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 235 Honoring My Husband With Agreement

Now that's a cool idea!
Today Bryan and I had an interesting conversation about our upcoming vacation.  I really want to go  someplace warm and veg out for several days and he just wants to get away from home.  We booked a week in Mexico so I am already packed mentally.  I was a little surprised that he agreed to go away for the Thanksgiving holiday, it is his favorite holiday.  Nonetheless we have it booked and were speaking about how much time we would like to spend there.  Then I asked the dreaded question, are you sure you want to go away for Thanksgiving?  I am totally okay with it but felt he was having reservations and I was correct, he was having some internal turmoil about it.

We pondered about the best time to leave since we have some flexibility, should we go the day after or that weekend.  Later Bryan decided he had a brilliant idea.  We have several time share properties and he suggested that we book several rooms at one of them and invite both of our families.  My immediate thought was, that sounds like a great idea and then I realized that will not be the vacation I had in mind but it will definitely be one that I will enjoy.  Today I am honoring my husband with agreement.  We will be able to spend time with both our families, be away from home and enjoy the holidays.  We have not yet determined which day we will leave for our beach bash but we did commit to ensuring we do.  Today I honored my husband with agreement so we can enjoy our holiday with family and get away from the craziness of normal life. 

Wives of the world in what ways can you honor your husband with an agreement when he has a change of heart?  Is there anything you are pondering upon that is different than what you were anticipating but will still meet the ultimate need of you both?  How can you honor your husband with agreement today?

Blessings,
