Something on my mind lately is about my desires and my husband's desires. My desires are to please my husband. My husband desires to please me as well. This is a simple truth, and it is a normal, built-in truth spouses have for just being in the state of being married.
I do have personal desires that have to do with improving myself. They are desires I believe God has given to me. I believe God gave them to me because He wants me to improve myself. I've wanted to be single-minded in my life. A question, desiring answering to clear up confusion could be: "How can I be single-minded and fulfill my desires and my husband's desires both?
I believe it is possible to do both and still be single-minded. My deep, singled-focused desires are to obey the Lord by obeying my husband. God can still fulfill the desires He gave me to be the person I want to be. My husband knows that I can function better to serve God by obeying him if I am happy and content as the person God wants me to be.
It seemed hard at first, wondering how the two blend together, my desires and my husband's desires, and being single-minded, but my husband is not unreasonable.
