Correspondence

To whom it may concern,

I have decided upon this correspondence and feel that it will better suit me to express my thoughts to you by letter. I have many subjects to talk about; like a child in a candy store I browse my mind for that one morsel that will satisfy my palette for the time being. I hope that each letter finds you well and in good health, and indeed it may just find you by the northeastern road of the “Next Blog” button. If indeed that road was taken the welcome is greater. Nevertheless I write to you for the sake of reading, not writing. Writing is nothing without the reader and vice versa. In fact I plan to address these letters to both of you, Mr. and Ms. Christian, my first topic is one that is quite interesting and apposite to your lives as well as mine. I thank you for your roles in my life and hope that our communication can continue amicably despite our differences.


Mr. and Ms. Christian

I spend 9 hours a day at work. That’s at least three bathroom breaks guaranteed. The other day I opened the door to the bathroom and even before I stepped in, what I saw will change your outlook on marriage changed in an instant. Mr. Christian, what do you think marriage is? A life long commitment to someone? Provision. Support. A picture of the gospel. Did you think that because you had a hold of the commitment part, the one part no one seems to get, that you had it figured out?

“I know…its not all about sex”…or “Now I can be complete”

No my friends.

Out of the men’s bathroom door came a quite elderly couple. Yep, man and wife. Slowly making their way out as I held the door. He was just getting through the door with and walker and she had his arm balancing him as if he were going to fall off of a balance beam. It was obvious why they were both there. The man’s trips to the bathroom had to be a 2 person operation. And I doubt this was the only trip of its kind.

All tied with the flimsy thread that is called commitment. Marriages fail not because of a lack of commitment but because of an insufficient definition of commitment. That woman in that bathroom has chosen commitment. Willing to do what no one else would do. Mr. Christian, are you willing? Ms. Christian? You want the joys mentioned? Mr. Christian you need look only one place for this kind of diligence to another person. When you comprehend His work, marriage will be right for you.
