Reflection for day two

My Dearest One,
Yesterday was far easier than day one for you was it not? Were able to easily meet the challenge?  What was in your heart as you proceeded with the task? Did you do this because you felt you had to or because you wanted to? How did your heart feel? Always remember that what you do to the lease of of men is what you do to me.
Love
Your Savior

I picture Him saying this to me. I did complete day two. I struggled with doing something as an act of kindness. By the end of my day I am so burnt out it takes all I have just to not snap never mind be nice. I had planned on doing the dishes and cleaning up so Dan didn't have to watch over the chores. I felt ill after dinner so I sat down. It was either that or puke everywhere. Dan went to put baby girl in bed around 9 and fell asleep so I chose to let him just stay in bed, where I normally would have woken him to help.

The end result was him waking up a few hours later when I came to bed and getting up to find the chores not done properly and some of the food still out. So much for him feeling relaxed and calmed by  going to bed early. So I guess I kind of failed at that one. The intention was pure.

 I struggled during the day with what act of kindness I could put forward for him. It surprised me that this was so hard.

Day One complete

It's a struggle for me to not unload on Daniel when I am upset. I can't imagine that is easy to listen to. So this day one was really hard to do. I found myself physically biting my tongue many many times last night. I got so frustrated a few times and still chose to say nothing. The gift was that waking up this morning I don't even really remember what they were. I did slip and tell him he put Grace's tights on backwards. Did he need to know that? Nope, he did not but it came from my mouth faster then I could stop it.

This is going to be work.Lord help me to be more positive so this sin't such a struggle. Lord help me to remember all the good reasons why I married this man. Lord thank you for this day, my family and my husband. I am truly blessed
