Today I want you to take a few minutes and just ponder what your marriage is to you and what you want your marriage to be.

Marriage is an irrevocable commitment, of unconditional love, toward an imperfect person.

Pursuing Your Husband: What Does it Look Like?

Pursuing your Husband 31 Days of Tips, Tricks, Prayers, How Tos, & Why Tos to Build a More Intentional Passion with Your Husband @JessicaMWhite.com

You have to decide for yourself what Pursuing Your Husband looks like. This weekend I want you to be intentional, to really think about your life, your priorities, how your days look, and every aspect of the things that fill your hours. Think about them. Think about how you can make tiny changes. How you can eek out a few seconds here and there to pursue your husband.

Pursuing your husband is not about doing, so that he will do for you.

Once you figure out that, you can figure out just what pursuing your husband is going to look like for YOU. Whether that be an elaborate series of events and actions, or smaller, but still meaningful. The point of this thought-time is that you want to come up with a reasonable expectation for this month, what you have time and means to accomplish.

Put your own expectations of what your husband should do for you aside.

There is one minor stipulation in this endeavor….let it go. I want you to let go of your expectations. Let go of what you think your husband should do, whether he notices or reciprocates is not what this is about. I know this sounds easy, but it’s not.

Completely putting aside the very idea of your husband reciprocating your pursuit, is the only way you can do this without becoming bitter. That you’re doing all this work and he doesn’t even acknowledge, let alone do something in return for you. Can you do that? It’s honestly going to be the hardest part of this series.
