Sadly, that is our third and last part with the our guest post Lori... Gosh,,, It has been learning journey, I know that I took a few notes.. I hope it inspired you as it did for us.Once said "The great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in five words: I did not have time." How you deal with time management? And how you see this relating to marriage?
My husband travels Monday through Thursday to Northern California for his job. It has put great urgency on us to make sure that we are spending quality time together when he is in town. I have recently changed my role at work so that I no longer work on Sundays which now gives us one more day together.
How much you pray with your husband? How much you pray for him?
I pray for him every morning in my quiet time, especially when he is traveling. Gracie and I pray for him in her bedtime prayers and Dan leads our prayers at night before we go to bed.
How you see the role of prayers in your life and you husband life?
It is extremely important. We learned once at a marriage conference how important it is to pray over your spouse daily. Since Danny travels during the week, it is a habit that we are unable to keep up but when he is home and we are holding each other and praying, it makes not only our day better but it also brings us closer.
If there is any advice you would like to give to newly married couple, what it would be?
Accept that things will change a bit. Women, know that hair on your husband will grow in places you did not know had hair before you got married. Men, the shower drain will clog more than you ever imagined it could depending on the length of your wives hair.
I always say, that marriage with difficulties is a living marriage? What are your thoughts?
How you deal with conflict? How you can make the best out of it?
I think conflict is healthy in a marriage as long as you agree to disagree. We all have our own opinions and as long as issues are resolved and not hidden to the point they erupt later, it is perfectly normal to have conflict. A good debate gets the blood flowing and always makes for a great “make up” time later.
