A Pledge to my wife on Mother's Day
Dear Jeanie,
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
Don't worry, I'm still going to grill the burgers tomorrow and clean up the mess(I PROMISE!). I just wanted to let you know my thoughts:
- Only you as a woman could carry in your body an eternal being which bears the very image of God.
- Only you could conceive and nurture this life using your own flesh and blood, and then deliver a living soul into the world.
- God has bestowed upon you alone a genuine miracle - the creation of life, and the fusing of an eternal soul with mortal flesh.
This fact alone establishes your glory as a mother.
I understand that in order for me to be considered a real man, I must:
- Consider you worthy of protection, honor and love.
- Appreciate your uniqueness as a woman.
- Recognize femininity over glamour
- Recognize homemaking as a genuine career and
- Appreciate mature womanhood as much more beautiful than perpetual youth.
My pledge to you today and beyond.......
I will remember these things and I will act on them.
I love you!
Marvin
