On April 27, was our seventh wedding anniversary.  As I was reflecting on how happy that he as made me, and how blessed by God we are, I thought it would be appropriate to talk about how God meant for marriage to be.  I have lived through the reality of a hellish marriage and now, because of God’s great grace and restoration, have been blessed by a heaven on earth marriage.  

When my husband proposed to me, over seven years ago, he promised to love me as Christ loves the church.  He began to teach me from Ephesians 5, what that should be like.  My heart melted and I said yes.  He has truly kept his word.  I thought it would be fitting for him to write the rest of this blog on what it means to love your wife as Christ loves the church.  (If I were you ladies, I would pass this one onto your husbands!)
