"I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them". (John 13:15-17 NIV)
Jesus had just washed his disciples feet.. Teaching them that we must learn to be of service to others..
I share this to tell you for the last several weeks my dear soulmate and sweet husband has spent his days caring for me in a way that Jesus told his disciples to do..
He was at my side helping me dress, bath, walk, keeping up with the house work, taking me and still driving me to therapy and Dr visits.. Weekly, driving me to the hospital to get my labs drawn.. Doing the laundry, making meals.. Waking up the next day to start all over again.. Very selflessly and lovingly..
While all the time, in pain himself ..
To my children ..
Use your father as your great example . Give of yourselves like your father has done pretty much all his life ..
I can't thank him enough and love him sufficiently for all the acts of love he has bestowed ..
Be caring, be loving, be kind, BE SWEET.. Because these are the attributes you should immolate in your lives, everyday, to all you encounter ..
I thank God everyday for this man of God and the selflessness of his gentle nature ..
Thank you sweetheart and I can only hope I show half the loving supportive care and acts of kindness in return as we live our remaining lives together ...
In case I may not have said it ..Thank you dear husband for all that you have done through our years together, but most especially over these past few weeks❤️
I love you Larry💋
