My Husband's Heart

It Is beautiful. 

And not just in a yeah, he's a good guy, he's a Christian kind of way. 

It is beautiful, in a  pure heart, true believer, Gospel sharing, awesome Husband, amazing Daddy, full of Christ's love sort of way.

Did I make myself clear enough? 

The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord      Isaiah 11:2 NKJV

I never thought any man could ever love our Lord and Saviour as much as my own Daddy does, but I have found one!!  He trusts God, and knows that the Bible IS the infallible word of God.  He seeks wisdom and guidance from the Holy Spirit always. The Holy Spirit in turn gives my husband the wisdom to teach and guide me in patience and trust. 
He has a boldness in Christ that I have always seen in my Daddy and I am proud to call him the leader of our home.  He is neither a harsh, nor selfish leader, and he grows in love and care for our family. Because of this, I have grown in willing and loving submission to my husband's leadership.

As with any Christian my husband has been through attacks from the devil, and the world, and even sinful flesh in its obvious forms.  But, because of his knowledge of God's word, those attacks will never work.  He spoke with someone earlier this week, and as the phone call progressed, he was talking about the bible and how it gives us instructions for our lives. After realizing that this person had no idea what he was talking about in the Bible, finally, he asked them, "Are you Christian?" (the very nature of the phone call suggested otherwise, so it needed to be asked) But, he was prepared for it.

¹⁶ All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for

 reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, ¹⁷ that the man of God may be

 complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.  2 Timothy 3:16-17

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.  Colossians 2:8

**********

 ¹⁰ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. ¹¹ Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. ¹² For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,^[a] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ¹³ Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. ¹⁴ Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, ¹⁵ and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; ¹⁶ above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. ¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;  Ephesians 6:10-17

I thank God every day for my amazing husband. 

He is amazing only by the Grace of God.
