Creative Partnership.

I was emailed the most wonderful facts about the seahorse. Before you close this blog read on!
The love life of the sea horse is endearing. The couple court for several days. They change colour, swim side by side, hold the same strand of sea grass with their tails and wheel around. At last, letting go of any anchors, and snout to snout, they spiral up out of the sea grass. The female deposits her eggs in the male’s brood pouch. He then nurtures them for the next two or three weeks. During this time the female pays her partner regular visits each day. They change colour, and dance together in the sea grass fronds.Eventually the babies pop out, not from Mum, but from Dad! It was a creative partnership. What a blessing it is to have a creative spiritual partnership where we can pray together, hear God together, and help each other to bring visions into reality. It is not good to be alone, but if we are alone, we can say with Mary "be it unto me according to your will" for it is given to us to bring to birth words which God has put into our hearts.
