As I have said before, my wife was always on the tithe wagon - I was (am) the one struggling. Wanting to, but not willing to take that step. Well, today, I get this email from my wife:Did I put all your jeans in the wash last night? Did it cause you problems this morning? If so, I'm really sorry I forgot about it.
Are you having a good day? Mine started out kinda weird. I ended up giving my coat away to a HS kid who was walking down countyline with only a t-shirt on.
I gotta go get some food-
love ya-kath
Did you read that? "I ended up giving my coat away to a HS kid who was walking down countyline with only a t-shirt on." I definitely married over my skis. I'm not saying I wouldn't do it. It's just that my wife has always had such a great drive to always think of someone else. I probably would have just kept driving, not thinking of the temperature outside. Not her. She gets it. She gets that we are all part of one big group, and we need to remember that some of us our blessed in one way and some of us our blessed in another, and we have these blessings to share and give to each other. That's why I need to remember and be faithful with my five-the. I am blessed with enough money. Sure - some days I worry (count today as one of those, again). But I have a roof. I have clothes. I have food. So many people don't. My daughter thinks just like my wife. Is it a woman thing, or just a genetic thing on my wife's side?
For the record - my jeans were fine. I didn't have to work in my boxers. And I love ya too, Kath.
