He, Me and Her

"And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Romans 8.28 ( The Holy Bible).

An inspiration to our marriage and a lifetime promise that his grace abides and he will meet all our needs.

My life revolves around My hubby 'Joe' and my baby 'Blossom'. They fuel my very existence as a wife and a mother. As each day passes, the question I ask myself...is have I been able to give them the best of me. Sometimes I wonder, what is it that a woman longs for....a wife seeks...or a mother contributes. As for me I truly believe the very fact that God created woman after man was coz he knew he had to create a being that could complete his tent. So that the outcome would be a 'Bigger One'. And not two different individuals...as the world looks at Marriage today. I don't need my own space...coz I know my husband knows me more than myself. And there are no hidden corners amongst us.

Before my Joe could enter my life...I already looked up to a man who is responsible for shaping

my identity...the very me. My Dad. I have no words to thank him for all he has done for me.

Of course as a father his love lacks expression at times...but I can always sense the depth of the intense love he has for me. I will always be indebted to my dad for trusting my decision of marrying Joe. There were times when I rebelled against him...times I hurt him....times of trials. But the very fact that when marriage dawned in my life...he gave me to Joe...approved of this God send one in my life...and I realised that Words are not just the only way of expression of 'True Love'. Dad..I love you...from the bottom of my heart. And I will never put you down. I don't know if you will ever come across this blog of mine...but this is just for my heart's contentment.

Coming back to my marriage, as a mother, my contribution to this beautiful world will be a

wonderful human being.... our daughter Evelyn Blossom. God says 'Ask for wisdom and I

will give it to you'. Joe and I keep asking him for the same each day.

My heart cries to see little children being pressurised and pushed into areas which interest the parents more. Reality shows, musical competitions, quiz contests... competition..and constant games of comparison. It's like babies are being forced to lose his/her innocence and behave like adults. What are we trying to make out of them? Why are we enforcing our failures on them?

May God give parents the grace to understand how unique and special each child is. Joe and I believe God selected us out of the big lot...to be parents to our dear darling Evelyn Blossom. And it is our responsibility to shape her into a beautiful human being. We believe our marriage...our life is her mirror. When she sees her dad and mum hug each other to bid goodbye... she will know what LOVE is. When she hears her dad address the building watchman as 'Watchman Uncle'...she will learn that everyone is to be treated with dignity and respect. When she sees her mother care for her great grandmother....she will learn to respect and love old people. When she sees both of us pray before every decision we take....she will learn about God on whom she can blindly trust on...at all times.
