Day 104 Honoring My Husband With Covering

Today Bryan and I embarked on our mini vacation.  It was a beautiful ride through the countryside of Virginia.  Bryan knows the area pretty well so we took the back roads, which was just beautiful.  Bryan reminded me that he had gotten a ticket in Virginia last year and although he paid the ticket they added additional fees that he did not pay which meant he probably should not be drivng in Virginia.  We wanted to make sure our weekend was not hijacked by an over zealous officer trying to make a name for himself.  So this meant I had to drive once we crossed the state line; which of course I was not crazy about, but I also did not want my weekend ruined. 

All that being said, I honored my husband today with a covering by having his back while we are enjoyed Virginia.  Typically when we go away Bryan does all the driving and I am able to read, crochet, sleep or just enjoy his company and conversation.  I truly believe this role reversal was God's plan. Bryan was the one really wanting to take a vacation and we had considered going to another state.  I realized today that had that happened he would have done all the driving and not have gotten the opportunity to relax as he did today.  It was my pleasure and honor to afford him the opportunity to truly relax, read, sleep and simply enjoy my company while I honored him with a covering. 

I learn more and more each day that absolutely nothing is a coincidence.  When the Lord says you need something and you speak it, he surely will make a way for it to be realized which is exactly what he did for Bryan this weekend.  He also taught me a very valuable lesson to ensure we both have the opportunity to fully relax on vacation so in the future I will do a much better job of sharing this load.

Wives of the world in what way do you or can you honor your husband with a covering?  Does your husband always drive you around while on vacation or at home?  Is this a task that is shared or is it more his responsibility?  Are there other tasks that you can share with him to cover his back?  Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear and learn from you.

Blessings,

Rochelle
