In fact, I think a lot of women specifically do. My husband is always very good at reminding me that those who I sinfully envy will have difficulties as well as blessings, and they may envy me for what god has given me. <br /><br />I pray we'll both be able to rejoice over the lives God has given us, and be content with the many blessings he showers upon us every day!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing :-)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00770377740616932615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-80717586509902847832010-08-20T21:32:20.330-07:002010-08-20T21:32:20.330-07:00You gave me a lot to think about, thanks.You gave me a lot to think about, thanks.Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807694977896968928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-40975882220723177122010-08-20T21:30:13.858-07:002010-08-20T21:30:13.858-07:00What a timely post this was for me! Thank you for...What a timely post this was for me! Thank you for sharing this as it is something that is very much on my heart. I have been following your blog for a time now and have enjoyed watching you start your married life. It reminds me of our "salad days" and makes me smile. My husband and I will be celebrating our 15th anniversary right after he comes back from this deployment. He is still my best friend and my great love. It took us almost 7 years to start a family and for most of that time I cried my heart out begging for a child. Of course, the Lord's timing was perfect and now we have two wonderful little girls who make our life so joyful. But I will always treasure those first years when it was just us. After we put the kids to bed, we often sit talking and laughing about those days. I guess God knew we needed the peace and quiet to get to know each other completely first so then we could enjoy our little ones when they turned our lives upside down :-) You are quite wise to seek enjoyment of the season of life you are in and not to rush it along. <br /><br />BetsyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-27379754255196714042010-08-20T21:12:26.012-07:002010-08-20T21:12:26.012-07:00I understand my dear all to well!

I will keep you in my prayers. :o)Nabila Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685042701889986697noreply@blogger.com
