Where have I been? Why haven't I written. I have been asking myself that too. The last few weeks have been weird. I mean I just feel things are changing. I guess I still don't do well with change. I mean I like it but it makes me all weird at first. It makes me distracted and contemplative. My mistake though is not going to God with it. I took this challenge seriously, yet if I am really serious about it. I will commit to consistently coming to Christ in prayer and listening to His leading. Ahhh... Why do I forget this part so many times. I just continue to think I can do it on my own. Guess what it never works! Haha... or at least it doesn't work for long.
I have been trying to serve my husband more with my acts of service since that is how he receives love, yet God is trying to grow me in this area when I don't feel like I did enough or did things good enough. Yes I struggle with this too and I'm sure I'm not the only one. That is one of my biggest insecurities and as I'm writing this I'm realizing that this is why God put me with my husband who receives love this way and put me with him to teach him a language unlike his, words of affirmation. We have become much better at loving each other in these ways that are foreign to us yet have a long way to go.
If you haven't read this book you should, "The 5 Love Languages" Its great!
I know my thoughts have been all over the place tonight. Sorry! :)
So goal for this week. Be with God more and write more.
