For Women Only!
Okay so I read this quote the other day and it was so great that I wanted to share it with you! Of course I will have to comment also!
" I find it amazing that a woman would marry a man and then complain because he continues to act like one"! - Created to be His Help Meet, Debi Pearl
I love this statement! Because it is so true! We begin at a young age dreaming of the man we are going to marry. What will he look like? What will he do? What will his name be? What will our kids look like? What will I wear on my wedding day?! Then we begin the search for the perfect man. We may search long and hard or it may be a short and sweet search. When we find the perfect man, we are overjoyed! Life will begin now!
A short time into the marriage, reality hits! ( the time will be different for everyone!) He is not what I expected! I thought he was the perfect man and now I found out he is just a man?
EXACTLY!!!! He is a man. The man you dreamed of your entire life so quit your complaining! I do get tired of wives who want their husbands to be more like a woman, sharing emotions, being touchy feely, domestic, able to multi-task, care about colors and decorating. OR WHATEVER! You married a man and that is what he is.
Celebrate today the man God created and gave to you!

AMEN!!! God created man and woman DIFFERENTLY ... for each other ... to compliment each other. We attended the "Celebrate Your Marriage" conference a few years ago when the program was focusing on men leading and women submitting. It was PERFECT TIMING for our marriage! (of course, because the Lord set it up that way!) Women - respect your man ... and Men - love your woman! When you get that right, things run pretty smoothly. But you can't do it in your own strength ... you will fail miserably! But if you rely on the LORD, He will provide you with the patience to love and respect. I am so thankful that I don't have to be in control of everything anymore ... the LORD is in control ... and it is my husband's role to lead ... PRAISE the LORD that He has encouraged my husband to do so, AND He has also helped me trust him ... because ultimately we must trust Him!
When my husband and I married, we determined that we could not love each other enough. We decided to ask God to love through us. So when we are not feeling so loving, we put it in God's hands. When we are feeling loving, we thank God for our relationship. I am so thankful he brought us together!
