8 Days to Rethink Your Thinking (For Wives)নমুনা

Are your thoughts about your husband EXCELLENT? This simply means the best of the best.  

Again, we must think about which of our thoughts are the most common in our heads. These common and repeated thoughts produce actions in our lives. When we choose to think excellent thoughts about our husbands, we will begin to notice that our actions follow these thoughts. 

My guess is that for the overwhelming majority of you, you had the best of the best thoughts of your husband on your wedding day. You might have even struggled to see anything but excellence in him. The old saying “love is blind” is often true in engaged and newlywed couples. 

Why, exactly, do we decide to quit thinking those things? Oh yeah, life happens. As the years pass by, we allow “reality,” or hurts and disappointments to overtake our thoughts and, before we know it, we are no longer thinking the best thoughts of our husbands. However, in Philippians 4:8, we are told to think excellent, or the best of the best thoughts. This includes thinking this way about your husband.  

Take a moment and journey back to those days when you first discovered you loved your spouse. Reminisce about those times and allow yourself to begin to celebrate them yet again. As you do this you just might find you actually still feel that way. 

This stroll down memory lane is actually biblical. “I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. Psalm 77:11 (NASB 1995) In this passage David says he chooses to remember the wonders of old. We can follow in his footsteps and choose to remember the wonders of our husbands. Go ahead, think excellent things about your husband. 

Choose today to spend some time thinking about the wonderful and excellent things about your husband. What are your favorite things about him? What were the things that you loved so much about him that you decided to answer yes to his marriage proposal?
