| " IF I MARRY " by Ruth Graham * If I marry: He must be so tall that when he is on his knees, he reaches all the way to heaven. His shoulders must be broad enough to bear the burden of a family. His lips must be strong enough to smile, firm enough to say no, and tender enough to kiss. He must be big enough to be gentle and great enough to be thoughtful. His arms must be strong enough to carry a little child. DEAR LORD: ** Train our love that it may grow slowly...deeply...steadily; till our hearts will overflow unrestrained and steadily. Discipline it, too, dear God; strength of steel throughout the whole. Teach us patience, thoughtfulness, tenderness and self control. Deepen it throughout the years, age and mellow it until, that time finds us old without, within, will find us lovers still. HAPPY VALENTINE TO YOU!!! |
