For Women Only
Wow! Where has the time gone?! I missed posting the last couple weeks of the study for being out of town the first week and for plum forgetting the second... so sorry! I'll update that info. soon even though it is behind.
So, we started the For Women Only (by Shaunti Feldhahn) study last week and I was bummed to have to leave from discussion early... it was getting good! :) Seriously, I have done the study before and enjoyed it immensely and am really looking forward to getting new perspectives on the men in my life, primarily my hubby, and learning how to love him in the way that really means something to him!
Last week the focus was on respect. Respect is the primary way that your man will feel love from you. And his definition of respect is probably different from yours. So, ask him what makes him feel respected and what makes him feel disrespected. And when he gives you his answers, don't scoff because it doesn't mean the same for you or seems silly. You'd want him to really listen to you, so give him the same attention and care you'd hope for from him. Put him first this week in everything, pray for new ideas on showing him respect, and keep all your words to him and about him this week on the positive side! Ready, set, go!
Week 2 of discussion coming up!
