This morning, I was awoken early by my sweet husband and we talked for an hour. I have to say, that if he were here, we wouldn't spend an hour talking to each other before we started the day. He Skyped me, so, I got to spend time looking at his face. When we skype, we look at each other's faces. I focus on his face. I get to see his blue eyes and his gentle smile. We sit still and talk for an hour. It is good, it is sweet, it brightens my life.
We talk about everything and nothing. This morning, we talked about the economy, European politics, middle-eastern weather patterns, the stock market (apple is good right now). We talked about Kailey, Seth and Jordan. We talked about how much we like each other. He told me I was beautiful. I showed him the pile of cookies I made for him and, while I was sitting still in the early hours, I watched the sun rise. I also noticed as I looked outside over my yard with the sun slowly bringing light to the yard...that there is a sweater in the tree...
We talked about grace. He had been thinking about it, praying for understanding, I had been reading about it and came across an article that I sent him yesterday. He prayed for understanding, I came across an article. God is amazing. We are 7,000 miles apart and we had the same gospel question in our hearts and prayers. I didn't know he was searching for understanding, he didn't know I was reading about the topic, but God knew. Grace. God is good.
