Just Between Us Men
We crave companionship,
devotion
and friendship
in our marriages,
don’t we, men?
Here are some thoughts to ponder.
I frequently quote Howard Hendricks’ adage
“When you have half an hour to read, read fifteen and think fifteen.
You’ll get more out of it.”
This article is good for me; I’ve read it several times and will again.
Read – and think.
Then look for your next chance to act on what you find here.
I needed this today, Phil. I’ve been feeling like me and my wife just haven’t been able to be together even when we’re together; just as the article stated. Time is indeed fleeting and, with God’s help, we will heed the advice. In fact, I’m going to call her now, tell her how much I miss her and make a date.
God bless you,
David.
Glad it found a responsive chord in your heart too, David; it’s easy for us to get going through life so fast we trip over our own momentum, isn’t it?
Good move – acting on something you observe! I hope it’s a great date!!
Phil—
You know what they say about good intentions…I called her and she reminded me of a Men’s Group commitment I had made. See…so busy I didn’t know what day it was!
But, we are going to have some “just us” time this weekend.
Blessings,
David.
I second grits thoughts…It’s amazing how wrapped up with everything I can be and then the day comes and goes and I haven;t had a real talk with my wife. I am usually ok with this, but to me the hardest thing is praying with my wife consistently.
Don’t know why I haven’t done it yet cus i read you everyday, but i added you to my links
Thanks, men.
It’s true what they say – “the important things get done – and what we do indicate what’s important”
Thanks for adding me in, klampert – looking forward to encouraging each other in the faith; society has the current flowing the other way.
