I have watched him in a season of need.
I have watched Jon in a season of adventure.
I have watched him in a season of desperation.
I have watched Jon in a season of testing.
I have watched him in a season of loss.
I have watched Jon in a season of blessings.
I have watched him in a season of uncertainty.
I have watched Jon in a season of want.
I have watched him in a season of contentment.
I have had a front row seat in his life and also a backstage pass.
I have seen him in public.
I have seen him in private.
There is brokenness and faithfulness.
Together. Brokenness and faithfulness.
It is beautiful.
Not perfect. Beautiful.
Happy Birthday to the man I call
my husband
my friend
my partner
my lover
my confidant
my good and perfect gift.
It is my joy to celebrate you today.
I'm guessing this birthday will be like no other, past or future.... the one where you hold on to each other a little tighter, linger a little longer, and praise God for your partner with a new sincerity. Enjoy!
