When Kevin and I first started dating, we were very young. I was a Sophomore in High School and he was a Senior who was leaving in 6 months to go play college baseball at UTSA. I remember being head over heels. We wanted to spend every waking minute with each other. Then, after he left for college, we had a long distance relationship for two years. During that two year time span, I learned to never take a minute for granted. We would go 6-9 weeks without seeing each other, so every hour was special. I remember the butterflies and just being so excited to see him, even from a distance when he was playing in a game.
After two years of being long-distance, I finally moved to San Antonio for college. I can’t explain how awesome it was to be in the same city with the man I loved. We had so much fun in college and cherished every minute of getting to be around each other a lot. Fast forward three years, we graduated and got married.
Then, we started a day-to-day normal life of long hours at work and all the other responsibilities that come with being adults. I never want a day with Kevin to be “normal.” I want to always find joy and love in the simple things in our life and just “being” with each other, yet often, the busyness of life takes over and seeps into that joy.
Last week, I woke up in the middle of the night around five am and couldn’t go back to sleep. I laid there in the dark and watched Kevin sleep for a little bit. There is no better feeling than when he rolls over and puts his arms around me while we are sleeping. It was dark, we were cuddled up, and in that moment, I couldn’t believe he was mine. I am so thankful for my husband and I want to see him in that light all of the time. He is a wonderful gift from God.
Your husband is a gift, cherish him.
Have you ever viewed your husband as a gift? Think about that for a second. Do you receive your husband as a precious gift from God, or are you constantly complaining or trying to change him? Are you thanking God for your gift or are you telling God it’s not good enough?
In James 1:17, we learn that “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”
So, we should give thanks to the Lord for all the gifts He has given us. Today, tell God thank you for your amazing gift. Your husband is a gift, cherish him.
Totally agree! We have been married almost 19.5 years. We have grown together so much. I not only love him, but I really like him too! He makes me laugh-still! When I get frustrated with him, I ask God to let me love him the way He does. Great post! 🙂
Wonderful post. I cherish my husband. I hate when wives gossip about their husbands and treat them like overgrown childrens. Spouses should respect and love one another.
Marquis, this post is just….. perfect. I am not married, but I do hope that I can have your same attitude & take on marriage someday. I want to cherish my future husband as a gift as you do yours 🙂 I love your blog, and am excited to see what else you have coming!

name is Andrea Loops,I am so happy to let the whole world know how this powerful spell caster saved my marriage. Everything was going down the drain as my husband can not stop cheating on me with other women.He became used to always heating on me. I tried to make him stop, but I couldn’t help the situation, the more I tried, the harder it becomes. At times we will fight and go apart for some weeks and we will come back again just because of our kids. One day a friend told me about this spell caster who helped her too, his name is Dr alexzander high temple. she said he uses white magic spells to solve spiritual problems. I decided to give it a try, I contacted him and he told me it will take just 2 to 3 days and I will see great changes in my husband. He actually cast a spell, believe me after 2 to 3 days of the spell, my husband was confessing different names of woman he has slept with. He begged for forgiveness and never to try it again. From that day till now, my mind is at rest. My husband dislike every other women on earth except me and he now treat me as his queen. am so happy to have him for myself alone. The spell caster’s contact is [email protected] or call him with his number +2348075823891. You can contact him for any help, he is very powerful and can solve any kind of problem below.

This is so important to remember. It’s hard to get caught up in the mundane and forget about how much your husband means to you!

Though I’m not married this is such a great reminder to cherish my boyfriend. We’re in a long distance relationship so time together is deeply valued.

So beautiful, It can be so easy to get lost in the day to day things that we forget what is so special about our spouse. I love how you said it all 🙂
