For most of our marriage there were two main people in our lives, myself and Alicia , - and I usually took the lead. God was there, but almost always as a guest, a sort of onlooker, albeit an onlooker both approving and ready to become involved in whatever way I and Alicia wanted.
Now that Alicia has died, and her spirit is with God, all that has changed, and I must learn to live with the consequences of that change.
Where once I led the way and, in many respects, Alicia was content to follow behind - now it is Alicia who leads and, in the years ahead, I must follow because she is leading me home to God. The God who made us both, not just for each other, but for Himself also.
Now God is Alicia‘s‘ senior partner,’ - and I am very much the junior!
