I am so incredibly, undeniably in love with my husband. Which works out, since, you know, we're married. But really, I do love him. I never fathomed a love like this. I always prayed I would marry a man with certain characteristics, but I think I never once prayed for a love like this. God has been so good to us, giving us stuff we don't even ask for. There are so many things I asked for in a husband and now that I'm with Clint I see so many things I didn't even think of asking for that are enormously complimentary to my personality. God knows me so much better than I know me.
I will say, though, there is definitely an element of fear that comes with a love as intense as this. I am so afraid of losing him. I anticipated this, though. It was one of my hesitations when he asked me out on our first date. I argued with him about the risk and he convinced me to take the chance. You know, better to have loved and lost . . .
I never thought for one second that I could comprehend God's love for me but that incomprehensibility is now even more so. I never knew a love like mine and Clint's. It has blown my mind. And this is just an earthly love. God's love is so beyond that. It's mind-boggling.
