Ah-ha!!! I get it...Tigershark...now I see why my hubby has such a hard time picking up the bible and reading it or talking about it....stay with me here and I'll try to explain :t2:

To him the bible is like asking for directions to find your way through life.....and we all know that men can't stop and ask for directions!!! :crazy:   This must go back to the ego thing Tiger was talking about....so now I just have to learn how to get him to read the biblical road map so to say...when we are on the road and we get "lost" (mind you lost is me talking not him)...I will fake a pottey break and go in and ask where to go....Ah I am not fooling him anymore on this one though but it seems to be a game he likes to play when we get lost on a trip.

So I will just keep slipping in Gods word and light to him when there is an opening and maybe he will absorb more and more everyday....I know Tiger is right about shoving information down a mans throat...can't be done...they clam up tighter than a drum...so quiet prompting is what I will keep doing...

Thank you Thank  you Tigershark!!...everyone is right a mans point of view does help!!!

Love and Blessings

Angels,

we were posting at around the same time so I didn't see your post until now....your hubby sounds like mine alot...mine had trouble showing his feelings too...but I found through the 10-11 years we've been married (gee don't tell my hubby I dont have the exact number of years) that he doesn't usually vocalize his feeling either...but he does show them...when he says thank you for dinner...when he helps move something in the house...when he plants me a tree in the yard...or when he hooks up a new post light for me by the porch...when he says hey I'll watch the kids so you can go shopping...when he brings me lunch at work...when he sets up a date for a alone night for us...when he helps with the laundry...

See what I mean...they seem to think that them physically doing something for us shows us how much they care...but we as women being a sensitive bunch like to hear words...I had to kinda reprogram myself to see his actions as "words" see where I am getting at?...ok he sets up alone night for us gets my parents to take the kids and cleans the house up and goes and rents movies (usually action ??? ) I know when he does this is he saying I love you as much as I did the first day I married you and I want to stay with you forever....I guess its kind of a mans code...but we have to learn how to decode thier signs of affection.

Hope this helped you...

All my love and lots of Blessings

Angel H.

Hi Refugepas,

This must be a man thing, it goes the same in our house, I picked up on that long time ago too, but its not the same as telling that  you care....if he doesn't care (I quesss ,he just doesn't do things around the house, I picked up on that too.)

I still think its not right, we do things the whole day and do our husbands pick up on all we do? Or is it expected?

Can we express our love to them by what we do for the family? It is disappointing by times ,don't you think?

I still think its an easy way out for a man (not to be mean) :noidea:  :noidea:

Angels....very very disapointing...yes...I have had many sighs and tears shed on this one...and hopefully maybe one day they will get it...but alot of them don't seem to...I see your point I really do...I guess I just got used to it and see it in other things he does....hopefully thats what hes meaning to relay to me....

very very confusing men are...they need to be more like women....we can say what we mean and say it clearly but to them you would think we are speaking a foriegn language!!

Love and Blessings

If I can say something yet again, most men will not say what they feel, but they will do what they feel.  Like the examples above. lights, dinner, watching kids,etc., etc. understand something we are horrable about talking about how we feel, half the time we ourselves don't know how we feel. "feeling are beyond our description many many times, but we do know how to show how we feel, dinner, lights, watch kids, etc., etc. so remember that he is saying in his way that he knows that he loves his women.  Those are the times that he is reaching out with the way he knows and feels comfortable with.

If you want more then show how much what he does means, then he will be willing to slowly move further and further from his shell.  But he will not budge if he feels pushed to uncomfortable ground.  Set a time and let him know that what he does is important, do not invalidate his actions, and that you to like it when things happen for you, but that words mean something too, and he needs to remember that.

The men are cringing or remaining suspiciously silent.  Hey guys back me up or tell me I am wrong.

Tigershark, have you gone from lawyer to marriage counsellor? :noidea:  :noidea:  :rofl:  :rofl:

Just kidding.  I spoke with my husband today about this thread, and he is in full agreement with what you have said.  You make a lot of sense.

Traveller:  Have you noticed that Tigershark's signature is rather apropos for the men not posting here? : ""From deep within closed lips rose a moan, too hopeless or too heroic to speak in pain".

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
