Ephesians 5:25 (NKJV) 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her…<\/p>\n

As a husband, I want to know that I am pleasing God with the way I behave toward my wife, and the way I treat her.<\/p>\n

It is important that, as men, we learn to be Christlike in our attitudes and our behavior toward our wives.<\/p>\n

God created us as men. We are to be masculine. We are to be their protector. We are to be strong as we lead the home.<\/p>\n

But we are not to be overbearing, controlling, or manipulative to make everything happen the way we want it to happen.<\/p>\n

Jesus gave Himself for us, His bride. He literally laid down His life, surrendering to the will of the Father, that you and I might have life in Him.<\/p>\n

This is our example when it comes to how we treat our wives.<\/p>\n

We lead with strength. But that strength can often be demonstrated in meekness; being willing to give preference where preference is due. And being willing to admit when we are wrong when we know that we are.<\/p>\n

Admitting we are wrong does not make us weak. Every person, whether man or woman, is wrong from time to time. Admitting our faults shows strength. Denying it shows weakness.<\/p>\n

And, men, let us not fall into the trap of being domineering over our wives.<\/p>\n

This, also, is a sure sign of weakness on our part as we mask our insecurities behind booming voices and military-like commands. And it will only cause resentment over time.<\/p>\n

Let us love them genuinely, treating them with the respect they deserve.<\/p>\n

Let us lead as Christ leads His body, with decisiveness, but meekness.<\/p>\n

Let us lead in a way that assures them we would lay down our lives for them, even though that situation may never arise.<\/p>\n

Husbands, love your wives.<\/p>\n
