Eph 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. Eph 5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: We are instructed to LOVE our Wife even as CHRIST LOVES the church and gave HIMSELF for it. JESUS gave his life so that we could live and not just live but live an abundant life. GOD wants us as men to LOVE our wives the same way this means we accept the wrong that they do to us no matter how much it hurts just as CHRIST did for us when HE went to the cross for our sake. We are appointed as not only the head of the but also as the Provider, Priest, and Protector so it's our job to make sure they have even if we don't, and if we do have problems with our wives then as the Priest we are to take it to GOD in prayer. We must remember only GOD can change a person's heart. According to Paul 1 Corinthians 7: 1It is better for a man not to marry . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He indicates that is so ONLY if the man has the gift of celibacy and chastity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are doing much better now. Since the big blowout we have had some real good communication, I think we really took a big step down the right path since then.

Guest Kasey777 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 As both a Pastor and a Counselor I am sensing that you and your wife may be experiencing stress in the family...finances, other relatives, work related issues?? Maybe you are both worn out and tired, maybe too many obligations to friends, work, Church...more than needed?? It has been my expiences when these things raise their ugly heads, they have a tendency to "take over" and become a priority...consuming a couple and whole families. My approach is a logical one, without placing blame on your spouse, each of you might "first" look at outside sources of stress. What is going on that gives you both a "short fuse"?? Next I would start eliminating stressors in your lives and marriage....get the playing field a little calmer, quieter...making home the "safe place" for both of you, not a battlefield.... We ALL react to stress in our lives and the majority of us happen to take it out on those who are cloeset to us...not good because they are experiencing much of the same thing. So logically....write it down, what is making you both so "tense"...make sure you express your love for one another and a deep desire to eliminate the "interloper of chaos". Also, did you know that if you use a softer tone, a lower voice about 90% of people will get quiet and actually listen to what you are saying? It's true, so stay calm when discussing problems as much as possible. You will be surprized how that will help your spouse to retreive her calm too.
