Marriage talk has arrived at our doorstep. Issues arise and inventories are taken. One such topic is where to potentially live in our first year or two of marriage. My initial focus: practicality. Leah's ideal: living alongside the poor.
Though I may have more sound doctrine on paper and have more of an intentionally evangelical mindset, she hits the nail right smack on the head (probably without even thinking about it) when it comes to living out Scripture.
Is my preference to live amongst the poor? Not really.
Did I get too comfortable somewhere along the way? Uh huh.
Do I like where my heart is at now? No.
Am I willing to dive head first into such a lifestyle anyway? Yes.
If my trust is all in with Jesus, then how can there be room for fear? He is in control—of everything—after all.
(Thanks for being my better half, mama! Blessed indeed.)
