How to be a Husband, Lover...
Well, it is pretty easy; The only requirement is dying to self!
And consider the cost;
Think not more highly of yourself than you ought!
Prefer Your Husband over everyone else...
Keep your vows on your door-post of your heart!
Renew your vows to him daily in word and need;
(I am not talking about repeating them, but rather living them)
Start each new day with a plan and conviction
Read the WORD
Doing something just for HIM
Dust his desk
Bake his favorite meal or dessert.
Plan a picnic at a park or in your backyard!
Write him a love note:
Tell him he is handsome
Kiss him and hold his hand often!
Ask his advice and use it...
Make sure he has clean clothes
Keep a few shirts and pants pressed
(How your Husband looks, reflects a good wife)
He may be standing at the city gates...
~Please smell wonderful for him
Wear your hair for him
Dress for him~
Watch your mouth!!
You can look sweet and talk like a truck driver
Tell him thank you often
Keep your words kind
(May the law of kindness be upon your lips)
If you are exhausted tell him and ask him to hold you!!
When he comes home, tell him you are so glad he is home.
Give him a few minutes to unwind after his day!
Never tell him over the phone while he is at work,
(How terrible your day is, or what has gone wrong)
Being a Husband, lover is a joy if you will invest and impart
Into him and his life; as there are returns here and in the
Heavens!!
Remember Jesus came to serve us!
Shall we not serve our Husbands, and love them?
Share some of the things that you might do that makes YOU
A Husband, lover!?...
The aged women... teach the young women to be sober,
Titus 2:3-5
Make it and aim to teach others how to love their own Husbands!
This picture was taken at our renewing of our wedding vows last year!
Every morning I make a cup of coffee for my husband and as I put the cream and sugar into the cup, I pray over it. I have done this for years.
ReplyDeleteI have never told him about his cup of love.
