The Wife Life: Quick tips on bringing in the New Year

Bringing in the New Year Tips - 2019!!

My fellow Wife-Lifers, we have arrived to the threshold of 2019.  Congratulations on making it through this year.  It has been a wild ride.  Regardless of how your 2018 was, whether there was heartache and mistakes or big breaks and booty shakes, it's time to put the year behind us.  You can't drive forward and look in your rear view mirror at the same time, its dangerous - in life and on the road.  

 So, here are the rules for you Mrs. Fabulous:

 1)  Tonight, understand no matter what, that you are the most beautiful, sexiest woman in the world to your husband.  This is factual, but we often don't believe it.  In God's design, Eve was made perfect for Adam.  And when Adam beheld her, his jaw dropped and the world stopped.  He followed her around like a puppy dog.  God has not changed his design for us.  You are Eve to your Adam. Revel in it and strut in it!  
 2)  I give you permission to be a freak!  Yes!  We all know how classy you are.   But tonight, you can let loose for your husband.  Back in the day, when you were single I'm sure you could tell stories to make me blush.  Now, that you're married, you put all your goodies in a box and put them in the attic.  That's so awfully backwards.  You are a wife.  Having fun with your husband is definitely permitted.
3)  Be appreciative for wherever you are, with whatever you have, doing whatever it is you're doing.  As wives, we have the tendency to scan for messes, flaws, potential hazards, and places to make improvements.  Tonight is not that night.  Compliment how wonderful your husband smells and looks.  Let him know you appreciate how hard he's worked this year.  And it doesn't matter if you're toasting with a glass of Andre Champagne or Vueve Clicquot, take a long look around you and Cheers to all of it.  

Have a safe and happy New Year!  And God Bless You!

Think Hope

“But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope.”   Lamentations 3:21          Keep your light burning How powerful is the mind, that we can only scratch the surface of what it can do?   We can study it but after years of assiduous research, we have still ascertained only a fraction of its capabilities. One thing Jeremiah tapped into that he knew for sure, was that the mind is an instrument for hope if we can harness and focus it.   When Lamentations was written, the prophet Jeremiah was in anguish and distress.   It was a time much more desolate than today.   It was a time when no one had any real hope.   It was a time when all the bad decisions were finally catching up to the people of God.   I’ll admit that I’m often rushing here and there for meetings and appointments.   I try to get an early start, but the earlier I am, the slower I move.   Often, to be on time, I wi...

Start with Expectancy - Stay in Expectancy

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us…Ephesians 3:20 Do you ever wake up in the morning feeling, blah!   Feeling like you’re just going through the motions with no real sense of joy, excitement or expectancy.   You feel like today is going to be just another same ole, same ole day.   It actually makes you linger in bed a little longer because you don’t really have anything that’s pushing you to get up and greet the day.   That’s what today was like for me. Without sounding dismissive about the blessings God is filling my life with, I’m not saying my feelings are valid. I’m just saying that’s what I felt.   I have a lot to be thankful for and I see God all around me, but this morning it took some prompting, praying and reading my Word to get my mind back on the right track.   As I was making coffee, my husband asked me, “Is everything alright?”   He notic...

Understanding the buyer

When I found this scripture in the Bible, I started laughing so hard.   It was there, waiting on me to become a professional real estate agent, so I would actually understand it. “It’s no good, it’s no good!” says the buyer; then off he goes to boast about his purchase.” Proverbs 20:14 (NIV). “The buyer haggles over the price, saying, “It’s worthless,” then brags about getting a bargain!” (NLT). Hilarious.   All of my real estate agents know what I’m talking about.   We have buyers like this.   We have seen this first hand.   This morning I grabbed my Bible, looking for it’s truths to touch my life and help me along my day, and I found this.   It just goes to show that when people start saying that the Bible is outdated and doesn’t deal with the issues of today.   Or when they say they can’t get specifics, everything is generalities and we have to come up with our own understanding.   This is how God responds to that! ...
