Though, i am yet to be married but hope so soonest God's willing because of what the Bible says in Songs of Solomon 3:4 and count it a privilege when my married friends share their experience with me. A friend of mine was disappointed when he told me that his wife don't seem to know how lucky she is. That, though he is young and handsome he doesn't womanise like others, get back home straight from work, does his best to sustain his home financially and yet his wife gives him an attitude. With the rate at which he praised himself over and over again on this noble virtues of his, I sensed the problem might be that he felt he his doing a favour to his wife. At that point I was quick to refer him to Luke 17:7-10 which says Luke 17:7-10 "But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat? And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink? Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not. So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, we are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do". Then I asked him a pertinent question that says "Bros, no vex; what is your standard; the world? or the Bible? I was happy that he understood my point, that is not to say that I support ladies who don't appreciate their husbands effort to be a good family man. In fact, I hate it. Yet, I know that he will soon share a testimony of a restored cordial relationship once again with his wife. Good morning and happy weekend.
