A few things...

First, from the most amazing, wonderful woman in the world to me =)

MT 12:46 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47 Someone told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you."

MT 12:48 He replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."

linking with...

28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church-- 30 for we are members of his body. 31 "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." 32 This is a profound mystery--but I am talking about Christ and the church.

Can you see it? The fact is, Christ DID set the example for all husbands, identifying Himself with the church more than He did His physical family. I'm NOT saying He 'divorced' Himself from His physical family, yet Jesus DID strongly identify with the Church as His bride. How proud are we of our groom? How much do WE identiy with Him.


then...

Howsit two people can sleep the same number of hours, and yet one person feels absolutely rested, while the other still feels drained?

Perhaps, it's quite the same as how some babies cry themselves to sleep. We WORRY ourselves to sleep, and perhaps subconciously, never really DO rest and sleep.

I still need to let go and trust You more... Help me Father.
