\u201cM<\/b>y wife always cooks breakfast for me,\u201d boasted the husband.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you thank her every time?\u201d I asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course not; that would be silly. She has always done it,\u201d he replied.<\/p>\n
Whatever your mate does for you needs to be noticed with a smile, a grateful remark or a kind action in return. It\u2019s so easy to take one another for granted. But doing so reveals an ungrateful heart.<\/p>\n
Jesus was an expert at taking notice of people. He particularly noticed those who served and ministered to Him. You can do the same.<\/p>\n
Husbands should not take for granted clean toilets, ironed shirts, laundry, cooked meals, etc. Wives should not take for granted yard work, washed cars, trash taken out, etc.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t get this wrong. I\u2019m not suggesting that there are typical things a husband or wife does. I\u2019m only suggesting that whatever is done as an expression of love and service should never go unnoticed.<\/p>\n
Try this: Begin noticing every expression of love your mate says or does.<\/p>\n
Find creative ways to say thank you like writing with a marker on the mirror in the bathroom your expression of gratitude. Leave thank you notes in unusual places like luggage and laundry.<\/p>\n
And for this we are very, very grateful to you.<\/i><\/p>\n
