keep us safe spiritually. There are too many evils out there trying to look as good not to cling, don't you agree?
And so I cling to you, my beloved husband, my knight, my domestic priest. You are so wonderful, so beautiful, and such a great husband and father that I could NEVER ask for anything other than what you are, what God made you to be. What God will keep sculpting us into being, what He will keep teaching us, and shaping us into being....that is all that I want us to be. I want us to be the people that God created us to be. With trial and error, and tons and tons of grace, I see it. We are his children and we are making Him proud.
My love, I cannot wait to take Holy Communion with you tomorrow. That is a date that I look forward to sharing with you every chance that I get. I love you.
Thank you for the lovely cup of tea, my darling.
