Being A Cheerleader For The Home Team
I wanted to share something that I believe was a teaching tool for me!
When I look at my husband and how hard he works!
At Home and at his job!
I had this thought of how I could cheer him on in his life!
( Now, for the record, I do not have a good visual picture of a cheerleader in my head)
Scantly dressed and kicking her heels up, Ra Ra and all that!
But, rather a voice behind him saying things like!
Wow, you did a great job honey
I can't believe you got that all done, you work so diligently
You're so smart to be able to figure that out!
Oh your such a good provider!
(He provides you with protection and security)
And I do not mean he makes a ton of money,
But rather someone who cares about you!
I will give you a little something to think about;
If you are not willing to be your husbands cheerleader;
I can guarantee there is a woman who will be!!
Having someone to notice what you have done is universal.
Look, I can't fix all your problems,
But I can give you some advice as how doing it yourself
in
There are two teams:
The Home Team
&
The Worlds Team
You want your Husband to get all his Rah- Rah's from HOME!
Firstly, he picked you to be on his Team
(He married YOU)
So be a good Team Cheerleader!
------ ----- He's my man,
Your Man, needs You in his court!
Fight and cheer for him!
So, get yourpom

Were you ever a cheerleader?
Do you want your husband watching cheerleader at sports events?
Get my point?

This is a great idea! I know my husband could really use my cheerleading skills. He is not in his ideal job, even though he works hard, I can tell he feels discouraged sometimes. And yes, I was a cheerleader in junior high! Didn't like being lifted into the air (I was the littlest one), so I didn't continue into high school. You have so many beautiful thoughts Roxy. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder Roxy!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I try to always be my husband's biggest cheerleader. He does work so hard. He's a wonderful provider and he cares so much about me and our family. I try to make it a point of saying at least two or three times a day in different ways, how much he means to me. And you are exactly right. If we don't do it, there is a woman waiting in the wings to take our place.
ReplyDeleteBlessings always, Betsy
So true Roxy! I was a cheerleader in high school. Even though I no longer have a cheerleaders body, I still want to be the only cheerleader he looks at. lol! If we aren't behind our men, someone else will be!

So very true, Roxy. Got the voice but not the outfit....lol. This is a good post! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThank you Roxy for this timely post. My husband definitely could use my cheerleading.He had a heart attack a few months ago and needs encouragement to know he's taking the right steps to prevent a second one.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post Roxy and a great reminder. I try to be encouraging, patient and a good listener to my husband (who has a very stressful job). Sometimes I do better than others, but its so true what you say, that someone else would be willing to cheer him on if I don't do it. Wise words - thankyou and bless you. ~ Linda
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting these thoughts Roxy.
ReplyDeleteThere is so much truth in what you have said,
I enjoy your blog.

You are right Roxy, being an encourager in every way really makes a difference. A man needs to hear these things from his wife, for sure. Excellent advice :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right Roxy. There are many women out there who would be happy to be the next cheerleader of your man. Everywhere we go, I tell people that my husband takes very good care of me. And he does. He is a wonderful provider, a loving husband and a good father. We have been married a very long time, and I always tell him we grew up together. There are so few lasting things in this life. But marriage is a covenant that should be looked upon as a special gift from God. He created marriage. So it's a good thing, right? No, if you are married, it's the best thing.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! We'll be celebrating 49 years in September and I've definitely been my hubby's cheerleader, XOXO
ReplyDeleteIn a world that loves to husband bash, I'm so thankful that you are such an encouragement to husband cheer! I love finding new ways to let my husband know that I love and appreciate him.
