Conscious Cuddles

It is beautiful to see how Tim and I develop certain patterns and ways in our lives together. We were looking forward to this taking place, realizing you don’t just sit down with one another and decide on how to do things. No, it’s something that comes into existence without much effort. It just happens. Suddenly you realize you are doing something that really works.

I know we are still newlyweds but I sure
hope this will not merely be a ‘newlywed thing’. I can’t wait to get to bed at night. It’s such a joy to be together after having been separated for a day and each of us having done our own thing. Reuniting at night is very sweet and something I look forward to. And once in bed I can’t wait to wake up in the morning. And we have gotten into this routine where neither one of us gets up before CC’s, conscious cuddles. Yes, something like ‘conscious cuddles’ exists in our home. No matter how tired at night, we always have our cuddles and prayers before going to sleep. And no matter how busy and filled up our day is, we make sure we set the alarm clock early enough we can have our CC’s. It really is a sweet thing. This is one of our habits that slipped in and I sure celebrate this about us. I trust we develop more routines and habits like this.

One comment on “Conscious Cuddles”

Ohhh- that was a mighty tug on my heart- especially the “conscious” cuddles part. If you truly set your intention to always come back to each other- then no amount of separation will be too much to overcome. Yay for both of you 🙂 Happy V-Day!

From hopeless to hope.
From hurting to healing.
From surviving to living.
From crying to laughing.

That is my story. It wasn't easy.
The road of healing is the hardest one to choose. Sometimes it seems easier to bury or hide. But healing and recovery are possible. With God all things are possible! But it doesn't mean God does for us. It is my experience that I had to choose and work hard myself, with God on my side. God doesn't fix for me, He fixes through me. It is a painful process worth living.

The story continues.
The chapter may be closed.
The book however isn't.

I have reached the wonderful chapter of marriage.
2012 was my year. I love sharing life now and never want to forget what God has given me and done for me. Redemption is a word that was said most on our wedding day. We each have suffered much and God deserves all praise for having been faithful and leading in times of trouble. He overcame and His redemptive power is amazing and I want to witness to that. We do not live for ourselves but for Him.

Like I said, the story continues.
With it's ups and downs. Embracing that journey is what makes life life. It's not important where I go, it's how I go.

For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem's sake I will not remain quiet, till her vindication shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch. The nations will see your vindication, and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord bestow. You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord's hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God. No longer will they call you Deserted, or name your land Desolate. But you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the Lord will take delight in you, and your land will be married. As a young man marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you.

As for me, I will always have hope
