I've been encouraged to start journaling again. I thought I should share a God Spot too. As you all know Fred and I have been trying to keep our heads above water in our marriage. A couple of weekends ago we were invited to a get together at Medina Lake with the Childrens ministry. I was looking foward to just resting and doing nothing. There were two jet skies at the lake house, one was very stable and the other you really had to use your whole body to stay upright. I had never been on one and Fred and I have talked about getting one in the future. So Fred said "would you like a ride"? I said sure. Of course we got on the unstable jet skie. God is funny. Anyway we get out a ways and we tip over. We go flying off. I thought it was funny. Untill, I relized after several times of trying to get back on that it was not going to happen.
A group from the party is going by in a boat and try to help us. After several more times we finally get going. As we are going I keep hearing what some one told me before we took off. Hold him tight and go which ever way he goes. Well, I thought that was what I was doing but apparently not. I caught my self fighting the direction Fred was going and of course went flying off again. That ride was very short lived. LOL I had to swim to shore alone while Fred rode the jet. He was having fun. LOL
While I was swimming I could still hear those words. Hold him tight and go which ever way he goes. Its funny how you hear something but you dont really listen. So Fred comes and picks me up at shore. We get on and I had to tell myself the words that I kept hearing. I slid myself all the way up to the back of Fred and said the words God gave me. We are one!!!! I have never ever held on to him so tight. I had never felt as one as I did at that moment. Fred yelled just stay with me. That was the hardest trust action I have ever had to take. I thought we were going to fall again, I closed my eyes and kept telling myself we are one. Through all that God was also saying Trust me!!!!!! Fred being Fred(wild man that he is) the man I fell in love with, started doing donouts in the water. Fred yelled dont let go, I yelled back Im not WE ARE ONE! Of course my eyes are still closed but at the same time I wanted to enjoy it. Also I guess if my eyes are still closed I'm not totally trusting either, Him nor HIM. So I opened one eye(baby steps here). LOL The water is swishing and swishing around and around. You got to just love this man.
Needless to say we got back to the Lake house in one piece. This photo is not of Medina but I will get one. The people that were on the boat actually took an action picture. So I'll try to get that. So, I need to find verses that speak to me on those bold words. I know my Epic family can Help. I dont want to forget this picture the Lord gave me.
