Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. ~ 1 Peter 3:7 ESV
I wonder how many husbands believe this passage. Many certainly don’t act as if it’s true. And while it’s not stated in the text, I suspect something similar is true for women.
With that for you to think about, a bit of a tangent. As today is her birthday, I want to honour the woman God gave me. In the early years, I had my share of “God change my wife” prayers. But now I thank God for her daily. My life is so much richer and better because I share it with Lori. She has helped me become who God wants me to be, and blessed me in so many ways.
“Who can find a virtuous woman?”
Me, I did.
~ This is Paul, reminding you that Doing Marriage Well looks different for you than for Lori and me.
The wild roses are blooming!
We live in a beautiful place!
