Pray For Your Husband

Recently I was linked to a blog with a list of reasons why the wives who were polled respect their husbands. I thought it would be interesting for you to read through and consider your own husband's strengths. As you read through this list, don't use it as an instrument against which to measure how respect worthy your husband is, rather see your husband in the list. Ask yourself today, what are the top reasons I respect my man. In followup, please share those thoughts and affirmations with your husband. You'd be surprised how one piece of affirmation from you, his best friend, can put the wind back into his sails.
         "Father, thank you for my husband. Wash me with the water of your Word that I may respect him in all seasons to praise of your glory. In Jesus name, Amen."
