REFLECTION (Day 7 of 7)
(Need to start at the beginning? Day 1)
Our three areas of reflection this week.
BE A SAFE PLACE – so your spouse can trust in you.
REST – get enough rest, take care of your heart, mind, and soul.
WORK – be intentional about where you spend your time and effort.
Interesting week for me.
I spent a good deal of time thinking about being a safe place for my husband. A part of that is knowing his personal wounds, his love language, his needs, his desires, etc.
I’m doing better with the rest thing and I need some work on the rest/play/work balance (I’ve gotten a bit lazy with the housework, need to deal with that).
(Just a pretty picture. Because.)
How did y’all do? What did you learn? What were your successes (however small)?

Thank you for an insightful week, Lori. I have been especially meditating on and working toward becoming a safer place for my husband. I also have struggled over the past few years with balancing work, fun, relationships and other responsibilities due to some life dynamics that have changed. It’s been very hard, but truthfully, seeing a good counselor is helping so much. Praise God for people who are trained to help guide us.
I wish we all had counselors.
They are so helpful, especially during difficult or stressful times. Thanks so much for sharing.
