Coming Home
I'm tired. The days away were well-spent but exhausting. I am glad I made the trip, but I'm even happier to be coming home. There's nothing like a few days away to remind me how much I love being home.

If you’re jealous or overprotective of your spouse you risk smothering. True honouring is the opposite—honouring allows your spouse to be free to be his or her own person.
Something I’ve learned this year is good intentions don’t effect change, action does.
Men, take time each day to affirm and encourage your wife. Honouring her is a role that only a husband can fill.
If your work has become your all-consuming interest or your greatest source of identity, worth, and security, this lesson is for you. Though it may feel unnatural, sit back, put up your feet, and allow yourself to get a grip on leisure.
Submission doesn’t mean wives are doormats, blindly carrying out orders. It means they’re willingly supportive of their husband’s leadership. Dignity, equality, and unity are the essentials of submission.
Marriage is a partnership, not a dictatorship. Christlike leadership is based on love, grace, and honour.
The One who began will continue right up to the end. Being the original finisher, He will persist. I’m comforted to know He won’t be talked out of a plan that has to do with developing me. I need help! Don’t you?
From Ephesians 5:15–21, Pastor Chuck Swindoll explains Paul’s command to “be filled with the Spirit”—what it is, what it is not, and what it looks like in daily life through speech, song, thankfulness, and mutual submission.
Sing loud enough to drown out those defeating thoughts that normally clamour for attention. Release yourself from that cage of introspective reluctance—SING OUT! You are not auditioning for the choir, you’re making melody with your heart.
