My Husband

God’s been talking to me lately about how He’s my husband, and I’ve been meditating on what that means.  Today I realized that in a marriage husbands and wives have to make it a priority to communicate.  They could go through a whole day together and never really hear each other.

So as far as I’m able I’m going to have at least one meal a day alone with God.  No TV, no distractions… just me and God.  When He was on earth He seemed to have an affinity for fish and wine.  My kind of guy.  I want to tell Him about my day.  And I want to hear what’s on His heart.

People tell me that I’m hard to get to know, that I don’t talk very much.  I think that’s true even with God.  He knows me, of course, but He wants a relationship.  He wants me to talk about what’s bothering me and thank Him for the blessings.  Maybe as I practice this with Him I’ll get better at doing it with other people too.

Suddenly I don’t feel so alone any more.
