A WIFE'S WORDS

Her words make my heart smile.
Her words make my feet go the extra mile.
Her words give me courage in every trial.
Her words make me strong and resilient,
Even when my effort is less than brilliant.

My wife has no clue how life changing her words are.
My wife speaks the Word of God into my heart like a shooting star.

When life gets hostile and my spirits are sagging,
My wife lets me rest in her encouragement wagon.

She speaks about a man that her eyes see.
Even though I don't feel like the guy she describes me to be.
I begin to live up to her word that she believes in me.
A word spoken in love makes me truly free.
She speaks and lives God's Word over me.
What else could a man ask for?

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, 
it does not boast, it is not proud.   
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, 
it is not easily angered, 
it keeps no record of wrongs.  
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.   
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 
1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Thank you Linda for being my wife and listening to God. Thank you for speaking His Word over me.
You make me resilient. Jesus loves you and so do I.
