nine Perfect the

art of time

management.

You may be used to spending Saturday afternoons engaging in your favorite hobby or grabbing a peanut butter and banana sandwich for dinner instead of cooking a “real” meal, but once you tie the knot, my daily schedule becomes our daily schedule. While your time belongs first and foremost to Jesus, in marriage, it also belongs to your husband. To ensure that he gets your complete focus, all other tasks need to be finished in a timely and organized fashion, freeing you up to be all there when you are with your man. While scheduling quality alone time with your husband is important, he should never become a task to “check off” or an appointment scheduled into your calendar. Being purposeful and wise in the use of your time allows you to reflect the peace and sacred calm of Christ rather than becoming a harried housewife.
