Day 4 (Feb 4) "Love is thoughtful" Psalm 139:17-18
When was the last time you spent a few minutes thinking about how you could better understand and demonstrate love to your spouse? What immediate need can you meet? What's the next even you could be preparing for? Great marriages come from great thinking.
The last time I did this was on our anniversary, December 31, 2010. Our gift giving/receiving are so different! I sat & thought about what to get him.....even though it went against the grain, I got him some practical and unromantic gifts. He was very happy with them so even though they were not anything memorable it was more beneficial in the long run.
Hmmmmm.....an immediate need, I am going to have to really think on that but probably sitting down to learn the software program for our financial study to help with the inputing of the receipts.
I am preparing for communication while he is gone over the next few weeks and months for training.
Day 5 (Feb 5) "Love is not rude" Proverbs 27:14
How does your husband feel about the way you speak and act around him? How does your behavior affect your mate's sense of worth and self-esteem? Would your husband say you're a blessing or that you're condescending and embarrassing?
I think that we our both pretty respectful with how we talk to each other. I hope that Ben feels that way too. We are both very affectionate so I hope and pray that this bolsters his self-esteem. I think that it is safe to assume that we both consider the other a blessing. (Not saying that I don't have to work on this but that we are definately on the right path!!)
