Favorite images of the weekend.

I know people just say there is something about a relationship between a son and their mother or between a daddy and a daughter. But let me tell you how important a father and his relationship to his son is. This is the man who is to show them how to be a man. A godly man. To raise him to honor, love and obey his mother. To be the priest, provider and protector of the family. To show him what if means to be a husband who loves his wife in a way that resembles how Christ loved the Church and gave his life for it. That can't be easy...

These moments are actually frequent at our house. My boys have such a good relationship with their daddy, because he has been actively developing that relationship by wrestling, by reading books, sitting and talking and playing video games or action figures. They LOVE their daddy!

Lord, continue to use Kevin as an example to teach our boys how to be the men you have created them to be, with their different personalities and genetic make-up. Use their strengths and weaknesses for your Glory and honor. Thank you for the plan you have for their life and that you allowed us to join in that plan. We are honored to be apart of their lives, our little superheroes!

For kevin

I love this prayer someone wrote for their husband that i found on line:

God will Take away all my husbands sins and wipe away all of the evil things my husband has done.My husband is patient, kind, lovable. He is not rude or self seeking. My husband is a God’s temple and a a branch of Jesus Christ. My husband is the body of Christ and Satan has no power over my husband. He is the temple of the Holy Spirit and has been established, anointed and sealed by God. 2 Corinthians 1:21-22, Psalm 51:9, 1 Corinthians 3:16,1 Cor. 13:4-5, .1 Corinthians 3:16, John 15:5, Rom. 12:21

kevin is the temple of the HOly Spirit!! He has been ESTABLISHED, ANOINTED and SEALED by God. He is a Co-heir with Christ and has authority over me and elijah and cooper.  

Prayer for my husband today.

I found this online as i was searching Scripture to pray over my husband.  I loved it!

God made kevin and formed him with His own hands.  Give Kevin understanding so that he can learn your commands.  Grace and peace is with Kevin from God our Father and the Lord Christ Jesus.  God will complete the good work He started in Kevin and his steps are ordered by the Lord.

In Jesus Name!!

Taken from: Phil. 1:6; Ps. 119:73; Ps 37:23; I Cor. 1:3

how can i pray for my husband?

One of my goals for this year is to intentionally and intensely pray for kevin.  I realize this is a frame of mind, a prayerful continuance through out my day.  I feel like i am so focused on myself and the boys that i lose track of what may be going on with my husband.  i want to pray scripture over him
