Day Sixteen: "And the LORD God said, 'It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him." Genesis 2:18
God says that it is not good for man to be alone. But, the way some women criticize their mates, the husbands may long for solitude. Be careful today not to criticize your mate, but look for ways to encourage him personally and publicly.
Speaking of communication, does your husband communicate with you? God has made you a companion and helper for your husband, and part of being "one flesh" with him is the privilege of sharing and discussing personal needs and concerns. Thank God for that wonderful gift. Thank your husband for communicating with you. If your spouse does not communicate as you wish, look for ways that he communicates that are normal for him—smiling at you, nodding his head, even a pleasant "grunt!"—and then thank him for letting you know that he cares. Perhaps he needs to be lovingly taught how to communicate. Be patient with him . . . and listen when he does speak.: I truly thank God for the relationship I have with my husband. He is very good at communicating with me, and expressing his feelings to me. He never hides things from me, he willingly shares his heart with me. I will forever be grateful for that, and enjoy the communication between the two of us.

My husband communicates so much better now. But he married a whirl wind communicator...he can still be quiet at times...but I Have learned how to draw him out over the years. It is SO key!
MAY YOU AND HUBBY HAVE A BLESSED WEEKEND.
