Multitude Monday-Appreciation

holy experience

Appreciate.
I am learning the meaning of that word.
See, Jason has been working a construction job for his Dad.
This is a good thing.
The sad part is it is four hours away.
Which means that I do not get to see him Mondays through Friday nights.
This past week was the second week he was gone.
Three weeks to go.
I miss him more than I ever thought possible.
But it has caused me to appreciate even more the time we do have together!
So this weeks Multitude Monday is going to be about my prince-

#31: His love for the Lord. He wants to live 
for Jesus no matter what. His faith amazes and challenges me! 
He does not just talk the talk 
he actually walks the walk.
#32: The fact he is the spiritual leader in our relationship.
I have realized that being the spiritual leader 
does not mean being perfect.
One of the things I respect most
about Jason is how he is not afraid to humble 
himself and ask forgiveness.
That is one of the best qualities I think someone can have.
Not being afraid to admit when they are wrong.
#33: The way he smiles at me.
It is a special smile.
Reserved only for me.
And when I look up to find him just smiling at me
I feel like the most treasured girl in the entire world.
#34: I love reading the Word together.
Just sitting there holding each others hands
and spending time with our Savior.
It is an amazingly beautiful thing.
#35: Our inside jokes
that no one else would necessarily get
but that we get a kick out of.
#36: Did you know it is possible to have ticklish hands?
Jason take the time to remind me how very ticklish I am very often
and you know what? 
I love it.
I love teasing each other.
I love how we can have so much fun together.
#37: His hugs.
#38: The way his eyes bulge when 
he is pretending to be shocked or mad at me. 
#39: The way he makes me absolutely melt.
#40: The fact that he knows me.
The real me.
And chooses to love me 
in spite of it all.
I miss him so much sometimes it hurts.
But the Lord has been working in amazing ways while he has been gone.
The Lord has been doing work on us both.
Together.
And seperately.
The lessons we are learning are sometimes painful
but oh so worth it.
Plus, Jason has had the awesome opportunity 
to really be able to share Jesus with his coworkers.
Please pray that the Lord will be glorified through him as he works.
I am praying that the entire crew will be saved! 
Our God is big!
We will see what He does!

So appreciation.
For him.
But also for those of you who have be to seperated for long periods of time
from the one you love.
I have a lot more respect for you since
getting just a taste of what many people have
to live with long term!
Appreciation.
My love, my gift from God, my hero and my prince.
I am so blessed!
What do you have to appreciate today?
Ps: I am amazed at the response I got for 
my previous post:
"Our Story-Part 1: How We Met".
I am insanely busy but I do promise to try to have 
Part two up AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
Even though it is kinda fun to keep you all in suspense ;)
Blessings to you all!

This is the sweetest thing ever! I haven't met my prince yet, so even though I can say I "miss him" because well, he isn't in my life at all, I DO have to spend days apart from him until we meet & that hurts! But just for a while!

love ya! You are so awesome ;) Jaseon is so blessed!

very sweet! reminded me of how i felt about my husband before we were married too... remember these things... they will help keep your marriage strong and keep you in love, when life threatens to take over. i once read a quote: "remember when you got married. remember where you got married. and remember why you got married." the why is vital... especially once kids enter the picture and priorities shift. i wish you all the best :)
