Proverbs 31: 11 - 12
11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
Okay, let's see. Her husband has full confidence in her. That is a big one I need to work on. I want my husband to have no regrets and feel that his home is his safe haven....his resting place.....his palace. Hopefully as I work on the house in the upcoming weeks, it will be a "make-shift" palace. It is kind of hard to get that "palace feel" with a two year old and a six year old....toys everywhere, homeschool area in your dining area, etc.
I want him to lack nothing. By that, I mean, I want him to feel he has everything he needs. Ok, working on that one, also...check!
I want to bring him good, not harm.
I don't care if your guy is a prince or a frog......a charmer or someone who forgets your birthday....he is YOUR husband. God put you two together for a purpose. People make mistakes...I also have to remember that God wired these guys' mind a lot different from ours. Therefore, I build my husband up no matter what. I am very blessed to have a godly man as a husband and father to my two boys. God sure knew what He was doing when He brought us together! I needed someone to challenge me and put a fire under my behind....especially spiritually. I was the sweet, Southern Baptist born and bred, deacon's daughter. I never asked the "hard" questions. Well, he challenged me with those questions.....and helped me become stronger in my beliefs.
I will continue to work on this "Proverbs 31 wife" stuff. I will admit, just like Paul, that I am working towards perfection....even though I know I will never reach it. :)
