Watchful Eyes
Brooklyn's Gabba got her an "Elf on a Shelf" doll for Christmas this year. She is doing the 12 days of Christmas so Brooklyn opened her elf today and named her "Fluffy". Fluffy will fly to the North Pole tonight and report to Santa the things Brooklyn did today that weren't so nice. :) In the morning, Fluffy will return and Brooklyn will find her here...P.S. So far, Brooklyn believes in the magic which makes this really fun!
Day 17
Day 17
Pray that your husband will enjoy his manliness as he patterns his life after Christ and strong men in the faith. Pray for his physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual strength. (Eph. 3:16; 1 Peter 2:21; 1 Cor. 10:11)
16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Lord, I pray you will give Aaron the strength and the energy to conquer his battles. I pray he feels stronger when he is close to you Lord. 21 For God called you to do good, even if it means suffering, just as Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in his steps.

Help us remember that daily.
