A few weeks ago I drove 14 Hours to a Promise Keepers event in San Diego, Ca. It was well worth the trip. Approx.: 160 men made a commitment to Christ, to be Better Husbands, Father’s and Men. Just as a lot of others did during the other 4 PK events I was Blessed to attend. As these Men went down to the front , It made me realize how many there are, wanting and willing to make a difference. So many men are addicted to Porn, Drugs and / or Alcohol. They hide their little (or should I say) Big secrets… They feel embarrassed, worthless or that they can’t possibly make a difference. Nothing could be farther from the Truth. There is Freedom in Christ! How do I know? Because I was once there… NOT Anymore. The Weight and the Chains of the past are All Gone. Life is so much better now. I AM a Better Husband,Father and Man of God.
I have heard time and time again, that all wives want are Husbands that can Lead. Strong, Courageous Leaders for their Families. Wives want security as well.
A Husband who Cares
A Savings account
A Husband who shows interest in what his wife is saying.
A Husband who has His Priorities straight
Here is My take on it and how I think My wife sees it.
1. Spiritually Strong
Praying With and For My Wife. Leading My Wife and Family that is Honoring to God.
2. Mentally Strong
Looking to God for Guidance, No matter what comes My way.
3. Financially Strong
Giving God at Least 10% of my income, more if at all possible
Financially Helping Others ( Widows and Orphans Especially ) Whenever possible
4. A Healthy Savings Account
Reduces a Wife’s stress level
Keep in mind, A listening ear is Very Important. My Wife and I often here “ He never listens “ We as Husbands Always Hear our wives, But rarely “ Listen” to what they are saying. All they (Wives) want is a “ Listening “ ear…. And IF We don’t, They WILL find someone who Will.
In conclusion, I learned Long ago to apply what I have mentioned. Life is Better and My Marriage is Better for it.
Try implementing them, Things Will Change.
