An Important Note to those who may read this blog

   I am NOT computer savvy.  There are a million and one ways people could easily figure out who I am.  I have asked people to review this blog who, of course are aware of my identity.  I have also asked my husband for permission to write this, with the understanding that our difficulties are not going to always reflect so positively on him.  He has given his permission...and will probably never read an entry.  This makes it possible for me to be completely honest.  It is my hope that by keeping somewhat anonymous, I will not dishonor my husband by what I write.  It certainly is not my intent.  However, because I am specifically writing about the challenges in marriage, there is no way for him to continually appear as a knight on a white horse whose every breath is taken out of love for me. 
   My goal, as already stated, (but I cannot state it enough), is to pursue with a whole heart what we as wives can do to strengthen our marriages.  It goes without saying that our husbands need to be working on our marriages as well and that they need to attend to their own relationship with God and with God's people.  However, while we pray continually for them, the only people we have the power to change is ourselves.   If I write something that clearly sheds light on a negative encounter with my husband...please forgive him, and forgive me for any hint of discontent I may try to justify. 
The goal is Jesus.  Always.
