I adore Allen Robert Paisley because he points me toward God. I have had some discouraged days lately, and when I am discouraged, I often email him from work. Instead of ignoring my emails (even though he totally could because he is so busy) or even writing me back with lots of compliments from his own mouth, he responds with an email or call quoting scripture. He digs in the Word, finds something encouraging and then passes it my way. I love that he values my relationship with our Father so much that he would rather my focus be on God then on him. Because let me tell you, I love to focus on Allen. And the coolest thing is, he has been doing this through our whole dating relationship. When we were dating and he was trying so hard to guard me and my emotions, he would say "I have so many things I want to say to you, but I want to guard your heart, so here is what I think God would like to say."
And the thing is, my heart is his now (second to being God's) and he doesnt have to "guard" it anymore, but he still points me to our Lord.
How blessed I am.
Thank you, God, for my husband
Can you see how much I adore him?
