How Does He Put Up With Me?

Many times I must confess I have often asked myself the question "How does he put up with me " I am thankful that he does! May this challenge you as it did me for I have walked in this!

Up all hours of the night praying, writing, baking, doing chores, that should have been done earlier. Did not iron his clothes on time and somtimes the dinner is not on time either. You know ladies this imbalance could drive a husband up the wall, how does he put up with me ? There I just told a little on myself, but what about you as a wife ? Ask yourself this question, how does he put up with me ? Yes you! Think about it as valentine is fast approaching, also valentine comes around only once a year! What kind of wife are you ? Please take this quiz it is not in any particular order.                                    

(1) Do you love him unconditionally ?

(2) When he says A do you say B ?

(3) Are you still slamming doors and breaking dishes ?

(4) Do you hide from him things that you do ?

(5) Are you cooking, washing, and cleaning..oh yes are you ironing?

(6) Are you pouting and always angry at him..are you sleeping on the far side of the bed ?

(7) Do you have unforgiveness in your heart, and have become miserable ?

(8) Does your heart still skip a beat when you hear his voice ?

(9) Do you still kiss him good night and tell him each day that you love him ?

(10) Are you still praying fervently for him ?

Ladies these are just a few of the many questions we can ask ourselves.. Can I be real with you ladies ? It is time to grow up and understand that your husband's love far surpasses valentine's day. It is okay if he did not order any flowers for you or no chocolate  and showered you with gifts, get this he still loves you! Don't get mad ladies didn't you just take the quiz ? Real love is unconditional, "How does he then put up with me ? " because he loves you even though you are falling short in mamy vital areas. Yes he is still with you because he loves and cares for you, so make this valentine day a new beginning in your relationship by being truthful with yourself (me too)  prioritize and be passionate, loving, and kind to your husband. Forgive him if he has done you wrong. Let by gone be by gone and start a fresh today, let the love of Christ be seen in you today! Stop rowing and being miserable. Truly you will regain all that you thought was lost, pray for your husband  even more fervently he is worth praying for. Remember the two shall become one. Feel his pain, share in his joy comfort and encourage him. Stop sleeping on the far side of him, and begin tonight to cuddle up close to him. Make it a habit to grease his scalp and brush his hair. When was the last time you clipped his finger nails and did his toe nails also ? Do not send him to the manicurist, you do it! Watch football and basket ball with him and just look at the screen even though you may not understand the game. Soon you will get it, and guess what you too will enjoy the game. This is only a beginning of a beautiful, healthy, and loving relationship. Soon you nor I will ask the question, how does he put up with me ? May this valentine's day be a new beginning and a memorable one for you and your beloved...and the two shall be one!!!!!

Obviously, I am not a woman but my question would be, "What does he do for you?" Thank you for sharing, Margaret. Love, peace, and blessings to you,
