No Husband Left Behind
HIM & HER — Together (on the Same Page)
[Bible]
Supporting Your Virtuous Wife
“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.” (Proverbs 31:10-12)
Her value and worth:
As your loving “other half”, your wife should be viewed as very expensive (maybe even priceless). When was the last time you looked at your dear wife as an outstanding investment in to your “shared” marriage? She has so much which she naturally brings to the table, and you will hopefully begin to realize that right now (if you have not already). She is your life partner, sharing all which our Heavenly Father has entrusted in to your care. What specifically can you think of where your wife provides “value” to your life?
Her husband trusts her:
Wow, how many men (even within the Christian community) can sit back at ease knowing that she is able to be “trusted” at all times? The reality is that “trust” has to be earned. This usually takes some time … becoming friends, dating to get to know each other, engaged to begin building that trust, and then married to enjoy the benefits of loving and caring for each other for life. How well do you really trust the love of your life? Are you willing to accept the reality that any woman who has a heart for our Lord Jesus will love her husband also?
Her life commitment:
This incredible life partner of yours is committed to providing you “good and not evil”, for as long as our Creator gives her breath. She is utilizing every component within her being to build a relationship with you that will glorify God in Heaven, and set an awesome example for other women to follow (within their own marriages). You will prove to be a very wise man if you see your primary purpose within marriage as the one selected to provide and protect this precious daughter of God. Be sure not to let Him down. So, what are you doing right now to support this valued, trusted, and committed woman in wanting to stay with you for life?
From one who forever remains…
