Challenge #28

Well, well, well!
I received such a positive response regarding yesterday's challenge that I thought it best to issue a do-over! That's right, we're doing it again today!!! Now for those of you who wore yourself out being eager to do for your spouse, this may seem like bad news. But look at it this way, if you wore yourself out yesterday, there shouldn't be as much work left to do today :-) To all the husbands and wives out there following this blog, taking these challenges - I hope you've begun to see a difference in the countenance of your spouse. And even if you haven't, I'm sure they've noticed the difference in you! Continue working diligently to impove the quality of your marriage. Your spouse should receive your best, whether you feel they deserve it or not - God commands it.

So here it is (again):
I find it much easier to ask for help from someone who is eager to help in the first place. That is our challenge today. Be eager to do for your spouse today. Let's discuss what "eager" means so there is no mistake in what's being said here. Eager means "marked by enthusiastic or impatient desire or interest." So be happy and enthusiastic about doing things for your spouse today - show them that you can't wait to do for them!
Whether it's helping with the laundry, cooking a meal, wrangling the children, opening the door for them, whatever you can think of! I literally mean, whatever you can think of. Let's remember that God loves to see us do good for and to our spouse and that He knows our hearts and the reason why we do what we do.

Happy trails!
