Wife After God

I have been spending the past few weeks working on how to be a better wife - Godly Wife.   I have been reading the book:  Wife After God by The Unveiled Wife.  It's a 30 day devotional book.    It's drawing me closer to God and my husband, Alex.  


I have been learning that my spouse is a gift, the ministry of reconciliation, my need for companionship and serving my husband.   There are many interesting topics and quite eye opening.   Even though we have been married for 9 years, I am still striving to be a good wife.    Especially having Max in our lives we are learning EVERYDAY!   When I was pregnant with Max we involved ourselves in marriage courses and that truly brought us closer.  Prepared us for parenthood.  Here we are 13 months later and I can honestly say it's been challenging.  We've done our best at date nights, but the thoughts of always asking someone to babysit can be daunting.  So, what we have been doing is making time at HOME to have date nights.   Doesn't cost us much and we don't have to worry about a babysitter.    Last night, we came home from bootcamp, prepped our meals and got Max to bed by 9pm. WHEW!    But we were able to relax, watch a movie, holding hands and just enjoy QUALITY TIME!   It was like old times, snuggled up and not being interrupted by Max.   It might sound selfish but it's really not.   Our marriage is VERY important to us.  If we are not right then how are we going to be examples to Max?   It's our job to be sure that he is raised in a Christian home where he sees that Mommy loves Daddy and Daddy loves Mommy.  I've personally come from a broken home so I know what it's like to not have both parents in the home.  Marriages today are not what they used to be.   There is no more love, respect and communication. Divorce has become the new normal.  Now I don't know about you but for me personally I want Max to look back and be PROUD of us.   Proud that we shown him what marriage is about.  Proud that we kept God centered.   Proud that we worked towards our marriage.   

To us, marriage is not about sacrifices....it's about team work!   Putting our energy into what we believe.  Granted, we can agree to disagree but that is where love and respect play in.   Marriage can and is a beautiful journey.  Having a partner that encourages you daily, striving to reach goals and creating memories as a family.   Granted, it is not peaches and cream and we have had our fair share of arguments/fights over the years.  By the grace of God we were able to restore our marriage.  I truly believed that God SAVED us.   

So, having moments like we did last night really makes me appreciate my marriage more.   There does not need to be fancy dinners, diamond rings and extravagant trips - nothing personal against that.  But those are just things.   Marriage to me is about loving one another, holding hands, praying for/with each other, creating memories and dreaming together.   

Here's a perfect example: 



You are a wife, committed to your husband.  No longer operating in selfishness, you now seek to serve, respect and love your husband.  Your marriage will give ample opportunity to grow and mature.  The changes you will experience through the different seasons of marriage will lead you to refinement if you intentionally choose to accept marriage as a way for God to transform you.  The choice to embrace God's ways will always be up to you and it will always begin by submitting yourself to Him.   - Wife After God

No matter where you are in your marriage, continue to work on it.  Don't get comfortable.  Grow together.  Pray for your husband.  Never talk bad about him.  Cook him dinner.  Watch his favorite show (Even though you don't want too).   Hold hands when driving.  Allow him to tell you you're beautiful and say THANK YOU.  Take marriage courses.  Never FALL out of LOVE.  

God Bless you and your marriage.

For 2years i felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. i tried to be strong just for the kids but i could not control the pains that torments my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because i was really in love with my husband. Every day and night i think of him and always wish he would come back to me, until one day i met an old friend of mine that was also in a situation like this but hers was her ex-boyfriend who she had an unwanted pregnancy for and he refused to take responsibility and dumped her.she told me that MINE was a small case and that i shouldn't worry about it at all so i asked her what was the solutions to my problems and she gave me this great mans phone number and his contact email address drfaraspelltemple@gmail.com i was doubting if this man was the solution, so contacted this great man and he told me what to do and I did them all, he told me to wait for just two day and that my husband will come crawling on his kneels just for forgiveness so i faithfully did what this great man asked me to do and for sure immediately after two days i heard a knock on the door, in a great surprise i saw him begging on his kneels and i was speechless, when he saw me, all he did was crying and asking me for forgiveness, from that day, all the pains and sorrows in my heart flew away,since then i and my husband and our lovely kids are happy family thats why I want to say a big thank you to DR FARA the Great doctor This great man made me to understand that there's no problem on earth that has no solution so please if you know that you have this same problem.
