Step Back and Watch

It's only Sunday afternoon and WOW!! The Lord has done so much already today. Words can not begin to expressed how much I have learned this weekend. We have had a maintenance problem in our home for the past week. The problem has made me physically ill and frustrated. My husband (who I love dearly, and is a wonderful man in so many ways) did not know how to fix it. He would say when I would mention it that, he didn't have time or he would get to it when he could. (I'm not sure I got 70% on this one). I think I handled it better than I would have BEFORE we came to Grace , but I know I could have done better. This morning as we were getting ready for church I told the Lord that I was not going to say nothing, I was just going to pray. When the morning service started my husband was in the right place at the right time. Jeff was taking to him about the usher schedule when the church had a similar problem as the one we had at home. At hand shaking time my husband came to me and said" I need to help Jeff and Bill with something I will be back for the preaching. When we got in the van after church my husband said to me" Could you sit in the care with the kids before lunch I need to run into to Home Depot and pick up a few things My heart inside quietly jumped for joy could it be that he was going to fix our problem? When he came out of Home Depot he could not stop talking about what a nice guy Jeff was and how Jeff had told him how to fix our problem. He said he really got to know Jeff and he enjoyed working along side of him. As I type this my WONDERFUL husband is fixing our problem and he is gaining the confidence to work on more projects around the house. I'm very thankful for Godly men in our church that allowed my husband to help them fix a problem and gave him the information he needed to get our job done. Mr. Prodehl and Mr. Lindahl thank you for your example and for your Godliness even durning a problem. Even though my husband missed a very good sermon he learned how to be a good handy man. Now that he is a handy man his score is 110% and I have to say ladies I did marry the perfect husband, the perfect father, and the best man in the whole world. Now if in the future I could just learn to shut up every thing would be fine. THANK YOU LORD FOR ANSWERED PRAYER and Thank you Lord for my husband.
