Wives 30-Day Prayer Challenge - Day 3


Peace be still! Do you have peace in your home? In your relationship? Or do you feel like your marriage is in PEICES?

There are times when I feel so fractured as a wife. Not that I am incompete, but perhaps....chipped might be  a better word. When things are not put together in a right way it disturbs the peace of a relationship. The opposite of peace is unrest or war. Soldiers are needed in a warfare. Women, we are soldiers on our homes and our battleground is when our feet hit the floor (or before!).

In the word of God I am reminded that the weapons of this warfare are not carnal (Ephesians 6), but are supernatural. Not only that, but the Prince of PEACE has already won this battle for us! We need to proclaim, decree and declare the peace that has already been given.

Here are some prayer points that I am praying over my husband today:

1. Peace of mind
2. Peaceful spirit
3. Peaceful sleep
4. Peace in decision-making
5. Financial peace
6. Peaceful parenting
7. Peace in his physical body

Here is the scope for today: http://katch.me/NONSuperwoman/v/5bf18a56-b26a-383a-bd3c-1a2d10834019

What ignoring Social Media did to my marriage

Image
I quit social media for a month. It had some unexpected consequences and delightful rewards.

Consequences:

We didn't know what was going on. When I stopped checking facebook, instagram, twitter and snapchat, I lost communication with several hundreds of people. I suddenly realized that I missed my online friends. Some of our mutual marriage friends didn't even realize that we were silent online. I also realized who some of my real friends really were too.

We realized that we missed capturing daily moments through pictures and sharing in real time. Life slowed down a bit which was great for Maurice, but less adventurous for me. I actually like a faster pace of life.

Rewards:

We used the phone more and sent cards. My real friends actually missed me before 31 days were up. Deaths, weddings and funerals happened and instead of sending a post, we sent cards.

Those closest to us also reached out "just because". Real friends don't need a reason.

We had so much more time…

Transplanting Emotions

Image
Do not worry about tomorrow. Do not be anxious about anything. One day at a time. These are the things that we read in the Bible about worry. As we have been preparing for this bone marrow transplant, we have experienced possibly every single emotion! A little bit of fear, sadness, excitement, anxiety and joy. It is all happening - some of them simultaneously. Nothing rocks your life quite like the expectation of hope that a transplant brings, along with the lack of control and concern that it may not actually be all you hoped.

As I sat in the apartment that I was blessed to have close to the hospital, I am struck with the thought that I was also in need of a transplant, like my husband. His is physical, but mine is emotional. All of the people in this building are here because they are either a transplant patient or a transplant patient's caregiver. What a blessing to make such a place available! I have learned even more about transplants lately as you can imagine.
A transplant of…
