There's this young couple I have known for a while. I see the way they dote on each other.
It is very rare you see the husband without the wife and even if the wife appeared first, the husband was never far behind.
During church service you would see them eyeing each other.
I recall during a Sunday Service in which his wife was to take the Bible Reading, I could remember him blowing her a phantom kiss as she climbed the pulpit.
It was her blush and smile that made me look at him only to see him making faces at her.
It was beautiful.
As Men's fellowship leader back then, I teased him a lot and told him in all honesty how many men are learning how to treat their wives.
He sighed and said "Bro., it was not always like that initially. Our first year as a married couple was a disaster".
"Let me tell you a story and then you would understand why I cherish this woman so. I know that God has said a husbands should love their wives but I never understood that love". He said.
Deep down, I was always afraid I would make a bad husband and an even terrible father.
During our first year, this man you are looking like this had been celibate for 4 years since I met my wife.
No other woman interested me - NONE! However, as I got married, my ex came out of nowhere and we opened communication.
I told myself "Nothing can happen".
I was wrong
