Day Fourteen: Laughter!

It is important for us to laugh often in this world.  I'm thankful to God for a hubby who makes me laugh with his silliness and silly jokes sometimes. :-)

A merry heart does good,

like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.

(Proverbs 17:22 NKJV)

Day Thirteen: Prayer!

I value prayer! I cherish the moments that we have spent together praying for each other and others.  Prayer is so important to our marriage and it is something that I wished we did together on a daily basis as a family.  But today I am thankful to God for the times that we have prayed together and my prayer is that we will increase in our times of prayer even the more. Thank you for taking the time to spend time with God and me in prayer.

Father, thank you for the privilege to be able to come to you in prayer through Your Son Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior and thank You, Daddy, for hearing our prayers and may Your Holy Spirit urge us all the more to pray without ceasing in Jesus name. Amen!

Day Twelve: Walking!



I remember when we first started out on this journey together that I would often ask you to take walks with me and you frequently told me no.  I remember how disappointed I would be because I looked forward to walking and talking with you and just enjoying the outdoors.

I am thankful today that after years of asking, you are now willing to go and have gone on walks with me. I'm thankful for it because it is not only good for our bodies but it is also good for our relationship.  Thank you for taking walks with me. I really appreciate it!

Day Eleven: The Word!

Honey, today I am especially thankful to God for your passion for His Word of Truth.  It has been a tremendous encouragement to me.  I am grateful to God for using you and your gift of teaching His Word to impact my life in a positive way.  You are truly a teacher of God's Word.  He has certainly gifted you to teach His Word of Truth to His people.  Thank you for teaching me about God's Word and also for guiding me in the areas of how to spot false teachings. I am a blessed woman first to have Jesus as my Lord and Savior and second to have a husband that knows His Word and teaches it to me.  Thank you!  I love you and appreciate you and God's gift in you to me and others!!!  Thank you for allowing the Lord to have His way in your life so that you would be a blessing to me and others.  God Bless You Beloved of God!

Day Ten: Community!

Well, today, I am thankful to God that you are someone who takes an active role in our community.  I think it is definitely fulfilling the commandment of loving your neighbor as yourself.  Thank you for being a man who cares about what is happening in our neighborhood and willingly take action to make things better and safer. I appreciate the fact that you don't turn a blind eye to crime and you are not afraid to do what is right in the face of danger.  I thank God for your courage in this area.
I love you! :-)  May the Lord, continue to lead you and guide you in this area Man of God and May you always follow His instructions and guidance. Lord, may your will be done continually in my hubby's life and keep him covered, strengthened and protected from hurt, harm, evil, and danger as he seeks first your Kingdom and Righteousness... in Jesus Name! Amen!

Day Nine: Ironing!

Hubby, not only do you know how to do your own laundry but you also iron your clothes when needed.  I'm so thankful that you know how to iron your clothing and you don't mind doing it at all.  As a matter of fact I remember times when you have ironed for me and I for you.  But I'm thankful that you do iron your clothes for the most part. 

I thank God for you and also for the fact that we have a system that works for us and we don't have to try to fit in anyone's mold.

Day Eight: Laundry!

Today, I'm thankful that my hubby knows how to do his own laundry.  He is very good at it!  He likes to do his own laundry and he also knows how to pack them away as well.  At one point and time I use to be annoyed that he did only his laundry and when we first started out I would do both of our laundry.  I felt that it was only fair that he would do all the laundry as well.  However, I am just now reminded that he did try to do both of our laundry a couple of times but I have a particular way that I like mine done and he has a particular way that he likes his done.  So to solve it all we both do our own laundry... Well, I do everything else except his clothing which he does.  So it works out just fine for the two of us.

Honey, thank you for sharing in the household duties by doing your laundry :-)
