The moments we share can be positive or negative.
The moments we share can be happy or sad.
The moments we share can help us grow or tear us down,
But most importantly the moments share are together.
Through thick and thin, in High and low tide, rain or shine I am thankful we have each other.
There is a devotional book Brenda and I reflect on called Moments with You by Dennis and Barbara Rainey. Everyday I appreciate what I learn, ways to come closer to God, and opportunities to receive advice as we end the parenting day and Pearl lays in her bed falling asleep.
What I never expect, but find invaluable is the precious moments of listening, speaking, sharing, and being together as we read, discuss, reflect, and pray for each other, our family, and our relationship with Christ.
A passage for reflection:
NIV (New International Version) Colossians 13:12-15
"12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. 15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful."
