The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Man And Wife

A response to BOTH Pilgrim and Sojourner.

Thank you BOTH for the excellent "counsel" I had hoped I would receive here at The Highway! Your words, encouragement AND scripture quotes are educational to one such as me, amateur in my knowledge of The Book.

Sojourner, I pray for your wife and partner as I will for my own. But, in my amateur way of saying what you and Pilgrim have said, I often tell people that life on this earth is akin to a card game, with God The Father as the dealer. We must play the cards he deals and acknowledge his supremacy above all else. His "dealership" guides my life and that's why I occasionally read from scripture to her in quiet moments of our visits. Billie knows that she and I are in God's hands and I'm just not eloquent enough to say that in a proper manner.

Again, thank you Sojourner and Pilgram AND Chestnut Mare for your thoughtful words of help and support.

PS to Pilgrim: I enjoy reading from Matthew...
