WHEN LOVE IS REALLY UNCONDITIONAL

If you asked me a few days ago do I love my husband I would've said of course yes because he is my husband. I have only been married a year and a half. So to be quite honest I was still a little guarded. There was a place I had not allowed my husband to be. I was still thinking in terms of me or I instead of we. But ask me that question today and I will look you in the eye and answer softly yes I love my husband! I fell in love with my husband all over again. Being newly married you don't always make the best decisions or judgements. Actually sometimes you just do some down right ignorant things that you cant take back. Our first real test came recently. Now I have to be totally honest if it was me who had to be forgiving I don't think I would have been so quick in the forgiving or trusting department. But my husband said its ok, I love you. He didn't get angry. I fully expected a declaration of war for a while but nope it didn't happen. I received love, comfort & understanding. The look he gave me was LOVE nothing else. I was afraid I had damaged a part of my marriage that was very important, trust. He simply said I know my wife, I trust you & I love you. I have never felt so safe & secure with anyone outside of my immediate family. After that moment I have resolved that my thoughts & allegiance will be to my husband & my husband only. A marriage has boundaries & lines you just don't cross. We are one and I will never forget that. No he is not perfect but my love for him will be. In this journey I am learning, I will learn. There will be another hill or mountain to climb. But as long as we have love, real love I believe we will be fine.
