iMarriage

So, we are going through this study in "Small Group" called iMarriage by Andy Stanley. He has really been going through and trying to explain the difference between Expectations and Desires. To be totally honest, the study itself is so far beating a dead horse, but we do enjoy the class and enjoy the fellowship of the other people in the class. About every other Sunday, we watch a video of Andy while he's at a conference. Yesterday, the video was about fulfilling the place of God for your spouse. If that makes no sense to you, allow me to expound. God does many things to try to show his love for us. Andy states that God puts two people together so that they can see the real intimacy and love of Christ. I know that no one loves and cares for me as Todd does. God put him here so I could experience the real compassionate love of Christ. When I really thought about what he said, it began to convict me. Do I really love like that? When I get upset and pout around, does that really help me exemplify the love of my God towards Todd? Just remember what love is, who gives you that love, and what you're supposed to do with that love.

I know that's short, but that's all I've got right now.
Plus... I should probably go back to work.
