Does God ever have to get your attention that way? With a slap in the face? Whew! Good. I’m not the only one.
He did it last week in a counseling session. With my husband. So very hurtful and not pretty.
He told me the “nice” things I do for him are icing on a cake. Without the cake.
He said our marriage was complacent.
So, what is the cake? Me being skinny. Only a miracle from God will do that one.
But. While I wait for that miracle, there are other things God needs to make known to me in a more real way.
So. I’m off on a search to understand how men view respect. It’s a foreign language for most women, but one I need to learn. Then, I need to pray more over him and fret less. I need to forgive more and not be so quick to take offense. I need to believe my husband actually loves me in spite of his very odd ways of showing it.
More later.
