The Disciplined Life


It's late, the sun has gone down and my awesome husband is still on the roof trying to fix a mysterious leak. He has been up on that roof for almost 5 hours making repairs and trusting his wisdom that he indeed has located the source of the leak. As I reflect on my life with this man, I love the fact that he never gives up. He is steady, stable, diligent, faithful, and trustworthy. Since he was little he was taught how to live a disciplined life. I see the fruit of this in all aspects of his life and I am grateful to love and learn from him. Wherein most people find living a disciplined life as boring or rigid, I have learned that it brings great freedom. Wherein some even hate the word "discipline" because of the punishment they received as a child, I have a new respect for this disciplined life. This mighty man of God is disciplined in his spiritual life, physical life and at his work place. He has great favor at work because of his diligence and faithfulness. He has taught me alot and I am honored to call him my husband, friend, greatest encourager and teacher. Thanks honey! You Rock!
