How to love our husbands

At one of our homeschool support group meetings............. I had to lead the meeting............which is a whole other story in itself and we wont get into all that.....lol. What I did want to talk about here is the topic of our meeting;

How to love our husbands even though your a homeschool mom.

We used a book and I wanted to over the topics here because I know how important it is for our husbands to feel wanted and number one next to our kids. When we are homeschool moms it's easy for us to put our kids before our husbands and therefore our husbands start feeling left behind and unwanted. So here are a few things that husbands want;

Every husband wants a Helper.............what are some of the ways that you can help your husband?

Every husband wants to be Followed...........what are some ways that you could spend some time with him doing what he likes to do?

Every husband wants to be Encouraged..........what are some ways you can encourage him?

Every husband wants to be Believed in............is there a dream or and idea that he has that you could believe in him with?

Every husband wants to be Admired................how can you admire your husband?

Every husband wants to be Desired.................how can you show him that you desire him?

Every husband wants Acceptance...............what ways can you show him that you accept him the way he is?

So I hope that as you read this post that you could pick one are that maybe you could work on for your husband to show him that he is number one.

Be Blessed!

1Cor. 10:13

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it..........1Cor. 10:13

This is my favorite verse and I sometimes wonder why that is because the trials that I go through sometimes feel that they are to much for me to handle. when I am in a trial I will look up that verse and ponder it asking the Lord..........ok Lord your word says that you will not give up more that I can handle and here I am very overwhelmed with this situation and can't handle it. Why would you allow me to go through this? You know when your going through something you don't feel like a strong person at the time but according to this scripture the Lord sees me as a strong person who can handle the trial at the time. I sure wish I had more confidence in myself like the Lord does. the last part of the verse is what comforts me the most.............the Lord will provide a way so that I can stand....................just reading that gives me comfort. I pray that as you go through trials that you will be able to recall that verse and that it will bring comfort to you.

Be Blessed

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful that the Lord isn't finished with me..............He continues to grow and stretch me in different areas.

Happy 20th Birthday Tim

Wow.........where does the time go. It's hard to believe that 20 years ago I gave birth to a wonderful baby boy. I was a single mom at the time living with my parents. I am thankful that I had my parents to help me out. My dh came into our lives when Tim was 2 and we were married when he was 3. Tim has brought so much joy into our lives and we are so blessed to have him. He is serving the Lord, going to college and working at our church. It's such a joy to see him grow in the Lord and share the talent that God has blessed him with. He plays guitar on the praise team and he is also the leader of the youth band. Happy Birthday Tim........we love you and very proud of you.
