Lately for devotions I've been reading through 1 John, because I want to better understand God's love. This morning I came across this verse:
Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. 1 John 3:18
Now, I'm not suggesting you boycott Valentine's Day. Hearing spoken and written affirmations of love is so important. But I would like to share with you two resources you can use to love your husband through your actions as well.
The first is The Generous Wife daily e-mails. I'm not a fan of e-mail lists, and this is the only one I've signed up for, because it's excellent. Every day you receive a short e-mail idea on how to love your husband and build your marriage. The ideas are incredibly practical, come from a Christian perspective, and often get me thinking about their message throughout the day. They're a way to remind yourself to spend time building your marriage each day. If you'd like to subscribe, go here.
The other resource is an excellent Christian intimacy site called The Marriage Bed, which is hosted by Paul and Lori, a husband and wife team. (And Lori is the author of The Generous Wife e-mails, too!) We've spent a lot of time on their forums, where you can find answers to questions, inspiration, and ideas to make life a little more creative and exciting. If you're a wife wanting to bless your husband sexually, or an engaged couple wanting to prepare for what's ahead, I highly recommend these forums. But please--if you're not married or engaged, wait till you are, since the site's focus is on married intimacy.
May your love for your husband grow stronger this year, and may the Lord bless your marriage richly!
