Have your kids called you out? Mine have. Check out the killer husband advice my 13-year old gave me.
Game Plan:
“A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding, and she could find no cure. Coming up behind Jesus, she touched the fringe of his robe. Immediately, the bleeding stopped.
“Who touched me?” Jesus asked.
Everyone denied it, and Peter said, “Master, this whole crowd is pressing up against you.”
But Jesus said, “Someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me.” When the woman realized that she could not stay hidden, she began to tremble and fell to her knees in front of him. The whole crowd heard her explain why she had touched him and that she had been immediately healed. “Daughter,” he said to her, “your faith has made you well. Go in peace.” Luke 8:43-48, NLT
Time Out:
Like me, have you missed some moments to really notice and hear your wife? Those are missed opportunities to value, validate and affirm her. To love her.
Jesus was mega tuned-in to people. He could tell when someone touched his robe and healing power flowed from Him. You and I are not Jesus, but He wants us to be like Him, and He gave us His Spirit. Noticing, hearing and loving well takes caring. It takes focus. It takes a desire to cherish.
Like me, have you missed some moments to really notice and hear your wife? Those are missed opportunities to value, validate and affirm her. To love her.
Go Deep:
Ask God to help you pay attention, focus and really listen to your wife… and your kids. Give yourself a goal to hear, validate, and cherish the ones you love. Jesus noticed every need and every nuance. Imagine what it will mean to notice and cherish her. Seize your opportunities.
