Welcome to my Blog

I Will Honor My Husband blog site began as a wife's journey to love, honor and cherish her husband everyday for one full year in 2011. The experience was so awesome that I am continuing the journey. As the Lord guides me I will continue to post about how I am honoring my husband on at least a weekly basis. This blog is for me and other wives to learn how to be more intentional in demonstrating our love, honor and respect for our husbands in a way that matters to them most. Last year it was a challenge and a goal to make it a habit, this year I hope to realize the habit as a way of life. I welcome, encourage and invite you to - Join the Movement! and let the world know you honor your husband.

My prayer is that marriages and lives will be changed across the globe by the expression of "One Year of Love". Please send me a picture of you and your husband so the world will know you have joined the movement.

Day 101 Honoring My Husband By Prioritizing

Wow!  I am absolutely amazed at how fast the year is moving.  We are already one quarter of the way through the year and I feel like it was just yesterday we were celebrating the New Year.  As I headed into day 101 I really was at a standstill.  I typically go about my day and listen to the Lord and watch how he works or raises moments of inspiration.  Today was a day of work, work, and more work and I hardly lifted my head.  I wanted to attend an event at church and my choice was spend 5 - 6 hours attending the event or finish my client work and school paper.  I chose the latter because I really would like to spend this weekend not focusing on work but enjoying time with my husband.

As I began to write my blog today, I said Lord I was crazy busy today, help me see how I honored my husband according to your way.  His reply, prioritization, and that is exactly what I did.  I had sat down, made the list of things I needed to do, prioritized them by using the old Covey method of A, B, & C and went from there.  It worked pretty well except I did not get everything I would have liked completed.  In any event, today I honored my husband by prioritizing so we can have a good weekend whatever we choose to do. 

Wives of the world in what ways do you honor your husband by prioritizing?  How do you determine what's critical and what's not?  Do you focus on the little urgent things or the big important things during your day?  Intentional or not, we prioritize everyday by the choices we make.  How can you honor your husband by prioritizing today?  Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.

Blessings,

Rochelle
