Scripture

Lately, my husband has made it a priority of his to ensure I have time in the Word each morning. I have been feeling distant from my faith and lacking time to do my devotions even if I get up early. Now we both get up and make a little breakfast and give eachother 10-15 minutes of alone time with God. This has been such a blessing. The scriptures I have read have been exactly the right words for me to dwell on during each day.
Yesterday, it was Ephesians 4...2-3:Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 14-15:Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. And 26-31(I will finish the rest in the next post).
We can so easily be proud and tossed to and fro. But I want to be anchored on the Rock, Jesus Christ. I desire for my faith to grow and bear fruit for and through my family. I want more, not materially, but spiritually. I feel hungry to grow in my faith again and I don't want to let it pass by!
Praise the Lord for a godly husband, who sees the importance of my spiritual growth and doing what it takes to give my time with the Lord!
