Truth From Mommy That Blessed My Marriage

(This true story is shared by Iris Williams about her life and advice from her mom)
[My husband] Glenn & I had been married quite a few years when I called Mommy Once Again cuz’ my world was completely falling apart… Again ! I was feeling so down, so unimportant & so much like Every Other Young Cute Woman that we knew meant more to my Honey then I did. With much LOVE, She told me that I needed to put first things first, always to greet Him with a smile & a love-twinkle in my eye & to find out how His day was going. To stop starting every conversation with such seriousness all the time, worried continually about the family, the children, life in general, to stop sharing all of my struggles & complaints with my Man “FIRST” but to take my complaints, worries & concerns to the Lord & my struggles to my Faithful Sisters-in-Christ who would encourage me with God’s Word & help me through, & most likely I would find that I wouldn’t need to burden my Sweetheart with so many of them.
First Importance was our relationship as husband and wife. Being His Playmate & Best Friend & To Enjoy Life & have Fun with Him. She said that Good hardworking men need to come home to a Haven of Rest & Peace. Mommy could see clearly that I had started being critical & whiny & too needy & it was making Glenn miserable & stressed. God will always give us the perfect time to talk about the important things with our mates.
Mommy’s Jesus Words continue to encourage me everyday, & I am Forever Grateful.Iris Williams
