COT: If you don’t believe God has a sense of humor, get married. Our greatest earthly covenant is our marriage to our M. We are 2 totally opposite beings and we are to become “one flesh”. Us men tend to lean to a transactional relationship as our primary love language tends to be physical contact. Yet our M’s primary love language tends to be quality time. Obviously there is a disconnect…read the Uncommen blog I shared for more details on how we lean toward transaction (if I do the dishes I will get ___; come on you know you’re guilty) and our M leans towards needing us to hear her and be present- not on our phones, not working, and not expecting something else of her.

Love her deeper than a transaction!

Aye!

CoT: What is the most important step a person can take?

“The ancient code of the Knights Radiant says ‘journey before destination.’ Some may call it a simple platitude, but it is far more. A journey will have pain and failure. It is not only the steps forward that we must accept. It is the stumbles. The trials. The knowledge that we will fail. That we will hurt those around us.

But if we stop, if we accept the person we are when we fall, the journey ends. That failure becomes our destination. To love the journey is to accept no such end. I have found, through painful experience, that the most important step a person can take is always the next one.”

― Brandon Sanderson, from the book Oathbringer

COT for today

Jesus “Is”, God is– remember that adding an adjective limits him. We cannot fathom what the Lord is. We are in difficult times. There is an attack on Church, Marriage, Males, Fathers, Family, and children of faith. Society needs strong male figures to lead; Men of character and high-ideals. This can be very intimidating and feel like we fall short. Simply-in everything you do “Ask Him to walk with you” This is the Best advice I ever got and personally try to make this a practice in everything I do (conflict, work, trips, feeling joyful, nervous, down OR distant)-it doesn’t matter. Always ask HIM to walk with you!

POEM- Footsteps, closeout prayer @Pre
