10 YEARS LATER

He’s been going through my old journals, notes and poetry.  I guess looking to find proof of something?????  SO….my curiosity has been peaked, and i decided to drudge through some of the “old stuff” myself.  The following is a “majority” of my thoughts that he found:

MAY 9, 1999

“Lavishing Love on Him”

I’ve been so preoccupied with the kids, I’ve not been giving enough attention to my hubby. He works so hard.  I wish he wouldn’t drink so much…..but i guess i understand why.  Sometimes i catch myself getting angry with him , and distancing myself just to punish him……this is sooo unfair and immature on my part.  So today i “touched” him every chance i got.  His response was that he missed having my full attention.  Gosh….had it been that long since i showed him any affection…..my poor hunny.  Tonight this is my prayer:    Dear God, help me to respect and reverence my husband…help me to always notice, regard, honor, prefer, and esteem him.  May i always praise him, love and admire him exceedingly.  May his heart trust in me confidently.  May he never have need of another.  I PROMISE TO COMFORT, ENCOURAGE, AND DO HIM GOOD AS LONG AS THERE IS LIFE WITHIN ME.   – teresa

IM DYING TO KNOW IF HE FOUND WHAT HE WAS LOOKING FOR.   10 YEARS LATER…….I WROTE “SEVEN TIMES SEVENTY SEVEN”  -jrn

PS….the fact that i promised is tearing me up!
