50 Ways to Love Him!

So I am going through my Facebook timeline as per usual, when I come across an interesting post from The Time-Warp Wife, which is a friend of Club31Women.

So with eager interest, I clicked on it and began to read. She talks about this one verse from the bible in Song Of Solomon. This is what it reads:

"For I've found him whom my soul loves" - Song of Solomon (3:4)

And then she goes on about how it truly just means to love your spouse with passion and from the soul. I love this because it reminds us of the simplicity of god's hope for us and our relationships. Specifically, for us women. Don't take your men for granted ladies, friends, family and every other women out there. Remember that men are much different than us and need different things. My husband used to hate when I wasn't working because he felt like he did all the "work." Now, I know he is not proud of those hasty feelings and he has gotten much better with this. However, when I look back at those times of struggle in our marriage and my unemployment, I also ask myself, what else could I have done to show him I was working? Well...that's where this list comes in. Now I understand, it wasn't for me to throw an extra load of laundry in that day, or to walk to every business on the street with 2 kids in tow filling out applications everyday...it was that extra kiss goodnight, or that long reach to his face to say "i love you" randomly in the doorway, or that special night dinner where we put the kids to bed early and eat later to enjoy each other, the candlelight, and our love.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have related those things as work in the eyes of my husband, unless it wasn't for God.

So ladies, the next time your husband is whining about the dishes not being done, or house being extra messy that day because the kids were on overload, don't react to harshly. Most likely he just had a hard day himself at work and just wants a little something "extra." So sit down behind him after he throws his tv show on and give him a massage, or put the kids to bed early and watch an old movie together.
