I am the only ...Oh, if only my husband WOULD lead. I am the only one working. He is self-employed and hasn't worked in over 3 months. It's time to find a new line of work, but he won't even look for another job. He is too proud to do it. He is selfish -- if he can't do what he really likes/wants to do, then he will just stay home and take up space. Yet, this man would tell you he is a Christian. Yet, based on what my bible tells me a man of God is, I really have to wonder.........<br /><br />And I just found out that my hours at work are going to be cut in 1/2, or even more.Stacyhttp://www.homeschoolblogger.com/proverbsmamanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-889209736285558012011-03-18T12:38:23.984-04:002011-03-18T12:38:23.984-04:00Thank You for sharing!

I love it and the story behind it, which I think can still be found at the Sanctus Real website. <br /><br />Interesting tidbit: by far the number one set of search engine terms that land people on my blog go something like "husband refuses to lead" or similar. <br /><br />And the number two set of searches? Some combination of "husband" and "dictator." <br /><br />We husbands have a fine line to walk in being both strong and good.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15382135979097709418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-25496488143812230622011-03-17T11:24:43.290-04:002011-03-17T11:24:43.290-04:00I loved watching this video.

I love it when you post music videos and I can take a quiet moment and enjoy the songs I love in a totally different way. <br />Funny thing is, I was trying to tell my hubby about this song the other day...so I just sent him a little thank you note just now...thanking him for his leadership and dependency on the Lord and included the link for him to enjoy during a quiet moment in his day. <br />Thanks for sharing!!!!!!Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03803103125656022838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-66095611370640052952011-03-16T15:00:54.533-04:002011-03-16T15:00:54.533-04:00This post and your blog in general is very helpful...This post and your blog in general is very helpful.

Your post touched me so much. It's so easy for us to see how heavy our own burdens are, but to step back and see with the eyes of Christ , the burdens that our husbands carry takes sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. Praise God for your sentivity to the beautiful Holy Spirit of our living GOD!
