Instruction

I have noticed a pattern in my daily schedule.  I am not quite sure when it started, or why, but when Husband walks out of the house he always tells me to 'be good.'

Me.  Not the children.  Not the dogs.  Me.

I wonder what gave him the impression that I am anything but?  His offspring is healthy, happy, learning everyday.  His sock and underwear drawer is always full.  His meals are always prepared for him, so what else matters?

I guess my Man understands me better than I realize.  The only reason I can accomplish any task is because Christ strengthens me.  The only reason I survive each day is by knowing that if I am not smiling at the end of it the problem resides with me.

So hearing, 'be good' from my Partner reminds me that I need to cling to the feet of Jesus, it's His good that pours out from me.
