Good morning! How are we faithing? It is so cool to discover things when we least expect it. I discovered something about my bride and the female species from a husband/man perspective last night. I've said to my wife many times, "pay attention to your surroundings" and also " how did you miss that?" Well guys, listen up. Last night I showed my bride something I wanted her to pick up at the store. I didn't even know what brand it was but I knew what the label looked like and have many times saw the label and bought it my self but never knew exactly what was on the label per say but I'd recognize it immediately. As I held it out for her to look at because I thought if she saw it it would be better than me explaining. I watched in amazement as she read the label, mouthed what she read and I realized she was committing to memory what the words were and not a photo in her head of what the label looked like. As I watched her I was in awe and quite surprised that I actually got a glimpse of how her mind works. She doesn't see things like I do. Is it a female thing? Is it just her way? Is it the way God made us different? I definitively want to explore why she has to remember things that way and my mind takes a snapshot. God sure is something to make our brains function the same and yet different. The more I learn about the magnitude and complexities of God's creation the more wonderful and amazing he becomes. My bride picks up things I miss and in kind I do her. It made me take a look at my self and how I can judge others for simply not seeing what I see. I also realized I was wrong for doing that. The Word speaks about many things like this but for me anyways, it takes an event like last night for sense to come.
Gen 2:23-24
And the man said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
1Pe 3:7
Ye husbands, in like manner, dwell with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor unto the woman, as unto the weaker vessel, as being also joint-heirs of the grace of life; to the end that your prayers be not hindered.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for revelation. Thank you for making such a creature as woman. Lord we don't mean to be ignorant or dismissive so we ask for vision and wisdom to see truth outside of ourselves. Lord, reveal your Word to us. Teach us all these wonderful things we've been missing either by self absorbing or plain ignorant. Lord we ask blessings on marriages and families. Let not the enemy enter into sanctified unions that are cemented together by you. Lord, thank you for all your blessings and we honor and praise you, in Jesus name, amen
