Beloved,
I think God should be the only thing standing between us. Years ago, long before you and I started dating, I attended one of many Opus Dei retreats with my Mom. I remember the priest talking about how love between a man and woman is like a triangle with us at two points and God at the third. he said that when we move ourselves upwards to God, we naturally become closer as well.
God has helped us so much in our marriage, and I firmly believe God brought us together. As long as we continue to reach out to Him, pray together, and use His example as our guidebook, then we can and WILL be happy. I have to remember everyday that the progress we've made is not because either of us are strong or wise, but because God has given and daily gives us the tools we need to fulfill our promises to each other.
I look to you to show me how to love Him. You are the head of our family, and I trust in your guidance and wisdom. God gave you the graces when we received our sacrament to lead us. You just have to reach out and accept them.
Love,
Your Wife

You put your name on the blog, FYI.
I like the triangle analogy, and it also fits well with the rest of our faith (i.e. the Trinity).
