Some very hard times and some very good ones.<\/p>\n<p>But through it all, our love for each other has grown stronger and we have become more &#8220;one&#8221; as we have walked them out together.<\/p>\n<p>I have learned that marriage is not about the men carrying everything; all the heavy burdens.<\/p>\n<p>The load of a good marriage alone is tremendous, and the heaviness of caring for and nurturing a family is beyond what he can do alone.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve learned throughout the years that when we work together, we are strongest. Between us and God, we will make it through the toughest times.<\/p>\n<p>Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NKJV) 12 Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.<\/p>\n<p>Men, husbands, get tired too. They have their weaknesses, just like all of us.<\/p>\n<p>They need a helper. They need to be loved back and they need to be told now and then how good of a man they really are.<\/p>\n<p>Genesis 2:20-22 (NKJV) 20 So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.<\/p>\n<p>Men, love your wives.<\/p>\n<p>If all you can do at times is love them, continue to do that.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes that is all it takes for both of you to get through tough times; to love each other, encourage each other, speak words of victory.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t criticize or blame each other for being in the situation that you may be in.<\/p>\n<p>No, together you are there. And together you will come out!<\/p>\n<p>Together you will have learned and grown closer than ever, making your relationship that much better.<\/p>\n<p>After 41 years, I am more in love with this man than I was the first day I saw him.<\/p>\n<p>He is my best friend. He knows me better than anyone knows me. He holds me and cares for me. His love for me resembles Christ&#8217;s love. I couldn\u2019t have asked for a better husband than the one God blessed me with for all these years!<\/p>\n<p>Husbands, love your wives.
