We are still without a computer at home, so it makes it hard to keep up with this. My laptop is at my mom's (Jeff is working, so I'm using it at my mom's), so that she can have a computer to use.
Not too much has been going on. I feel like March just began, and now I'm already preparing for April at work. We are hosting the Regional Teens Involved in April, so that is a pretty big undertaking. It will be our second year doing so, so at least we know what needs to be done ahead of time. I get to judge vocal solo again this year, so I'm excited about that.
I have been thoroughly enjoying the Proverbs31 emails that I've been getting. It's become a habit (a good one too!) to read them each morning in my email as soon as I get to work. I love to see what each author has to say about all kinds of topics. One of my favorite devos that I have received is about helping your husband. Here is an excerpt of something she wrote concerning this topic that I love:
It is critical that I remind my husband with my actions as well as my words that he is my beloved - that he continues to be a valuable and desirable mate in my eyes. The best way for me to be the helper my husband needs is to be reading God's word and be in constant prayer. The Lord has lessons he wants to teach me and the best place for me to learn those lessons is on my knees.
Being my husband's cheerleader is exciting and exhilarating. It could also become exhausting if I'm not careful. I learned early on in our marriage that if I'm going to pour into the life of my husband, I must drink from the fountain of spiritual strength and energy on a daily basis. The living water I receive from God's Word and the Holy Spirit not only quenches my thirst, but allows me the joy of fulfilling my husband's desire for a true helper.

Just something I have challenged myself with, and encourage you to do as well if you are married. And, even if you aren't married, there are principles here you can use in your present relationships.
Enjoy this week! Blessings!
