The other day I caught myself talking about something I had planned to do (life got crazy and my plans got shelved).

Life happens. In one sense, no big deal. At that point, though, I had to get serious about whether it was something I was really going to do.

Intention is not the same thing as action.

This is an important point when it comes to marriage. Our husbands only benefit from what we actually do. Talking about something and then not following through can discourage and hurt.

What have you been talking about recently? Can you make that happen sometime this week?
