SISTER WISDOM : build a better life

Icon

say to wisdom, "you are my sister." {prov 7.4}

Because I’m Not Naturally Good at Making My Husband a Priority…

...I am initiating a challenge and hoping you'll join me.

It's the Build a Better Marriage challenge.

In a nutshell:

  • a post every day for the next 30 days focusing on how we can build better marriages
  • a 5-minute marriage check & 5-minute action point at the end of each post
  • a once-weekly "round-up" to comment/discuss what we've learned - this is totally optional. The last thing I want to do is add MORE to our already packed schedules. If you want to participate in the round-up, you are welcome, but please don't compromise on family time or responsibilities for it.
  • That's it!
  • Click the link above for more details and/or to sign up with our friendly mr linky.
  • Pssst. You don't even really have to sign up, it just makes me feel good. If you want to just read along, please feel free. The point isn't me feeling good but us all being encouraged to be happy joyful peaceful wives and have blissful fun strong marriages and honor our God!
  • Okay I'm done talking now. I just like bullet points and it's hard for me to quit... Seriously. Stopping now.

Apology to Commenters

A brief note to those who have graciously commented on this blog:

You may have noticed that the trackback link on your comment (if you left a website or blog address) does not work. I don't know why. I've turned off the auto "no-follow" function in Wordpress, but it still keeps disabling the links in comments. I'm sorry. I'm looking for a fix, plus I'll be updating Wordpress in the next week, and perhaps that will take care of it.

I just wanted you all to know that I'm not trying to keep your links disabled, I just haven't figured out how to make it stop. Obviously my tech-savviness has very definite limits... heehee.

Feel free (and I'd love if you would) to put your url within your comment if you have a site or blog. Thanks!

-Annie

  • Freedom to Focus Is Freedom to Accomplish
    Focus is key in getting things done. Be diligent at what you're good at and see what happens. Let other things go, unimportant things. Distraction is the enemy of focus. Planning becomes procrastination and procrastination is the enemy of action. What distracts us? Distraction #1: Prep Work Before I can write or exercise or go here or fix that, [...] […]
  • Parenting 101: The Greatest Joy
    It is 8:30 on a Saturday night and I am about to gorge myself on good chocolate and books. I am full of resolution. I am full of cheer. I am alone with the hot running water, in a cocoon the color of the shower curtain. My library loot is stacked beside me on the [...] […]
  • {Book Review} Beautiful Things Happen When a Woman Trusts God by Sheila Walsh
    Beautiful Things Happen When a Woman Trusts God by Sheila Walsh Thomas Nelson Publishers; 3 out of 5 stars I like this book, I do, so I feel kind of guilty being harsh in my review. But repetition bores me, and the writing in this book is very formulaic. Each chapter follows the same format: personal story [...] […]
  • The Story of Us
    The story of our marriage begins back in the 1990s. Okay, actually further back than that, in the 1980s, when a very young Joe had a crush on the little red-headed neighbor girl, and a very young Annie, miles away, decided she wanted to marry a brown-eyed Italian boy when she grew up. Then they met. They were [...] […]
