Day 14 - Love Takes Delight

Enjoy life with the wife you love all the days of your fleeting life.
—Ecclesiastes 9:9 HCSB


"Enjoy life..." Some of you workaholics need to read those first two words again and again. Let it be your motto today. ENJOY life.

But all of us need to hear the next three words over and over again: "with the wife." Say it: "with the wife." Think about it - what does that mean? "Enjoy life with the wife"

Remember why you got married? It wasn't so you'd have someone to wash your clothes and cook your meals - or at least I hope it wasn't. Didn't you desire to share your life with the wife?

Then what changed? Whatever changed, it wasn't for the better if you're no longer enjoying life with her. Change it back. Think about what you lost when you got too busy, too important, too popular, too whatever to slow down, cherish her and enjoy life with her. Change that in a big way for today. And begin to change whatever necessary to enjoy life again, with the wife!

TODAY’S DARE

Purposefully neglect an activity you would normally do so you can spend quality time with your wife. Do something she would love to do or a project she’d really like to work on. Just be together.
