On American Idol we witnessed the sweetest public display of affection that had the audience in tears.

The contestant’s name is, Thunderstorm Artis, and he is obviously a caring and understanding husband. He sang a song he wrote for his wife that recalls his devotion and deep love for her.

But the most astounding part was the way he understands her every need. This song speaks volumes from which husbands can learn to help them love and understand their own wives better.

Following is his performance with the lyrics below. What an example he displayed to a watching world.

I saw you crying last night. Watch tears fall like stars from your eyes.

You don’t need me to fix it, just need a minute. Someone to be by your side.

I see the love that you give, each time I look in the eyes of our kids.

I’m always reminded how beautiful life is, and how much this time is a gift.

If you ever get the feeling, the feeling you’re falling apart, you can…

Give me the doubts in your head. And I’ll hold all the pain in my chest.

Let me carry your weight on my shoulders. Let me carry it over and over.

‘til there’s nothing, nothing left.

‘til my last dying breath.

Thank you for stopping by today. This post begs the question, what example does my marriage display by the way I love and understand my spouse?

It would be good to talk about this together.

We all need to grow and oftentimes in ways we may not realize. Asking good questions like:

Do you feel that I see and hear you when you need it most?

Do I ever make you feel invisible?

These will open the door to emotional intimacy—the soil where a strong marriage can thrive.

Blessings,

Tom and Debi ❤️❤️
