Real Grace

I just had to write to tell you how much of a great weekend I had.  This year I fully focused on God as my father and my husband as a father to our children.

I was able to truly worship God this weekend in the trust that is building in my relationship with him.  In years past I was filled with too much fear to do this.  I would worship God, but on my terms.  Every day I’m feeling myself let go more and more and trust Him with my life.  It’s very freeing.

This weekend the kids and I honored my husband.  What a fantastic time that was!  Not only did we buy him some things he has been wanting but we spent both Saturday and Sunday doing whatever he wanted and making sure all of his needs were met before we did anything for ourselves.  My husband is not a demanding person at all so this was quite easy to carry out for me.  It was a little more difficult for the kids I think.  They didn’t mind doing things for dad but they didn’t like it when it cut into their video game playing time or something else they really wanted to do.  We had to have a few discussions with them about their attitudes and we’ll most likely be having a few more.  But, overall, it was a great weekend.  My husband is a fantastic father to our children and he does it without expecting anything in return but it was so nice to be able to show him that we notice!
