“YOU DIDN’T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY TO ME ALL DAY!!!”

I lost it with hubby yesterday! Of all days, the anniversary of our first meeting, nineteen years ago, he harshly criticized me, saying what a problematic CROSS I’ve been to him. I was furious! I came home and immediately went to my daughter’s room to continue my work for God, and right away, God had me to read the caption from a recent post: “GOD IS PLEASED WITH YOU.”

I went on to quote from my Jesus Calling, my appointment with Him: “I AM PLEASED WITH YOU, MY CHILD…You don’t have to perform well in order to receive My love.”

And that was just the reality check I needed, My God is pleased with me regardless of my husband’s feelings at any given moment or day. Other people’s love fluctuates based on whether or not we act according to their liking, but God’s love is steady and unconditional no matter what we do or don’t do.

I kept reading through some old posts, reminding myself that no matter what, I have to stay on the high road with God being the wife, mother, and person He is calling me to be. He said to me yesterday, through this same Jesus Calling, “You can only have one Master.” 

By the time hubby came to get me from Ember’s room to have dinner with him and the boys, I was back to my senses, reminded of what a gift this husband has been to me. So, even if he doesn’t get it right all the time, I still cherish him. I forgave quickly and loved extravagantly, KNOWING nobody’s perfect. Between hubs and God, I’m super spoilt. 

Can we all keep our eyes fixed on God? Super tough, I know, but this is the way to the best life with Him as our Master (Wink! Wink!). I was so mad with hubby yesterday that I wanted to remove this pic as my WhatsApp profile pic, but I felt God in my spirit saying, ‘You shall do no such thing, Ms. Nikki!’ So, I’m resharing it today to remind us all to DO IT ALL FOR GOD’S GLORY, no matter what anyone else is doing. Let’s make Master God PROUD. Our reward is with Him! Heaven and God are our audiences.
