Husbands, the home is the woman’s domain, her kingdom, the world where she governs by affection and gentleness. There is nothing in life that settles the masculine drives of a real man, like that of a real lady in his house; one whom he can proudly introduce to his friends, as “My Wife!!” It is in her that he will find peace and contentment in life; and an urgent reason to come home after work to be met by her beauty and embrace. With such a lady, he will also find support in his endeavors, encouragement in his times of weakness: and strength to carry on despite his failings, even when he is apt to go wrong.
The true wife is an ornament in the life of a good husband, one who is there to offer sympathy, and comfort in times of trouble. One who in youth is always the faithful partner, and the one who will be there to accompany him through the later years of life, to give him reason for living life to the fullest..
Marriage is to be a blessing that God intended it to be, has some fundamental laws that must always be obeyed. It should not be entered in to blindly, and without long and proper consideration. It requires deep and careful study to see and accept these laws for marriage. Here are a few, but others need be sought out.
- No young man has the right to ask a young and innocent woman to marry him until he is acquainted with the characteristics of the female gender. The real woman wants a real man, the strong, the resolute man who knows what life is all about and is willing to face it responsibly. She can never truly give herself to a wimp, and a sissy she cannot respect and of whom she is not proud to call her husband.
- The woman wants a husband that will provide for her the needs of life. If the man wants a wife whom he inserts in to the market place to provide him with a level of living he desires, he needs to marry a horse, not a lady. God did not give her to you to become a source of income for you, but love and to cherish.
- The number one need in a woman’s life is the need for security. Man, if you cannot provide that, stay single: you have not grown up yet. Man, if you do not know how to gratify and satisfy the woman’s number one need, and she has to work outside the home so you can live above your means: how shall she find comfort in your love making.
- Know this, for a man to merely be content when his sexual satisfaction is complete, without her having reached climax, will soon drive her away from the marriage bed and into depression.
- Every man should know that the woman, the wife God has given him, is His GRINDSTONE: the utensil He intends to use to grind you and shape you, and mold your life into what He wants you to be, or to become. The same is true for the wife. When you get on each other’s nerves, and bug each other, it is God’s grindstone sharpening the ax of life into a utensil fit for His service. Get used to it, accept it, and accept your mate, as they are, not for what you would like them to become: and God will bless your marriage.
- The woman needs know that even a real man is a bit of a phony. He exudes his masculinity to all who will listen; but underneath it all is a vein of tenderness that he hides from all but a wife whom he adores and seeks to please. If she is ignorant of this, then she will not know how to supply his needs and meet the calls of nature.
- The real key to a happy marriage is allowing Christ into your marriage from the first. To do so you must come to the end of the Me Me life of the past, and consider the other first before your own needs or desires.
- Man, God wants to be so in your life that He can use your mates fleshly resources to cause you to stop reacting to every tempting bit of fluff that comes down the street.
- Never expect more of marriage than you are willing to put in to it. Too many do and quickly become disappointed with each other and life itself. Do not look for anything approaching perfection, look in the mirror, you did not achieve that either. Remember it is often the imperfections in life that cause us to sympathize and appreciate each other. Even the most charming and adorable pf persons have their weaknesses. It our willingness to forbear each others infirmities, that makes the home a delightful place, and the marriage a joy-filled experience.
- Remember, marriage will never be what you expected it to be: it will only be what you make of it. It can be the source from which can radiate all the glories and joys life can hold for us. It can also be the source from which the deepest cares are generated. The joys of the wedding morning are soon displaced by the anxious cares of the daily life. If it entered into understandingly, lived thoughtfully, and practiced patiently, it just may turn out for the best. If this is so, then no matter how good it may begin, the best is still to come.
