I was not happy about him falling back on this commitment; however I know I serve a God that offers me mercy every single day. I had no energy to try and change the situation so I decided to let it be with a simple reminder. I was also reminded that it is Sunday and it is football season. I truly believe he had forgotten that detail himself when he made the offer. I guess progress for a few days is better than no progress at all. It seems there is a lot of truth in the notion that when we take two steps forward we take one step backwards. Today I am honoring my husband with mercy for the steps backwards and acknowledgement for the steps forward because there is also truth to the notion that we have to take two steps backward to propel forward. I'm looking forward to the accelarated progress.
Wives of the world in what ways can you or do you honor your husband's with mercy? Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.
Blessings,
Rochelle
