I accept you except...

Are you accepting your husband completely?
Are you showing Christ's love by forgiving him?
Will you be content if he never loses those extra pounds, and maybe even gains a few more?
Do you secretly despise the way he __________?

I am not saying that you should love his sins, or accept his behaviour.
I am saying that he is human and he will make mistakes.
God has forgiven you.
God loves you regardless.
Are you striving to forgive your husband?
Are you striving to love him without changing him?

You cannot change your husband.
Only God can do that.
You are free from that responsibility.
You are free to just love and respect your man and have fun with him.

Challenge
-Look critically at how you think about your husband
-Are you accepting him completely?

R-E-S-P-E-C-T...

Do your actions and reactions show that you think highly of your husband and his opinions and decisions?
This is what he wants from you.  
For you to think that he is good enough to take care of you, to lead you, to love you.

He wants you to have faith in him.
He wants you to trust him.

Do you ever question his decisions?
To a man you are questioning his intelligence and authority.

Do you ever push him away in bed?
You are telling him he isn't a good enough man to make you want him.

Do you nag to change or remind him of things over and over?
He will take it as an attack on who he is as a man.

He want you to trust him, to think he is THE MAN.
It means so much to your husband that you would know all his faults, and still trust him, respect him, and obey him.

Even if you are the one who works and he is the one who stays home with the kids, you still need to respect his decisions.  
You need to think of him more highly then of yourself and your own decisions.

Challenge
-Is there any other man that you think of more highly than your husband?  
Work on changing your mental attitude so that your husband is the one who holds your highest regard.  Pray that God will show you your husband's potential.
Ask that God would give you a heart of honor to your husband.
