This made me laugh. It was a woman’s retreat. Four women
were sitting at a table eating roast husband while an older lady and I sat
there hearing their comments. We ate and did some polite chit chat, but she
seemed in a hurry.
“He forgets our anniversary,” the first gal said.
“Well, mine gives me gifts, but all I want is more time with
him.”
“My husband thinks washing dishes is
women’s work. I would love to have him help me. But he sits in his chair while
I cook, clean, and care for our kids.”
“Mine helps around the house, but he
never talks. If he would just ask me how my day went, or tell me I did a good
job.”
The older lady sat there with a twinkle
in her eyes. When they finished she stood up to leave and spoke up.
“Well ladies, the way I see it, you can either
switch husbands, or learn how to receive and give love to the one God gave you.”
Later they walked into the auditorium together and realized she was the speaker
for a retreat called: Learning to be
Content.
But Godliness with contentment is great gain. 1Timothy 6:6
