Why Can’t He Remember to Put His Shoes Away?

This morning, as I was straightening up the house before going to my office, I noticed Cerwin’s shoes on the kitchen floor.

“Why can’t he remember to put his shoes away?” I inwardly grumbled as I bent over to pick them up.

The moment I had them in my hands, God reminded me to praise Him for the man who wears them.

~~~ 

Cerwin is a “Psalm 1” man, and I am blessed because of his godly character…

He has never walked in the counsel of the wicked
nor stood in a place with sinners.
Sitting with mockers is not something he would consider.

His delight is in the Word of God,
and he meditates on it every day.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water, 
which yields its fruit in season 
and whose leaf does not wither. 
Whatever he does prospers.

Added to that…

He has always been faithful to me and our children.

He is kind, funny, talented,

and my best friend.

He loves me and would do anything for me

…except put his shoes away on occasion. 

I am so very blessed!
