I just spent the last week on vacation, doing nothing really. Just running around enjoying the company of Shivonne friends and family. This past Sunday was my 27th birthday (and yes I'm terrified of turning 30) which was a great time due to the time and effort of Shi. She spends countless hours working on passports for the bridge, cooking, sometimes 2 meals a day, babysitting spring hills children and still managed to find time to plan a 3 day birthday to her very undeserving husband.
If there are any MEN reading this, let me just say what a blessing it is to have a wife that LOVES Jesus Christ, truly loves him, and allows and wants her husband to be the head of the household just as Christ has called us to be. This is exactly what I get from Shi. However, more times than not I am ashamed to say that I fall on my face in being the Godly husband that she wants and so desires. I'm praying very hard that God will give me a pure heart a tamed tongue and a understanding mind, so that I will be the husband that she needs.(Notice not the husband that I want to be) Men of God it is time that we start being MEN again and stop allowing society to tell us what a "man" is and start following the examples of the MEN of the BIBLE.
Put your wives second only to Christ and the rest will fall into place (with hard work of course) your job is not first, your football is not first, and I would dare to say that your Church is not first, love your wife as Christ loves the church and your wife will follow you anywhere.
I love you shi!!!!! The weekend was amazing, can't wait to start our ballroom dancing lessons with you.
