There has been a steady pattern of relationship books on the market over
the past couple of decades. It's seems as though the trend started with
men and women being from different planets, and it has progressed to
women having to think like men in order to have the type of
relationships that they want.
This fad has done absolutely nothing but get the authors of the books rich, and the women who read them broke and lonely.
Maybe that was a little harsh. My bad...
The reality is, if you are a woman, you need to think like a woman.
And not only are you a woman; you're a wife. Concentrating on what your husband is thinking and trying to get him to do things that you want him to do that way is nothing but
manipulation at its best, or worst, depending on how you look at it.
Manipulation is not of God. it's not positive relationship tactic. It's
ridiculous.
But it did produce a good movie.
As I always say, if you want to learn how to be the wife that you want
the best person to consult is the third fold of the cord that binds you
and your husband together.
"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.
Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not
love does not know God, because God is love." (1 John 4:7, 8 NIV)
God is love. He is the first example that we have of love, and He is the One who shows us how to love.
The books that are being mass produced these days are based on a gross
generalization. They are based on what people think men think. Just like
every woman is different, it is equally the same for men. Men have been
given a bad reputation. They have been labeled as animals, dogs more
specifically. Dogs are scavengers; they sniff out what they want and
scratch around until they can get it.
A man is not a dog; he's a man.
He's not a planet or a fruit or a mineral or a wild animal.
He's a man.
And keeping with this same discovery, he was made in the image and
likeness of our Father God (Genesis 1:26). Your husband was designed
after God, and deserves to be treated as such. He's not someone that
should be manipulated or tricked into doing what you think you want him
to do. He is better than that and so are you! Would you want your
husband reading a book to tell him how to MAKE you the wife that HE
wants?
Of course not!
God designed your husband the way he is and God gifted you to him as a
wife. A helpmeet and companion; not a Jezebel. You are the woman to pray
for him and do what you can to help him be the best him he can be. Not
to change him and trick him into being your puppet.
Let's all remember this a good marriage relationship, or any relationship for that matter, isn't one that is based on lies, games and manipulation. A good relationship is built on a Godly foundation, with a Christ-like attitude and unconditional love. A no-matter-what kind of love.
You don't have to think like a man. You have a man that thinks like a man already. 2 men in your relationship is a whole 'nother conversation. Embrace the woman that you are!
Sooo, Miss Lady, put that book down! Give it back to whomever gave it to
you. It's no good. You're a woman not man. You are meant to think like a
woman.... So think like one!!!
