Crazy, the things that come up when I was looking for something else in my saved blogging. I continue to find gold nuggets from my husband, who has gone to be with the Lord, 5 years now.
I just found this song, with my husband's note to me saying to "use this one."
So I opened it and listened, and oh my heart!!!! Now 5 years later, and here it is....
I will never forget the look on my husband's face before he went under that water. He was so happy to be free of the lies that held him in bondage, and to become a new man.
I am forever grateful for the faithful prayers from my friends, and that my husband and I never gave up on each other. We were true to those vows. But it sure wasn't easy. How many times I wanted to give up, but my husband was truly always sorry. I was that praying Christian wife, that God was molding into His forgiving and compassionate heart. I was trusting God to change him, but He changed me first.
I would always remind my husband that, all of us are sinners, and we all fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3: 23-24.
Saten was always trying to bring up my husband's past addictions.The battle is real for all of us! But our new identity is in Jesus. The old is gone. Raised to a new life in Christ, 2 Corinthians 5: 17.
Use God’s written word against him and his voice will become faint. He will never leave us alone because we live in this fallen world, and it is falling fast! God didn’t say to us, “I’ll die for you when you deserve it.” He said, no , despite your sin, and in the face of your rebellion, My Son will still die for you, Romans 5: 8.
Some of us come to this truth late in life like my husband did. He passed away not long after. The point is, it's never too late. Just come.
For Your glory Lord
