Generous wife tip

More questions from Lori. These questions have been pretty good. Helps us to take stock of where we are in our responsibility toward making our marriage a good one. These questions are especially helpful to me right now because my hubby and I are celebrating our 7th wedding anniversary today. These questions are a good way for me to take stock of myself and see what areas I need to improve over the next 7yr cycle of our marriage.

More questions for introspection ...

How is your spiritual walk? Do you need more time for prayer, study or fellowship? Can you invite your husband to join you in spiritual pursuits? Do you need a prayer partner? When was the last time you read a book on some aspect of spiritual growth?

... that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believer, according to the working of His mighty power ... Ephesians 1:17-19 NIV

How is your bedroom life? Is your husband satisfied sexually? Are you satisfied? Do you need to make more time for sex? Do you need to seek counsel or prayer for emotional healing where it relates to sex? Do you need to talk with your husband about your bedroom life?

My love is mine and I am his ... Song of Songs 2:16a NIV

Are you a good friend to your husband? Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have? What kind of friend/companion does your husband need or want? Do you need to reprioritize (or cut back on) your responsibilities so that you have more time for your husband? What activities does your husband want you to share with him?

I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me, I'd like to be the help that you've been always gald to be; I'd like to mean as much to you each minute of the day, as you have meant old friend of mine, to me along the way. Author Unknown

  1. For sure, these are 'great' questions for us all. I am so grateful and your children, community and beyond are and will be 'so' blessed due to your commitment to your husband.

    No, Lew isn't ready for any yard work. Those pics were taken before the accident. Lew is only capable of standing, walking, riding in a car or driving. He is in extremely good physical shape which is helping him to heal faster, but he still has a long ways to go. He cannot do any upper body stuff yet.

    Thank you 'so very' much for your kind words and 'all' of your prayers. :)

    Praying for many blessings in your life! :)

  2. Great post! We really should think of our relationship with our spouses as a friendship. A quarrelsome wife is awful for a husband to have. I am so grateful that we are able to be friends before everything else. BTW, thanks sooo much for praying for my family. You are such a blessing.
