Well, QT- quality time is one of my love languages. And, according to other wives that I know, it's a very common love language. This is the love language many wives say they have.
So, prepare for this, husbands. I have some Deep Thoughts regarding this subject I would definitely think you husbands could really take to heart. Do you husbands and your wives argue much about the subject of time?
Perhaps, just perhaps, you two are arguing, about it now? Well, maybe not now this instant. But, maybe you two fought last night or days or even a few minutes and ago?
What? Did I just give you the goosies? Don't look at me! God is the one that put the thought in my head! So, totally God's fault! But, if you think about it? Would you really say that God is negatively at fault?
Maybe, God is providing a way for you to get encouragement from my writing. for the day? Possibly good advice? So, if you look at it that way? Then, don't you guys think God is only doing a good thing?
Did you think more about it? Thank you. I rest my case.
Now, continuing on with the writing for the day! Let me talk to my fellow wives for a minute. Or, who knows? Maybe, there are some husbands out there who are fighting the unknown, just wanting to spend precious time with his wife. Could be. Because why? Say it with me now. 1 2 3 Everyone is different!
So, this goes out to whoever may be reading or listening that needs it. 1st of all,what is a good definition of quality time? Let's ask GA.
I had just asked my GA (Google Assistant) what her definition of Quality Time was. This is what she said. And, if you ask me? I think she gave a pretty "Right On" type of definition.
She said " time spent giving one's undivided attention in order to strengthen a relationship. (QT) is an informal reference to time spent with close family, partners or friends that is in some way important, special, productive or profitable to one or everyone involved. It is time that is set aside for paying full and undivided attention to the person or matter at hand."
Do we know what that actually means? Let me offer my Deep Thoughts. That means when you're having dinner at home or at a restaurant with your spouse.
Other spouse? Now, is not the time to be looking over the shoulder and watching to see if you can catch what the score is on the basketball game. Then, is not the time to watch over their shoulder to try and see who the nominees are for the Grammy to win best actress. And, do not check to see who the winner was? Thanks to the Advancement of our technology nowadays, we can just check it on Google later after dinner if you really are still curious.
Still don't get it? Let me try again. Are the two of you engaging in some personal business together like maybe watching a movie together? First of all I have a tip for you wives. And, that is this. Husbands like shoulder to shoulder contact with his wife. They like to be with us but Not have to talk all the time. So, yeah watching a movie together would be perfect.
Remember no need to check your phone to see texts, emails, facebook, or to finish your game on your phone. This is QT you chose to spend with your spouse.
Folks, do you get it yet? I'm thinking you do because me and GA were pretty descriptive in what was mentioned. So, wanna recap?
~Is your spouse choosing to spend time with you? If so? They need to give you their undivided attention. That means what? No PHONES, No IPADS, No TABLET, basically no device that will take the attention away. I find That is usually an electronic device.
Remember friends, if you are giving them your undivided attention? Expect that in return! You deserve that! If they can't do that? Then, they Never should have said they were gonna spend time with you in the 1st place.
I am pretty sure the other spouse would understand. They. would understand if hey need to reschedule. Please remember if one spouse is giving their total undivided attention? Then, isn't it only fair that the other spouse does the same and give their total undivided attention? Oh yes, I know so! I'm sorry what was That? Yes, I rest my case again. :)
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Hebrews 10:25
Not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart,

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Romans 12:9-13
Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.
John 15:5
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
