Last week, Chris got a raise. When he came home and told me about it he said…this is your raise too. You pushed me to be better. You believed in me and knew what I was capable of even when I couldn't see it. You have seen my at my absolute worst and you are always still there just loving me no matter what. And of course I started to tear up. I could hardly even say anything to him because it made me feel so loved and appreciated….and so damn proud of him. And so happy for him. And I told him that and all he could say was, be happy for us. And then I read your post and It all comes back!

We all go through hard times, but standing by the person you married, no matter how broken they are, is a true measure of love.

At our engaged encounter, we took away many things, but the number one thing we took away was "Love is a choice" You wake up and choose to love your partner, not matter what. It has helped us in many times, sometimes to diffuse some tension when one will just blurt out, I'm choosing to love you right now.

As someone who is about to get married very soon, it's an awesome reminder about how marriage is supposed to work. We get so caught up in our own selfish ways that we do tend to forget that sometimes. I'm definitely guilty of that and I needed this reminder. Great song!

Awesome and honest post, as always!

This is such an important aspect of marriage that isn't talked about enough. Beautiful writing.

This is EXACTLY what we've been talking about in a marriage Bible study we are in. And this is exactly something that is hard for me to hear because I am very guilty of not holding myself to the same *much too high standard I put on my husband. Thanks for the thoughtful Tuesday post!
