Memory Verse

Psalm 94:19 (New Living Translation)

"When doubts filled my mind,
your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer."

Husband Encouragement

• Make sure he is fulfilled.
• Need him. Don't be so independent. He needs that.
• Pray for him... his walk with the LORD, his ability to love me the way I need, his leadership of our family, his ability to communicate effectively at work, his friendships...
• Support his decisions. Let him lead... even when the direction he takes is contrary to the way my family always did things. Cleave to him, & seek for God to lead him.
• Trust him to God, and make sure God & he are my head or covering. Seek God for the feelings to follow this decision and for it to come more easily and naturally for me.
• Send him love texts.
• Affirm him with my words... become fluent in the words of affirmation love language.
  

Personal Goals

• Stop... physically stop... and pray more. A book on relationships that I have been reading says, "how long does it really take for you to stop and let your husband hug you". It is talking about how busy we are as women and how often we pull away from our husbands when they just want to show us love by hugging us... many times we(I) are(am) too busy. I have been convicted that I not only do this to my husband, but I do it to God when I keep moving and doing while I pray. As I seek HIM during the day... and I should seek Him for each decision I make and each problem I face... with open continuous conversation like He is really in the room, then just like I should stop and let my husband hug me, I should stop and talk to God... like I really think He cares... other wise, maybe I'm just worrying instead of praying...
• Balance getting everything done with letting go to enjoy life & my husband and family.
• Ask God for happiness & believe He wants to give it to me.
