You Were the One

From the first time we met, until our first date, I knew there was something special about you. After our first date, I had fallen in love. Finally after years of searching, God had sent my “Soul Mate” to me.

At first the attraction was not sexual in nature at all. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I did like what I saw. However, our relationship did not start with lust. I was looking for someone to love, to be my best friend, and to make a life with. It was innocent. Over the next few months our love grew. Of course the more we fell in love, the greater the attraction grew as well. It was a sweet love. A Godly love.

However, the closer the day of our wedding grew, the harder it was to not express that love. The temptations were there, but I am so thankful we waited. That day I watched you walk down that aisle was the greatest day of my life. I knew that later that night, we would no longer have to wait, and all I could think about was how God had blessed me with you!

Now, after 18 years, our love is stronger than ever. Thank you, God, for my mate. I have seen our love and intimacy grow as well as our love for God. I love that our bedroom is a special place, the marriage bed our escape. We have pushed each other and helped each other through our sexual encounters. Just as we come together in lovemaking to be one, our connection in life is the same. You have been the balance of my scales.

Love like this only comes from God. I am thankful that the intimacy of our lives is not just when the clothes are off, but with every aspect of life. In the words of a popular movie, “You complete me!”

I know this story may not be as juicy as others, but I felt like telling about the growth of our relationship! I believe God has that special person for everyone!
