Husbands, love your wives

Guys, there are time when you need to romance your special someone. I am not talking about just on Valentine’s Day; I am talking about every moment of every day. Did you know that a little gesture, a touch, a brush by or even a glace with a glint in your eye is something that makes your relationship exciting. An unexpected kiss or a massage or just sitting listening is something that guys fail to see as relevant.

You did a lot of these types of things when you were courting her, after the marriage is seemed to fade, why did it have too? Well I will tell you this... it doesn’t have to. It takes work, but doing that work and making your relationship as special as that first kiss or as exciting as the wedding night can be done. You have to be willing and you have to keep your eyes averted from things that distract you.

Looking at your wife with a look of love gives her that satisfaction. Make her feel that special feeling that she had when you asked her to marry you. Remember how that felt? You can have that same feeling all the time with your spouse.

Let me ask you this guys; if your day of work how many times do you think about your wife? When you think about her is it good? Or is it a complaint you have in your head about her? If you have things unresolved with her your thoughts a likely not good. If you have a great relationship and you have a trusting relationship then your thoughts of your wife are most likely good. Getting home after work and seeing her with anticipation on finding out how her day was, listening to her and just loving her goes farther than any flower. (Now don’t take that wrong, Bring her flowers or whatever you want, but not as an apology but as a gift of love).

You know when I think of my wife Lorie, I think what a BLESSED guy I am to have such a beautiful woman love me the way Lorie loves me. I feel a love inside that is excited to see her and to hold her.

You may think I have it perfected, well I do not. I mess up regularly and have to grovel like the next guy, (I think I have to find another word for SORRY). But you know if your relationship is built on trust and you have a godly foundation that sorry won’t be the end all. And dont use "Sorry" as a scapegoat for justification of what you have done, but mean it with your whole being.

You need to say to each other every day I LOVE YOU and mean it, don’t just make it as a phrase that doesn’t mean anything, kind of like someone you haven’t seen in a while and you do the old “how are you” when you really don’t care. With your wife you need to make sure you mean what you say, and not make it just another meaningless term

Ephesians - Chapter 5:25-33
25. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
26. to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27. and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
28. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church-
30. for we are members of his body.
31. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
32. This is a profound mystery-but I am talking about Christ and the church.
33. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself...

Just remember guys and I am Yelling this.

YOUR RELATIONSHIP TAKES WORK AND GUYS ARE YOU AFRAID OF A LITTLE WORK?

Have a great day loving your wife.
