A Challenge to Husbands
Are you:
neat,
loving,
gentle,
kind,
polite,
considerate,
patient,
responsible,
hardworking?
Are you your wife’s dreams come true?
Okay, well, if not now, were you earlier in your marriage?
What about a critical self-assessment of the above? Rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being awful and 10, wonderful. Then prayerfully begin to work on all areas and purpose to move the numbers up. If you are really serious, ask your wife to rate you. May we make it easy for our wives to love us.
Material gifts are nice and not to be neglected, but could the best gift be a dad who is seeking to grow in the Lord Jesus and be easy to love and respect?
“Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband” (Ephesians 5:33). “That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children” (Titus 2:4).
