The Married Woman's Proclamation

I thought it might be a few women out there who needed this for their own marriages, because I sure did!

The Married Woman's Proclamation

Lord, I thank you for my husband, and I cherish the years that we have had together.  Bless his life abundantly.  Bless the work of his hands, his labor for us and his children.  I thank You for all of his good qualities.  He has been a good husband, a good father, and a good provider.

Show me the ways to let him know how much I appreciate him.  Father, bless our marriage.  May my husband treat me with respect, loving me as Christ loved the church.  As a wife, may I have more worth than rubies to my husband, bringing him good and not harm all the days of our lives.  Thank You for this man who is my life partner.  Help me to express how much I revere and trust him.

Father, teach me how to pray more efficiently for him.  May he walk in health, having his strength renewed as an eagle.  May You, Father, pour out Your blessing on him and our relationship together.  May we together bless Your name, and may You always come first in our lives.  I proclaim this in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen

--Diana Hagee, The King's Daughter

2 Years!

The Mister and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary yesterday!  I can't believe that it's been 2 years already....it went really fast ;)  He really is my best friend and the best husband that a woman could ever ask for!  We started dating in 2004, got engaged in 2006, and were married in 2008.  Just the idea that I've spent 6 years of my life hanging out with this guy is just beyond me! ha!  If you would have told me in 2004 that in 2010 I would be married... and for 2 years I would have thought you were crazy!  It's amazing how God's plan is so much bigger and better than yours ;)  We're living proof of that!

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."  Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
  

Happy Anniversary Mister...."and we lived happily ever after"!

Road to Recovery!

I don't really know why I stopped posting....I think that the whole injury thing caught me so off guard. I've been told that when people go through things they tend to hide or keep to themselves when in actuality that's when you need to be around positive people the most. In this situation, I haven't had time to hide....I just haven't been as well connected as I had been before.

Before we got married people told us that you are never prepared for what will come your way, but just be prepared to go through it together. That is definitely where we are...we're almost 9 months deep into the marriage it's been quite an experience. We've had a lot of fun together, no doubt....but football is something that you can never prepare yourself for. The Snickers commercials say "life comes at you fast"......I understand the true meaning of that phrase after these last few months.

Since October, Mister has had 5 doctors and 2 procedures done to his thigh to heal what was originally deemed as just "a bad thigh bruise". Now, that he's a free agent, it's imperative that he's completely healed and back in shape. So I've been determined to walk with him through this entire process. He's officially healed and working toward being back in shape. I'm happy that he's healed, I'm happy that he's happy, and I'll be happier once he's signed!

We have grown so much in 9 months.....not just in our relationship, but also in our prayer lives and our social lives. Before we were home bodies with the exception of date night....but our Bible Study was exceptional. You talk about a shoulder to cry on, a friend to call, and smile when you need one. So through this "thigh bruise" we have found friends and also some things in each other that we didn't know where there. Can't wait for the next 9 months!
