TO MY VALENTINE...

I love you for the times you wake up in the morning before me and sneak out of bed so silently… just so that I won’t wake up from sleep…

I love you for being so good at everything…

I love you that you can fix everything in the house and we don’t need an electrician, plumber, technician or whoever else…

I love you for knowing your flaws and admitting when you’re wrong and being secure enough to apologise…

1 Peter 3:7 - Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.

Ephesians 5:25 - Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

Ephesians 5:28, 29 - Even so husbands should love their wives as [being in a sense] their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and carefully protects and cherishes it, as Christ does the church,
