Loving Your Wife: Day 7
Task: Do a 30 minute sweep of the house (just go through and straighten everything up). Reasoning: Remember those love languages I mentioned yesterday. Well, another one of those is Acts of Service. This is a short (seriously, set your timer for 30 minutes) opportunity to just go through and pick up the house. My recommendation…

Encourage One Another
Ex-hort: verb – strongly encourage or urge (someone) to do something. Exhort is one of those interesting words we find in Scripture. We read it regularly, but almost never use it. Seriously, when was the last time you used the word “exhort” in a conversation? Probably around the last time you used the word “behold.” Yet, when…

Perfect Through Suffering
What comes to mind for you when you see the word, “Suffering?” Typical responses might be Pain, Hurt, Heartache, Death, and Grief.

Loving Your Wife: Day 3
Task: Make her breakfast in bed Reasoning: Breakfast in bed is one of those treats that make most wives feel loved and appreciated. It doesn’t have to be extravagant, but it probably shouldn’t be a bowl of cereal either (unless she just loves her some cereal)! So get to work making her something delicious! Oh, yeah,…

Loving Your Wife: Day 2
Task: BIG ONE – Clean the Bathrooms (or at least make sure they get done without her help)! Reasoning: My guess is that bathroom cleaning often belongs to your wife. Well, today you get to take that burden off her hands. Whether you are the one doing the work, you have the kids help you,…

Loving Your Wife: Day 1
Task: Write her a love letter. (Bonus: If you can get to her workplace and leave it under the windshield wiper for her to find after work, I’m thinking she’ll love it.) Reasoning: When was the last time you wrote a love letter to your wife? Whether it was yesterday or yesteryear, this is a…
