"Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4
TODAY'S DARE:
Ask yourself what your mate would want if it was obtainable. Commit this to prayer, and start mapping out a plan for meeting some (if not all) of their desires, to whatever level you possibly can.
MY REFLECTION:

MY REFLECTION:
I have to confess, I met up with this challenge with resistance. As I was reading the part about what a husband could do for his wife, I immediately was like, "Why isn't my husband doing these things for me?" I think if we were all honest with ourselves most of us would admit that we would be willing to do so much more for our spouse if only they would do some for us. Well, the truth of that way of thinking is selfish (I know it stinks). My husband and I used to talk about our goals, dreams, desires and wants all the time. Over the years we've settled into the routine of "one days". Today's economy for most of us doesn't allow much wiggle room for extras. BUT... not everything costs money. I want to rediscover what my husbands dreams are. I know that a lot of mine have changed over the years, I'm sure some of his has changed as well. I want my husband to know that his dreams are a priority to me. Of course I want my dreams to be a priority to him as well... maybe all it takes is me making the first move!!
