Always Be True

There's a song that I liked when I was younger. It was from a record we had as kids. It went:

Always Be True
Always be true, always be true
Be true to the one whom your married to
love him like no other in all that you do
love him forever and always be true

Always be true, always be true
be true to the one whom your married to
love her like no other in all that you do
love her forever and always be true

If your faithful in this you are faithful to God
always remember how he has loved you
love one another and always be true.

In my mind I picture my mom and dad, my husband and myself. I see each couple lovingly taking care of each other. Always be true, simple. Lately my parents being older have been having issues in their life with their health. Pretty serious stuff. I have felt like I am trying to be their cheerleader, trying to listen. Trying to encourage them. Being positive. I feel pretty good nowadays. Which I think God had shown me so I can help my parents in ways that would be helpful to them.

In my personal life it seems like all the little stuff is being blown out of proportion. What I can't figure out is why does no one else see that this is not the important thing in the grand scheme of things. Let's bring it back to basics, always be true. Be true to the one whom your married to....... love her like no other in all that you do, love her forever and always be true.

We don't have the promise of forever. We don't have the promise of tomorrow. God has given us this day. And I really want to be loved today. It's not just about one thing, it can be about multiple things. Being faithful, being honest, putting that person and their needs first, making them smile, making them laugh, holding their hand, giving a hug. The list could go on and on. Cherish this day. That's all you get!
