Love Does + a Contest

Filed under: from me,to learn — The Generous Wife @ 1:30 am

affiliate: Love DoesI'm currently reading Love Does by Bob Goff. My husband thinks I'm a loon.

I can't stop laughing and, well, the book is totally wrecking me ...

...  and I hope I never recover.

The author shares story after story of how a Jesus-kind-of-love impacted him and changed his way of looking at God and ... everything. (The laughter is because he is an hysterically funny author. I may have wet my pants reading chapter 2.)

I know it's not a marriage book, but it is a life book and a relationship book and a book about the best kind of Love.

At $1.99, for the Kindle version, it's a great deal. So, read the book, get wrecked and have an amazing Love-filled life (with lots of God adventures).

And because we need a contest in the new year, please share "something you love about your husband" as a comment to this post. I will randomly pick a comment on January 21st and give the winner a copy of Love Does (in the format of their choice ~ if they already have a copy of Love Does (cause I know y'all can't wait to get a copy), they can pick a book from the Marriage Book Library instead).

... love is never stationary ... love does.  Bob Goff

    Hi. i got a kindle for christmas so thanks for the book review – just bought it – too easy! My wonderful husband has many assets ;-) that i love. but as this time of year the one i’d pick has to be his love of & skill at cooking – he did a wonderful traditional roast christmas dinner with all the trimmings, and has done all the family meals whilst on annual leave holiday! Im a one-pot lazy cook so its nice to have some delicious meals and snacks…. the best he has served up have been marocan samosas (twice in a week!) and rhubarb creme brulee.

    A few years ago my husband read on the Internet that Chic-Fil-A was offering a free meal if you dressed like a cow for “Cow Appreciation Day.” We love Chic-Fil-A sandwiches!! He downloaded some templates of a cow’s tail, cow spots and a sign that said “Eat More Chicken.” We got dressed up with our two sons (then ages 13 and 9), giggled the whole way to the restaurant (which is in a mall) and had a great time. I still can’t believe we did it! I tend to take life way too seriously and he has a great way of breaking me out of that.

    I love my husbands life of generosity and his love for every one comes across. Some examples of this is the place i work has several aecurity guards he knows each one my name because when he meets each one he takes the time to get their name and spelling of their name and next time he sees them he is sure to call them by name. You would be amazed how many sad faces i have seen cheered up by his special care and a little time he takes to do this. My husband told me his secret it is not that he is great with names but he writes down something that helps him remember each along with their name and he puts it in his daytimer. Also he learns waiters and waitresses names and my husband always gives more than the minimum tip if we do not have enough money to eat and tip well then we have no business going out to eat or more importantly going out and eating inside the restaurant. At least that is our opinion. My husaband is also very generous to me in more ways than i can count. I would love to win the book and laugh so hard i wet my pants but even if i dont win. I am a winner of a very generous precious man of God.

    I love the refreshing perspective my husband can bring to a situation. I can be tired and unable to think of fresh options with the children on some days and he will come in, even after a long day of work, and think of the perfect way to get them engaged appropriately, etc. It’s usually something I know to do and just missed that time around because I got too frustrated, or just his own unique way to handle things. He also brings this refreshing perspective to other areas of our lives also and helps keep me balanced and relaxed.

    I love many things about my husband. He is able to work on and fix cars and do pretty much any home improvement project I can think of. So we have saved a ton of money. he is great with retirement planning. he’s a saver and encourages/reminds me when I should be looking to save rather than spend. He’s a good friend to both me and his guy friends. He is a good cook. He recently was hospitalized with seizures, yet he cares more about me and my health and sanity. We take our dog for wals. But my favorite thing is: while he’s working in the garage, he stops, comes find me to give me a kiss, wiggles his butt in my face to make me laugh then runs away to pretend he was never there.

    I love my husband, Matthew, because he’s my best friend. I can talk to him about anything, and love how he takes time to listen and make me feel special. I also love how he plays with our little toddler boy; rough housing, taking him out to “help” fix the car, reading him stories, and singing goofy songs to him. I love how he dotes on our baby girl and makes her giggle. I love how God’s love shines through him and makes our home happy and secure. I’m a blessed woman indeed!

    I love his generosity. He shops for the kids & I, he gives us gifts all year long, small gifts, bigger gifts. He is always thinking about ways he can bless others, he dreams about giving things away or buying things for people – even things outside our budget that he plans ahead – “One day, I’d love to give ___ a ___, because I think ___ would like it.” I love that he is so thoughtful and generous.

    I love my husband’s commitment to get God’s word out by sending out a daily text which includes a scripture and then a comment to challenge our thinking in our relationship with God. He sends it to multiple people saved and unsaved. It’s simple, to the point and most importantly, it plants a seed. And because he works so hard and so much, he gets up at about 3:30am every day to prepare this text before going to work. Then he sends it out so by the time everyone’s up, there’s a devotion or food for thought from him. He’s so selfless.

    Thanks so much for recommending this book. I downloaded it right after reading your post, and started reading it last night. I had to force myself to stop and go to bed, since I had to get up for work this morning. I was laughing out loud, but the book contains a very powerful message too. I have a feeling I will have to make some changes based on reading it!

    I love that my husband went out of his way to make me a special birthday dinner yesterday for me. I didn’t feel like going out. He let me pick out the movies I wanted to wanted to watch and got to cooking. He made my favorites (after confirming them with me). Brisket, mash potatoes and gravy, and fried okra. He knows I love oreo cookie pie so he ran out to local store and picked one up for dessert. He also spent the day downloading new music for me to workout to. What a man of my dreams!!

    I love that my husband is so introverted. It’s forced me to sometimes be still and quiet, which helps me “be still and know that I am God!”

    I love that my husband is still my best friend. Over the course of soon to be 37 years of marriage, our friendship has grown. I believe that it is through time lived that relationships develope into lives mirroring goals, likes, desires and interests that support and nourish each others. Perfect we are not, but that is what friendships are for. Helping the other through the rough spots or challenges we face in living.

    One of the qualities that I have come to love and appreciate the most in my husband is his determination to be my protector. The pastor mentioned the concept of this at our wedding (how the husband is to give himself for the wife just as Christ gave Himself for the church)& my husband has taken this very seriously. Perhaps a little too seriously at times.

    I love my husband’s sense of humor…I am the more serious one in the marriage and he can usually make me see the funny in everyday things. I am a “stesser” and a “worrier” and he isn’t. He helps me to not be so uptight about things.

    What do I love about my husband? There are many things. He’s usally generous and shares, except when it comes to desserts. When I tell him that I’ll have a bite if his, rather than get my own, he’s quick to remind me I eat more than a bite. If I want some I need to get my own…. lol :D He’s funny and truthful. Now a days, he gets enough for me to have a “bite” or two. I am one blessed gal!

    I love that my husband is an awesome cook and loves to make me meals. He has sooo many things I love about him, it is hard to pick just one! But through the holiday season, he has cooked more then normal and I have worked more then normal. It is so nice to wake up from my sleep to a meal to take to work with me!

    Gosh, what do I love about him? Just about everything!

    1) He does any job that I loathe. And never complains!
    2) He’s available. Our kids can call on him ANYTIME and he makes it happen.
    3) He never misses a chance to tell me HOW GORGEOUS, AMAZING & HOT I am!
    4) He works hard to provide for our family.
    5) He’s generous. Gifts are one of his love languages.
    6) He’s never shocked or weird about any “girl needs” moments. We have 2 daughters who know they can call dad for help with an accident.
    7) He is generous with his love for our kids (3 young adults). They know it.
    8) He is creative and makes things happen.
    9) HE IS SO SMART!
    10) He loves Jesus and has taught our kids to do the same. I love the results.

    I have to stop…but I could totally keep going. I have the BEST HUBBY ever!

    I am going to be married in July 2013 – this year!! Can I still enter? :)
    I love my fiance because he is following the Lord’s will for his life… and somehow, that will led us together, and he pursued me with his whole heart, even when I was unsure and reluctant =D

    I love how great of a friend my husband is, and how funny he is, and how funny he thinks I am. (That was my best attempt at picking one thing I love about him.)

    This sounds ironic since this blog is about generosity, but I love his generosity. He is forever giving to those in need. I would do well to learn from him!

    My husband works very hard for our family. He never gives up even when things are one step forward and two steps back. He says “You have to just keep plugging a long, things will get better again.”

    I love that my husband will at first balk at something, to show that he doesn’t know about something, then he will give in, realizing that it’s the right/smart/fun thing to do. ;)

    I love my Husband’s passion for Christ and how he allows God to use him in so many ways. He takes care of his family without complaints as I continue to be a stay-at-home mom. And he loves ME!!!

    I love my husband because he loves God. That’s enough. Yes, he’s a wonderfully handsome Italian, yes he’s a great father, yes, he’s kind and generous and so much fun with the kids…. But none of it would be enough if he didn’t love God. Being able to share my faith with him is the best thing of all :)

    There are many things that I love about my husband – his work ethic, his passion for the Lord, his love for children, his desire to serve, his love & commitment to me. But the thing that I love the most about my husband is that even in the worst of circumstances and we’ve had our share (5 miscarriages) he has managed to make my heart smile on the darkest of days. He is my hero!

    I love the unconditional love my husband has for me even when I am grouchy and not very lovable. He truly is a gem and loves God and never misses an opportunity to tell others about our wonderful Lord and Savior. He is truly a romantic and always anxious for a kiss.
