Maui # 24
Today is tuesday april 2 2013 and I,m
into week no 8 never thought it would go this long.
Man Its a long time since I stepped
away from Cynthia`s last embrace outside the court house in NE
portland.
No ,neither she nor I were in trouble
just some work related issue she had to deal with.
When I look back at that day I wish I
had run back and stolen a long deep Kiss makes me cry just thinking
about it.
I have never been this deeply in love
before. Yes, absence bloody well does make the heart grow bleeding
fonder :).
I,m truly thankful to God for the gift
of true love, it does make us do crazy things.
Now remember all this was Cynthia,s
idea hahaha she was the one that called me from work to ask me when I
was going...as in
“Are you going this week or next
week”
I Said “going where”
“ Maui of course”
Now guys tell me how many of you have
ever had your wives suggest you buy a one ticket to Maui!
Ok if they cant stand your presence
might suggest you take a trip to the wood shed for a special surprise
visit with Bruno, but Maui?
Ok, anybody ?..didn’t think so ;0)
Nope, I married the not the golden
goose! but a priceless treasure that I had been waiting a long time
to meet.
This trip has really been a test of the
foundation of our marriage and with God as the foundation stone its
rock solid, with out him it would be sinking sand as truth be told
I,m a man..yup a man with all his issues like any other upright
walking Neanderthal on the beach with eyes in his head.
You know one of the wonderful things
about Cynthia and moi`s relationship is that we talk about
everything. She has my back and I have hers even though we are 3000
miles apart and at times its painful we still know what the other is
thinking and the timing of our phone calls are priceless.
I can honestly say we do not have a
normal relationship by worldly politically correct standards,
although come to think of it I,m most defiantly not normal and don’t
all agree at once.
If I was to die right now and believe
me I have no intention of leaving the planet just yet, so no
premature celebrations please hahaha... but I can honestly say I,m a
content man. I have neither riches nor vast property ,but I do have
amazing peace in my heart from God. That peace and love are my
Moonlight by night and my compass by day and just writing about it
fills my heart with love and wonderful appreciation that he would
send his son to die for such a misfit like me who has left no stone
unturned as he has walked , crawled or ran through this earth.
I,m so incredibly humbled that a God so
vast and huge would consider someone like me and even more so send me
some one like Cynthia, I,m truly a blessed man.
Cynthia I just want to finish this blog
this evening by saying you are the most beautiful woman in my life
and Its an honor to be your husband and I promise before God and man
That I will continue to love and honor you as long as there is breath
in my body with Gods almighty strength!!!
Good Night My Love Sleep well :0)
Good night World
Mahalo

Oh honey, thank you so much...reading this makes me cry! it's funny because when I look back at the day we said see you soon; I stood there watching you as you walked away....you kept turning and waving and sending me kisses...and I continued to watch you until you disappeared up the hill and around the corner.
ReplyDeleteIf I would have known that after 8 weeks we would still be apart I would have ran after you and probably would have stood in God's way and would have made you stay.
We wouldn't have learned; especially you, everything we have about ourselves and what we truly desire. One of many things that you finally realized is that you are a roving pastor and through that you touched so many people's lives!
I'm so very in love with you!!! This time apart has been incredibly hard for both of us! It's been very hard for me to be in our home and you aren't here. I don't have you to come home to! and I'm still in the middle of the rat race that living in the mainland offers. I desire to be there with you; more than anything in this world. I know this will be soon but all in God's timing.
It is very hard for me to trust God's timing some times because I have no idea what he is doing and when he plans on doing it. we have asked ourselves many, many times "what the heck are we doing?...just come back" but we don't have peace about it and we want to trust God in this huge leap of faith we are both taking. I have to believe that He will honor us for honoring and obeying him!!!
I love you so so sos so so so very much!!!
