I was convicted today at church. I was watching two girls who were obviously best friends. I watch as they hung on each other's words. A smile on their faces as they listened to each other. Whispering in each other's ears, joy and laughter on each face as they heard a joke or observation. I marveled at the purity of the love they have for each other.
My conviction stems from this: When did I start treating my wife less as my best friend, and more as a "life partner"? Why don't I have a smile, hanging on her words? I'll never leave her, want always to be by her side. When did I stop whispering in her ear, looking for the joy on her face.
God, thank you for convicting me this way on Valentine's Day.
