Ephesians 5:25
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, an gave himself for it;”
This may seem easy when you first read it, but if you really evaluate how we as husbands should follow this Word all the way through. See Christ loved the church so much that he gave himself for it. We as husbands must do the same. You may say to yourselves well I am ready to give my life. “Let her have it.” But what He is calling us to is much harder. See He was able to die and then ressurect, but He is calling us to die while we yet live.
Die to ourselves. Everyday of our lives a little more dies in order to keep the marriage. Today it may be our former lifestyle, tomorrow it could be something else.
5-13-2010: A quote I read today I think is fitting for this topic on marriage.
“The most successful marriages are those where both husband and wife seek to build the self-esteem of the other. . .” Dr. James Dobson; Straight Talk to Men and Their Wives
More to come. But feel free to dialogue at any time.

How you been famo,
Just wanted to say peace, and I’m happy for you.
