Yourhusband should be your #leader. Your #hero. Your #partner in #everything. But let #theLordbeyourrock. In the beginning you may have to force time with the Lord. Your #heart will desire after your husband. But he is a #man. He may be a #wonderfulman. But there will be problems that come up that he can’t solve immediately. You will get hurt at times. You will feel lonely at times. You will feel overwhelmed at times. You will feel like #nagging, #whining, #hempguidetohealthyeating #reminding, #telling him all your #worries, #doubts, maybe even pointing out his #sins or #failures. But if we have cultivated a habit of bringing all of our cares and worries and concerns and first giving them to #theLord, we will keep the Lord in his rightful place, and give a much better #wife to our husband.
I’m not saying hold your heart back from your husband. You are two that have become one. You are joined spirit, soul, and body.. But you are meant, in Christ, to “cast all your cares on HIM,” #Him, meaning #Christ. If you bring your worries, doubts, concerns, to the #Lord first – you will save your #marriage many troubles, and give #God much #glory as you see #him work things out and keep your #husband in his rightful spot, as #2 in your heart.
Psalm 62 says, “my soul finds rest in God alone … my expectation is from Him.” If your expectation to solve every situation that comes up in your marriage rests with your husband, you will quickly be discouraged. That’s not fair to your husband. It’s not how God intended it. And we will quickly be disappointed. But if you continue to cultivate that habit, to bring things first to the Lord, to hand things over to Him, to find rest in Him, to look to Him with expectation to solve problems and difficult situations… Then, everything stays in its rightful place. Maybe you get peace. Maybe the Lord fixes the situation without you saying a word (like Sarah, in 1 Peter 3:1). Maybe the Lord says, “talk to your husband about this.” Maybe the Lord says, “wait, not yet”. And so many problems are solved because you kept God first and held Him as your rock, instead of your husband.
With #love in #Christ
