loving selflessly

We all have moments where we realize things about ourselves. The past few days have been that for me. I have been surprised to realize how little I have been willing to do out of love for my husband. I have so many excuses. I don't iron his shirts because I don't have time and it is a waste of my time to iron his shirts. Yikes! Truly my list could go on and on. Today I have set my flint to ask what can I do today to show my husband love. Yes, I must tell you I already was selfish this morning and unloving and yet I quickly confessed it as sin, received forgiveness and am ready to begin a new. Anne of Green Gables says "tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes" and I recognize that every moment is fresh with no mistakes. It is with great humility and excited I begin again this moment and say I will daily learn to lay my life down for my husband and our son. Enjoying the process!
