What makes your heart sing? Jesus

Who brings a smile to your face? Jesus

Who do you love to praise? Jesus
He's working all things together for our good!

August 3

After I phased through the frustration of google getting in my business regarding what I can send, I had the same thought that a friend emailed last night. God is up to good, by having me post the encouraging your husband challenge by Revive Our Hearts on this blog.  Maybe there are some of you who read these weekday entries of devotion who need some fine tuning in your marriage too.

I'm under daily conviction doing this 30 day study.

So, I'll back up and post Day 1.  You can order the journal at the revive our hearts.

30-Day Husband Encouragement Challenge

We're so glad you've decided to accept the "30-Day Encouragement Challenge" to encourage your husband! Your decision means that you truly want to be a blessing in your home. This challenge will also result in spiritual growth in your own life.

We'd like to encourage you to keep track of what God does in your marriage over this next month. We hope you'll take time to share what God does in your home as you bless and encourage your spouse.

Day One

"The heart of her husband safely trusts her; so he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil all the days of her life."(Prov. 31:11-12)

To refresh your memory, here's the 30-Day Encouragement Challenge for the next 30 days:

• ·  You can't say anything negative about your husband . . . to your husband . . . or to anyone else, about your husband.
• ·  Say something that you admire or appreciate about your husband . . . to your husband . . . and to someone else, about your husband!

To help you get started, have you ever thanked your husband for choosing you above all other women? He found you attractive as a person, and appreciated you. Though many circumstances in your marriage may have changed, let your husband know that you are glad God led you together, and that you want to be a blessing to him for the rest of your marriage. Let him know that he can trust you to be in his corner.

One of the best opportunities to express your gratitude is first thing in the morning. How do you greet your husband each morning? Is he confident in your love? Give him a "wake up call" that he'll never forget—a big "I love you" and an "I'm so glad I'm your wife!"

Journaling Thought:Write down some reasons you are thankful for your husband.
