A Good (Great, wonderful, awesome...) Marriage

Today I was humbled. And I don't mean this in a bad way but in a "my cup runneth over" kinda way. You see, this morning I was getting out of my car to walk into work all the while talking on the phone to my husband. As I walked to the passenger side of the car to get my things, I realized the door was locked. So, I went to get my keys from my bag but they weren't there. I locked them inside the car. I tell my husband this over the phone and he promptly offers to bring me a set of keys from the house. Here's the catch, he was half way to Stillwater on his way to Tulsa when he offered. He had taken comp time from work this morning so that he could go pick up our new wheat truck there. I was hesitant because he was so far away and I didn't want to ruin his day. However, after calling the only 2 locksmiths in Ark City and being told they couldn't help me out because of the make/model of my car, he was my only hope. With a heavy heart, I called Jason back and broke the news. I don't know why, but I expected him to be at least a little bit annoyed or inconvenienced by this request. Instead though, he was jumping at the chance to help me out. He WANTED to be my hero today! He didn't care at all that Tulsa and the truck would have to wait, that his plans were ruined. No, instead he was loving, supportive, and placed me above all his needs. With this one act, he was able to make me feel completely loved. The kind of love that you don't have to be told, but you just know, it's that good. As I think about this act, I have to hold back tears. They're happy tears and awe tears because truly my cup does runneth over. Jason has filled it so full with love and continues to on a daily basis. This gives me great hope with my relationship with Christ. I've always found it hard to believe that no matter what, God loves me. Because of Jason's love for me, I now can, and do, believe in God's love for me. One day, I pray that my own daughter will love and marry a man like her father. A man that loves the Lord and his family as much as her own daddy does.
