Loving your husband is yet another one of your roles as a wife (2)

Kindness and subjection to a husband should always be taken to heart and practised.

The husband is a human being who needs to experience kindness from his spouse. All this will help to build a self-confident, successful and loving husband. Read 1 Corinthians 13: 4 – 7.

Loving someone demands patience when confronted with a situation in order to respond or react accordingly. One has to be kind when approaching a loved one in speech and actions and should not envy the spouse because it brings with it a spirit of competition which does not feature well in a marriage set-up.

Boasting is not a welcome behaviour, but with a humble heart, receive the God given achievements. Pride has always destroyed good relationships with others and it goes along with arrogance and rudeness.

We must learn to control our anger not have outbursts for no apparent reason. Even though the reason might be a valid one. A wife should not be a reminder of her husband of the things he did wrong sometime back.

One has to protect one’s spouse in speech and in action. Don’t become a slave of yourself by always not trusting what your spouse has said. Keep hoping for the better.

With genuine love, one is able to do as the other demands. Out of love, good and appetising meals are cooked and served and the home is well taken care of. Love covers a multitude of sins and lets life sail through. Love is the most important ingredient for a good, healthy marriage and family.
