It is no secret that I am HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE with my husband! You see, we've been married for 14 years! I've been reading a new book by Sharon Jaynes called "Praying for Your Husband from Head to Toe." This is a MUST HAVE book for wives everywhere! I confess that I got all choked up praying for him this morning. Sure, I'd prayed for him before but not like this.
The other day I was in the kitchen and He was baking his famous ginger snap cookies that are to die for. I said, "Honey, the whole house smells Heavenly." He just smiled. He let me have a cookie and it was simply divine. Then the Holy Spirit whispered, "I want your life to be just like those cookies, a sweet smelling savor for me."
I am WONDER STRUCK by the mere fact that Jesus gave me Sean Roark for my husband! He's truly a sweet, humble guy who truly has a servant's heart! He'd give you the shirt off of his back. He's 6 feet tall with blonde hair and blue eyes! He is jolly and we both happen to be morning people! It's really fun at our house around 7 a.m.! Stay with me...I am going somewhere with this.
Even more than that, is the fact that Jesus Christ is a morning person, evening person, and night person. He doesn't sleep or slumber. Above all else, I want to please him in all that I do as a wife, woman in ministry, and a person in the workplace.
So as in the words of my sweet friend Margaret Feinberg, I double dog dare you to encourage your husband today, pray for him today and show him the love that only comes from Christ!
Living Wonder Struck,
Alicia Roark
