I am incredibly grateful to be living my adventure of being a wife. By God's grace, I stumbled upon the book, "The Adventure of Being a Wife" by Mrs. Norman Vincent Peale around 4 years ago. A friend of mine and I were enjoying a very rare evening out at a local bookstore, while our husbands watched our many children. Both of us exhausted (physically, spiritually, & emotionally) we were browsing the marked down, clearance books when one caught my attention:
THE ADVENTURE OF BEING A WIFE, By Mrs. Norman Vincent Peale
I thought, "now there is a DIFFERENT perspective than we hear these days! I want to read that!". Drawing the book from the shelf, I scanned the chapter headings briefly , "study your man, when in-laws become out-laws, ...", POTENTIAL!, I thought. So, I purchased my random book from the clearance bin and that is how it all began!
I am hooked. I have read and re-read this book numerous times. It is full of TIMELESS wisdom of how to live "The Adventure of Being a Wife". I highly recommend it to all young ladies considering marriage, and all ladies who are married. Why should we learn the hard way, when another lady has all ready explained it so simply for us?
I challenge you to buy a copy, they are usually available on AbeBooks.com or Alibris.com for $4.00-$5.50. Compared to $40-$75 /hr for counseling that may or may not help, you can't afford to miss this opportunity to improve your marriage.
Then, if you want, join this blog, and share your experiences implementing these amazing techniques into your marriage. I assure you, they are great. Your marriage is worth it. You CAN live out your commitment, and ENJOY it as you do!
This book is an absolutely incredible read, this is a must read for all women whether you're married, engaged, or single. It truly made a difference of how I view my marriage, and how i interact with my Husband. Whether your marriage is doing great or not so well right now, it can make a difference if you honestly view it for what it is, a guide to make our marriages stronger.
