Proverbs 18:22 tells us, “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”<\/em><\/p>\n

That verse is near and dear to my heart<\/strong> for two reasons: First, because I sincerely want it to be my husband’s testimony of me.<\/p>\n

It would make me so sad to think that my actions and attitudes toward the man I married would ever cause him to doubt the truth of this verse.<\/strong> Know what I mean?<\/p>\n

That’s why so much of what I think and read and write about centers on strengthening and nurturing my marriage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If that is one of your goals, too, I’d encourage you to visit my Love Your Husband<\/a> Facebook page or my Loving Life at Home<\/a> blog for lots of Biblical encouragement<\/strong> in that vein.<\/p>\n

But the second reason this verse means a lot to me is because of what happened last week: My third-born proposed to his sweetheart the day after Valentine’s. <\/strong><\/p>\n
