Do You Have a Sweetheart?
“For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”
Matthew 19:5

Ponder This
Today’s message is for the men. If you don’t love your wife more now than you loved her when you got married, you probably love her a lot less.
Sir, I want you to learn to flirt—but not with any other woman. Just the girl you married! Keep that flirtation going through all of your life. Never call the waitress “sweetheart.” She’s not your sweetheart. You have only one sweetheart. Never call someone else “dear.” She’s not your dear. There is one who needs to know beyond any shadow of a doubt that she is your sweetheart, she is your darling, and she is number one. Develop that love and keep it growing.
Practice This
When was the last time you brought your wife flowers or her favorite perfume? Stop right now and think of how you’re going to show your wife that she’s the only sweetheart in your life.

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
