Daily Generous Wife Tips

Small kindness, huge impact

The Generous Wife — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 09:30:25 +0000

This is a guest post from Paul A.K.A. The Generous Husband for his very tired bride (finished a conference and flying all day).

A small kindness when your spouse is exhausted is a huge blessing. Something as simple as opening the garage door for him, or dragging the trash out means the world when he feels too tired to move.

“We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.” Mother Teresa

On Monday I suggested you give your husband a nickname. Today consider giving a certain part of his anatomy a nickname. I encourage you not to make it a silly name, unless your husband has an outrageous sense of humor and is secure in his masculinity. Go for the manly names or a simple name/word that you could use in ordinary conversation (works well if you have children - they will never know that you are propositioning your husband at the dinner table).

Words of love, are works of love. William R. Alger

You’re the Best

Give it a little thought and come up with something that you can brag on him about. Tell him what a great dad he is, or provider, lover, friend, teacher, writer, encourager - the list of possibilities is as individual as he is.

Treat your friends as you do your best pictures, and place them in their best light. Jennie Jerome Churchill

Give your husband a pet name. It can be silly, sweet or sexy, but let him know that he is special to you in a personal way.

No orator can top the one who can give good nicknames. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thought Life

The Generous Wife — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 09:30:59 +0000

Our world is full of things that clamor for our attention. So, pray for your husband's thought life, that he would be consistently drawn to what is right and honorable.

Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things. Philippians 4:8 NAS
