You Two are Like a Tandem

When Greg asked me to marry him he said, "We will be better together than we would be apart!"

It was so much fun team teaching together on this trip. Everyone loves Greg because he balances me out. 

I am loud. He is quiet.

I am over the top. He is calm.

I am too serious. He is funny.

I don't get jokes. He tells jokes.

One leader said to us, "You two are a tandem! You teach together like a tandem story. It is..." He then did a hand motion to show fullness with lots of swirls. He didn't have the English word but his motions spoke volumes. 

I believe in marriage the greatest gift we give each other and those around us is to find how we are called to tandem for the LORD. We should pray for it. 

Ask God, "How do you want us as a couple to serve you so that we are so one we are like the two tires in motion on a tandem bike?" This is a prayer God loves to answer.

Don't get me wrong. It isn't easy learning to tandem. But it is worth the wobbly struggle and skinned knees!
