Praying for My Husband

Posted in Christian Life, Family, Military Life, and Photography

Project 365 – #234 Last week, I wrote about how I have the perfect husband for me.  One thing that I’ve learned is that having a great husband doesn’t mean that I get to take things for granted.  In fact, I’d say it’s just the opposite.  Because I know how special our relationship is and how important he is to me, I need to guard that relationship by making sure he knows that I’ve got his back and that he knows that I’m covering him in prayer.  It’s not easy to be a Godly man in a fallen world.  Temptation…

Project 365 – #231 As you can probably tell, we love to make the Lord’s Creation our classroom.  There is something wonderful about learning outdoors surrounded by the beauty and wonder of nature.  Often, we’ll research the area where we will be exploring prior to heading out – especially when we’re going somewhere like the Grand Canyon.  We try to have books and other research material available for reading.  Munchkin likes to carry a nature/wildlife guide with her, so she can look things up during our hikes. The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is…
