Last night was hard and necessary. Marriage can be one of the most difficult and rewarding things a person can every undertake in their life. It's risky business. Last night brought me to the core of who I am. I had to take a look at me, the real me. I hate difficult conversations. I avoid confrontation. I don't like to be out of my comfort zone. But when I am, oh, when I am...it makes all the difference. It brings closeness. Intimacy. Honesty. In the end, it feels so good. Again, I was reminded of the verse in Isaiah 40. "...He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom." It got me through yesterday. There were times when I needed to be silent and listen. Listen to Him and him.
Silence can be deafening.
