Wife Preparation Plan #### Overview A focused, practical plan to prepare your heart, mind, and life for covenant. It combines spiritual disciplines, emotional protection, personal growth, and measurable milestones so you move forward with confidence and peace. --- ### Daily Routine **Morning (20–30 minutes)** - **Scripture and Prayer** (10 minutes): Read one verse from the *Morning Scripture Prayers* list and pray the short application aloud. - **Power Phrase** (1 minute): Speak **“I am prepared, I am whole, I am ready.”** - **Quiet Growth** (10–15 minutes): Read a spiritual or personal‑development passage or listen to a short sermon/devotional. **Midday Reset (10–15 minutes)** - **Boundary Check**: Pause before engaging in relationship conversations or social media. Use the script: **“I’m protecting my peace right now.”** - **Skill Practice**: 10 minutes on a practical skill (communication, budgeting, cooking). **Evening Close (10–15 minutes)** - **Journal**: One paragraph about one thing God did today and one thing you release to Him. - **Seal with Prayer**: Short prayer asking God to guard your heart overnight and to continue preparation. --- ### Weekly Actions - **Sabbath Rest**: One half‑day with no social media or romantic conversations. Focus on worship, nature, or rest. - **Serve**: One small act of service (church, neighbor, mentoring) to cultivate humility and purpose. - **Sharpening Circle**: 60‑minute call or meeting with 1–3 trusted friends for prayer, accountability, and truth. - **Skill Session**: 1 hour weekly on a chosen skill (communication, conflict resolution, financial planning). --- ### Boundaries and Scripts **Digital Limits** - Social media: **15 minutes morning, 15 minutes evening**; mute triggering accounts. - No late‑night messaging about relationship matters after 9 PM. **Conversation Boundaries** - **When drained:** “I can’t talk about this right now; I need to protect my peace.” - **When pressured:** “I’m trusting God’s timing for my life.”
