Habit #3: Master Habit #s 1 & 2
Since I have not yet been very successful at habit #1, I don’t think I’m going to add a new habit this week. But I will say that I have been enjoying habit #2. I love watching my husband’s bewildered reaction as I do things to “make him feel important.” It’s not that I wasn’t attentive before. I was. But I don’t know, I just say things in a different way since starting this new habit, and it has him wondering what I’m up to.
It’s cute.
He’s like a shy little kid about it, and he is soaking it all up big time.
That’s the funnest part of habit #2 — seeing his reaction to it. It just makes me want to practice it more and more. I haven’t told him that’s what I’m up to. I will eventually.
As for habit #1 — I haven’t been feeling very well, and have a lot of aches and pains. So, I need to work harder at not moaning and groaning about how I feel. I hate to admit that I’m a whiner, but I am.
Maybe I’m afraid to try a third habit. And I guess, I am afraid because I’m afraid to fail.
Still, there’s nothing written that says I can’t take my time in the “new leaf turning” thing. So I will.
And should Jesus come before I master it - I will rejoice that I’ll be changed in a twinkling of an eye! But for now, the change comes slow and steady, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day.
