Our topic is "Friendship in Christian Marriage." Sharpen your pencil and tell us how you and your husband celebrate your friendship together. Join us for Marriage Monday by visiting Chrysalis.
Thinking back to before our dating days, I remember that we were friends first. We had meals together and played card games in the dorm lobby till curfew on weekends with our group of friends. Then we started taking walks, just the two of us. It made me feel special because he felt comfortable talking and sharing about his life, work, and special memories of his grandfather. That is where our relationship started. I loved these talks and walks around campus. Through the years our friendship has grown. It is fun to be together and have my husband be my best friend.
I asked my husband if he had any thoughts on friendship in marriage. He said the same thing I had already typed....that we were friends first, how important that was, and how he enjoys the friendship we have now.

When Dave and I were first dating, we went for walks all the time. I will always remember one walk in particular. He was 29 and had been single his whole life. He told me that he considered me a reward from God for waiting on Him. I will remember that walk as long as I live!

Oh Girl, What a beautiful tribute and I felt like I was right there in the dorm watching this romance spring to life.
Neat...neat...neat... BIG hugs.
Mike and I were the same way! We were friends first. We were even dating other people and friends with each other. And then it was just like a lightbulb went off...the Lord had other plans for us.
Amen, we started off as "just friends" too. I loved your story of your walks around campus. How romantic!
Thanks for joining us for Marriage Monday today, BP.
Oh it is great to think about those days our relationships first started.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us.
Sounds like you too are wonderful friends.
Blessings to you♥
My husband and I were highschool sweethearts. We have known eachother since we were teenagers and our parents knew eachother as well. We, too, were friends and then became closer as we got older and eventually married. He is still my greatest friend today.
Thank you for sharing your story and making us think about our own relationships as they started and progressed into marriage. It brings back many fond memories.
Blessings,

This is lovely Bethany... I am so glad you have that special bond with your husband!!!
Many blessings-

Such a sweet tribute.
As you probably have seen on my blog, I first met Charlotte when she was 11 and I was 13. We got married 10 years later and have been married for over 50 years. We definitely were friends first. I had been a minister for one year before we married. When we married she was committed to going anywhere I felt the Lord was calling me. She is still my best friend and it is always a joy to be with her.
Such an important element..friendship! Beautiful post, my friend. Thank you for checking in on me while I was down and then away.
By the way, I'm such a 'fan' of yours! Come check out what that means! Big hugs.
I'm a 'fan' of yours...to see what that means...please stop by my site. I have a surprise waiting there for you.
Blessings,

Jim and I have been friends since I was 15 years old... we've been married for almost 35 years! He's my best friend!
