When Bryan arrived home it was late but I knew he had not eaten. I had not cooked dinner because he asked me to meet him somewhere and I did not have the time to cook dinner beforehand. I returned home first so when he arrived I asked if he wanted dinner. I was tired but also knew he was probably hungry so I proceeded to fix him a quick, easy but tasty summer dinner. The Lord reminded me that I had honored my husband. I do this so often I had forgotten that this act of service is also honoring him.
Now that I reflect upon it, he offered to make dinner for himself but I said no, I will take care of it. In that moment I can recall thinking he has been working all day and this is the least I could do for my husband is make sure he is fed well since I had not prepared dinner. I guess I can feel good that this is one area where I do not have to think about honoring him because it comes so natural to me. Today I honored my husband with good service.
I love for Bryan to take me to dinner. When he does I love and reward good service; however I feel the service he receives at home should always far exceed any service he gets outside the home by a stranger. Honoring my husband with good service is my honor.
Wives of the world how do or can you honor your husband's with good service? Does he get better service at a restaurant than he does at home? Do you feel it is an honor for you to be of good service to your husband? How can you honor him today with good service? Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.
Blessings,
Rochelle
