Before going to bed tonight, I want to honor my spiritual covering, my husband. I asked him the other night āwhat fills your cup babe?ā and one of his top responses was āserving others and helping people feel comfortableā and today I saw that in action again.
He invited different moms in our immediate family over our house and created a space for the kids to play outside, planned and executed the entire menu so none of the moms had to worry, and told me to relax and enjoy and meant it. It was hard for me to realize at first that a good spiritual covering in marriage wasnāt a mystical spiritual experience of supernatural anointing but more so seen in the consistent daily actions of a man who cares. A good covering reflects the heart of Christ and is rooted in love expressed in humble acts of service. It feels like safety, security, respect and belonging while also being committed enough to call you out and higher in love.
It looks like making you a cup of coffee, keeping a space tidy because you feel too sick to clean, buying you your fave snack, speaking kindly to you, praying for you when you feel weak, correcting you with respect and love, laughing with you about the most mundane things.
I didnāt grow up seeing a Godly marriage so, for me, being loved this way is a miracle. I love you
