May the Lord be glorified as we seek new ways to spark our marriage and fufill our purpose as wives! Lovingly, Amy UPDATE:  I found this at DOOR POSTS' site, and thought it was perfect for the challenge... PRAYER FOR MY HUSBAND (print pages 1-3 only) ...as well as a calendar I made so you can write any notes or reminders of things you're planning to do throughout the challenge! 30-ENCOURAGEMENT CALENDAR (print this on the back page of the "Prayer for My Husband" pages) MAKING THE 30-DAY ENCOURAGEMENT BOOKLET: When putting your booklet together, be sure to print on both sides of your paper.  I've put mine together in the following way: The cover page (blank on back side) is taken from the Prayer Journal.  You can print out the entire prayer journal and then just put the prayer pages where they belong. Prayer for My Husband pages (taken from the Door Posts' site) Encouragement Challenge Calendar 30-Day Husband Encouragement Challenge for Wives pages 15 Ways to Please Your Husband page (printed on the back page of the Encouragement Challenge) Praying for Your Husband pages (31 Days of Prayer) taken from Revive Our Hearts' site) Prayer Journal for 30-Day Challenge pages (beginning with "Before Beginning", followed with the prayer journal pages, and then lastly the "When it's All Said and Done" page) There you go!  When you're all done putting it together, you will have a wonderful booklet ready to help you bless your husband!

Dear Amy, Hi. I was just thinking about you this morning. Your timing is impeccable. Today's lesson for me taught me that I have been sadly lacking in many areas of my life especially as a wife, mother, daughter and neighbour. Since the first priority is the husband, I have to start there and bingo, here comes your SHMILY challenge. I have always been afraid of trying something like this because it is so tough, and I fear that I will get discouraged and drop out as in the CHCH challenge. But this time, I shall try again. Thank you for your faithfulness as a friend dear Amy. The Lord bless you and keep you strong and healthy, full of creativity and smiles, full of love and grant you many moments of joy in each day. Blessings, Ai Boon

I found you randomly and thought...Aug 18 was our 33rd anniversary what a great idea. But I am going to add a few more men to my list, my son, and my son-in-law. Come by sometime and see how I am doing.

This is so timely for me especially. My dh has been gone for training (we are military), and will return on the 1st. I can't wait to begin using this as a way of blessing him upon returning home.I believe it is so important to keep our marriages and homes centered in God and to serve and love our husbands as we are called to do. I can't wait to browse your blog and your other works, too. Thanks so much for this. Blessings, Janet (visit my blog at The Heart of the Home) Visit the Military HomeFront Support Our Nation
