LOVE AND RESPECT

All couples are unique and must together find the best way to allocate responsibilities and roles. On the other hand men and women on a group level seem to have two basic needs. Paul points it out at the end of his teaching on marriage in Ephesians 5. Love and respect.

The man is encouraged to love his wife as himself. She needs to feel loved. The grumpy - ”I’ll let you know if anything changes” simply isn’t good enough. As a husband you’re prompted to make your wife feel special, beautiful, unique and loved. She needs to hear it, feel it, notice it and be reminded throughout life.

The woman is encouraged to respect her husband. He needs to feel respected. If you as a wife constantly turn to you father or brothers for advice or help, your husband will feel sidelined and unwanted. Encourage his strengths, ask for his help and don’t compare his weakness to other man's strength.

The husband are to speak to, encourage and bring forth the queen in his wife meanwhile the wife should appeal to the king in her husband. If we speak to a boy it's what we get.

Have you made your partner feel loved and respected lately?
