I like challenges...How about you?

I stumbled across a great Christian message board recently and I decided that it would be some time well spent if I was going to be browsing the Internet anyway. I joined and quickly found a few forums among which I felt right at home. There's a marriage forum for discussions relating to godly marriages and how to create them and there was also a 'women's only forum' where only the ladies are allowed to participate in the discussion. (Before you go thinking it's a biased site...there's one for the fellas too) There's even a forum for games.

Anyway, on just my 2nd day as an active poster there, I saw a thread in the women's forum with a title about a 30 day husband encouragement challenge...Since, as I've mentioned before, I'm always on the lookout for new ways to bless my husband I just had to check it out. I found through reading the thread that this was the 2nd time that the women of this forum had done this challenge and that they planned to start March 1st for this round...perfect...just a couple of days from when I found the thread. I eagerly said that I was game and PM'd the thread starter (as directed in the thread) for the details. She emailed me a fifteen page PDF file with day by day directions. Oh boy...not only will I have other women to support me in my effort to build up my husband but I also have INSTRUCTIONS! That can't hurt!

Besides the day by day suggestions...the introductory paragraph lays out the ground rules...for the duration of the challenge I am to say nothing negative either to or about my husband and I am to look for ways to show him my appreciation and my pride in being his wife. I must say that I'm quite excited about this challenge...not only do I simply love a challenge...but this is a challenge that will help me show my husband just how much he means to me. I'll keep you posted...oh and if you feel led to join me, just give me your email and I'll send you the details too!
