I Finally Finished...

My mother-in-law gave me this book "why should i be the first to change?," although it should be "why i should be the first to change," when Ian and i lived in Colorado, so almost 3 yrs ago, and i never quite finished it. I read about half way through and stopped reading it, like i do most books. But i finally read through it all the way. It was a great book and i would recommend all married women read it, whether your going through hard times are not. She shows you that when your not living as Christ loved, self sacrificial, your marriage can become all about pride, or all about you. How much of our fights or nagging is in thought of wanting our husbands to become the men we desire? But are we as women, through the strength of our Lord Jesus Christ (since we obviously cant do it on our own), becoming the wives our husbands desire? I speak to myself as i say this b/c i struggle with this constantly but the first part in making changes is first recognizing them and this is what Nancy Missler has done in "Why should i be the first to change?"
