It all started about half a year to maybe a year ago when
she did a couple Bible studies based on Ephesians and Proverbs 31. I wasn’t totally following the content of the
studies, but they had something to do with being a godly woman/wife. Then I started to notice some subtle
manipulations.
All of a sudden I noticed that she doesn’t have a short fuse
with me anymore (not that I can blame her when she does). She is trying to take care of things in the
house so I don’t have to be busy when I get home from work. She is looking after the kids so that I don’t
get as frustrated with them with the little things. She is supporting me and building me up. She is putting my priorities ahead of her own. She is showing me way too much love…
I have finally put the whole thing together. I am not going to stand still for being
manipulated! Two can play at this
game! Now I am going to try to be as
considerate as possible with her. I am
going to try to be sensitive to what she needs so I can meet those needs. I don’t want the kids to run her down too
much so I will help out wherever I can.
I want to free her up whenever I can so she can go running and do some
of the things she wants to do with her friends.
I want to start being less selfish with my time. I want to finish off a bunch of things that
have been sitting undone at home which she has suspiciously been so
understanding about. I’m going to spend
more time convincing her that I love her.
I want to find out how God intends me to be a father and husband and
then do those things so I can totally get back at her J Mwaahahahaha! Let's see how she likes it when the shoe is on the other foot!
Maybe God spoke to her in those Bible studies. What an example she has been to me in this.
Think He intended marriage partners to manipulate each other
with love in this way?
