R-E-S-P-E-C-T

ok as promised a new post. Hopefully these will come more consistently because I got a laptop all to myself. No more sharing :)

Anyway so I work as a traveling nurse. I was making a long 4.5 hour commute today and listening to the book by the Duggar girls, Growing up Duggar. It's been so convicting not just in how I'm not where I should be in my relationship with God but also in the way I treat others and I think that stems from my relationship with God.

For example.. Lately when John (husband) does something I think is dumb I've been calling him silly names like "that's not how you do that, dork." I've felt the disrespectful tone and I keep thinking I need to stop doing that but then to have it spoken flat out what that is doing to him every time I let this dirty habit slip my lips, I'm embarrassed and full of remorse. That's the big growth spurt today. I'm working on developing consistency in my Jesus time too, but that's still VERY much a work in progress but I know diligence in this area will help me grow to speak more respectfully to my husband as well.

Change

Full post soon to come. Spoiler alert today's the day for change
