Day Five

Day Five:
"Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers." Eph. 4:29

Another way to describe the positive side of this "30-Day Encouragement Challenge" is by using the word "edify," which means, "to build up." Negative comments only discourage and tear down. Positive comments encourage and build.

Do you edify your husband before others, adding to his value in their eyes? This is especially important to other family members.

Do you praise your husband to his relatives, and yours? Does your husband's mother know how much you love him? How about your dad? Perhaps you can drop a word of praise into a conversation or letter. Be creative in letting your relatives know that you respect your husband, love him, and support him - in spite of whatever flaws and weaknesses he may have.


My Take:

How is everyone doing? See Paula's comment on the last post. Great insight! Keep going, ladies! As soon as MDH (My Dear Husband) awakens from his nap I'm going to praise him for the first thing that comes to mind, because there are SO many things I could tell him I appreciate about him!! I hope it's going well for all of you!
