Monday Marriage Moments {Charlie Brown & Sacrifices}

-We love marriage just as much as we love weddings. Take a moment to prepare not just for the wedding, but for the marriage –

I found this on my new addiction Pinterest yesterday and it spoke to me. It is SO true! And then it hit me: I never watch Paul’s boring TV shows with him… yet Paul has been watching Drop Dead Diva with me. I think I need to step it up. I guess its time for some war movies or something.
Whether its TV shows, movies, or choosing a restaurant, the concept is still the same. Make a sacrifice for the sake of your fiance(e) or spouse. That’s the magic of marriage and how it makes us better people, more joyful people. Making a sacrifice for Paul, watching his boring TV show says love. It says spending time with you and being by your side is more important to me. It says you are more important to me.
Many people say “she knows I love her” or “he knows I love him”, but in the words a friend once spoke to me, Where is it? Is it in the way you speak to each other? Is it in the way you make time for each other? Is it in the way you do things for each other? Is it in the way you advance each other’s preferences? I often need to renew my commitment to love and honor Paul because “all the days of my life” is a long time and my memory is short. So I renew it now to love and honor my spouse, even when it means making sacrifices. I have to go now, it’s time to watch some old episodes of Band of Brothers
