The Love Dare, week 4
Sweet husband, you know the way this works. Thanks for not reading my post.
I don't mind fixing a candlelight supper for the two of us. I enjoy buying him a gift to let him know I'm thinking about him. I find calling him during his day to see if he needs me to do anything for him very pleasant.
It's the dares that focus on behavior and attitude... What's up with that? Y'all know there's nothing wrong with me. Okay, there are a couple of things I could change.
It. Is. Hard.
Difficult or not, here's what I know, I want to stay married. Forever. And ever. Marriage is not a feeling. It is a decision. Husbands and wives disagree. They have real problems. Now, y'all I'm married to a good man. As good as he is, sometimes he gets on my nerves. I'm sure I return the favor to him occasionally.
I come from a divorced home. It stinks, hugely. Divorced people argue just as much as married people. They have real problems. They even have extra real problems called "ex" and "step" (gasp). And they sometimes get on each others nerves.
Hmmm.
"Let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God." 1 John 4:7
"How blessed is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding." Proverbs 3:13
"The Lord will continually guide you, and satisfy your desire." Isaiah 58:11
I'm resolute in that I will choose to love him. I will finish this dare. Even if it is hard. After all, the best things in life usually are.

Thank you for sharing about the Love Dare Book.
I think no matter what our situation is when it comes to marriage whether we come from Broken Homes where the Marriages ended in Divorce or whether the Home Life and Marriage life was great We could all still use some good wholesome Work from God on our Marriages.
God Bless and Merry Christmas .
@CAGmomof2 - So true! Thanks for reading! May your family have a blessed Christmas!
