My Husband Rocks~Friday

We have been under attack this week; I don't know if it's because we are coming to the end of our story or what?  BUT I do know this, God is stirring something up in Josh.  He is moving in ways we cannot see.  I absolutely love how the Holy Spirit moves in Josh's heart, like never before.  He stands confused at times, and he can only ask God to either reveal Himself or give him a peace.  It's refreshing. 

This weekend Josh fixed the breaks on his car, and he spent time trying to work up the figures on starting a business. I am excited, for him, as he continues doing what he needs for his project.  I, also, love that I have a mechanic for a husband.  He is thinking through so many aspects; thinking ahead is something I adore. 

Josh took Jael on a Daddy-daughter date on Monday. I love seeing my daughter grow up with the security she has in being a princess, loved by her daddy.  Her daddy gives her a picture of THE FATHER, and I can't be more grateful. Having worried about what the future would hold for her, I am thrilled to see that things are better than ever. 

Since there wasn't one thing that Josh did this week that stood out above the rest, I had to put it all.  Thanks for being amazing, Josh.

As you know from a month ago, I have been starting out on my weight loss journey.....wow, that can just really be tough.  I have stayed disciplined, and I am encouraged by the results.  I know that the weight will come off if I stick to it, but it can be difficult.

My weight has been an issue for many years, only in the last year have I felt that it was changing.  I have a husband with NEW eyes, and I absolutely LOVE it. Does this mean I am going to let myself go? No! Actually, the complete opposite. Knowing that Josh accepts me JUST the way I am--FOR REAL--means that I can't wait to look the best I can.  For many years, I knew that Josh was lying when he said that he was "fine" with my weight. (because sometimes it would slip out how he wasn't happy) I could tell how distant he was, too!  Now when he says it...I really do believe him.  He doesn't want me to be TOO skinny, either!

He is free with compliments, and I am thrilled to have such a great supporter. Josh, this last month, has given me so much encouragement. He knows I can do this, but for me...not necessarily do I feel he is pushing me for HIM.  He LOVES how I look, and I am happy.  Many years I have felt that I had other cheerleaders, and I can honestly say that I believe Josh has now become one of my biggest fans. (I cannot be any more thrilled!)

Only a few more months and I think I will be at my goal, but I am more thrilled that I have a husband who doesn't just love me for my looks.  A husband who cheers me on, when I am down!

Thanks, Babe, for the glimpses I get of WHO you have become. I LOVE YOU!!!

You rock more EVERY day.

It takes great courage and strength for me to share my story, but I don't want to forget that, for Josh, this has to be so difficult.  His entire life is being laid out for all of you to read. AND he said it was fine.  We have grown so much over the last couple of years, and he has been willing to have our story be a light to others. BUT can you imagine having everything "out there?"  This is a story of hope, but I am SO proud of him allowing me to share so much.  I know God is turning what was HORRIBLE into something that is GOOD!!!

Thank you, Babe, for letting me share our story. I love you more than I could have ever dreamed possible. 

You have been on the edge a few times, but I have never seen you jump in until NOW. 

You are a great leader, and I want to follow you in the Lord. 

YOU ROCK!
