Loving the Husband

Happy Valentine's day all!

Today, Sander is home from work after 6 days working 16 hour days on an off-shore oil rig platform (as I was just informed..."it's not a rig, it's a platform".  Now we know.)  He is tired, to say the least, so I thought I would try and pamper him for a change on Valentine's day.

I'm going to make these chocolate peanut-butter cups (one of his favorite candies) this afternoon.  They look so easy and quite delicious.  I am going to use my favorite brand of natural peanut-butter...I have high hopes.  I'll let you know how easy they turn out to be.

One other thing I wanted to pass on, on a day like today when we are thinking of love and such, is a list of 30 things you can pray for your husband.  I have written them into my daily calendar so I see them each day, and it is an easy reminder to pray for him each day.  When each day seems the same as the next, it is nice to have a list reminding me to pray for these different areas of his life.

Here's the list:

1. Wife
2. Work
3. Finances
4. Intimacy
5. Affection
6. Temptations
7. Mind
8. Fears
9. Purpose
10. Choices

23. Repentance
24. Deliverance
25. Obedience
26. Self-image
27. Faith
28. Future
29. Priorities
30. Relationships
