The Top 5 Reasons Why You Should Love Being Your Husband's Wife...

It is no secret that you sometimes have to remind yourself why you decided to say "I do" to your husband the day you got married. Even if you don't mull over the decision for hours on end, you have to admit, it has crossed your mind.
No? Okay then...
Well, I have most certainly had to stop and wonder why I told God and my husband that I would be his wife for the rest of my life. When that wet towel was left on the bathroom floor, or the garbage wasn't taken out or when he doesn't flush the toilet.
Yes, and yes. Eww....
If you haven't had that one or two moments, allow be to be the first to congratulate you on your recent marriage because I can't believe you've been married for too long. I'm not downing you, but living with another person who is not exactly like you ( or may even be exactly like you) is no easy task. Personalities clash, attitudes manifest, eyes roll and before you know it, you're allowing your mind to wander back to the day he asked and you said sure.
So, before you ponder too hard, let me help you out...

Philippians 4:8

"And now, dear brothers and sisters,

One final thing.

Fix your thoughts on what is true,

And right, and pure, and lovely,

And admirable. Think about things that

Are excellent and worthy of praise."

 



God gave us memories for a reason. Not so that we could harp on the bad, but so that we could remember the good. Let me bring five things back to your remembrance so that you can go on loving being your husband's wife:

1. He proposed to you. Whatever the circumstances now, he loves you enough to ask you to be his wife. He loves you enough to give you one of the few things that he has had his entire life: his name. Most of the men I know don't like to share, so this is big in itself.
2. You like having sex with him. You do. And if you don't, you should. He can still make you feel good and you should enjoy it. God honors it and there's nothing wrong with liking to make love to your husband.
3. He wants you to have the best. You all may have or may be struggling in your finances, but he works to make sure that you have everything you need. He wants you to have everything you want as well. So encourage him in his dreams, because they are your dreams too. And you want to be his support, not the thorn in his side.
4. He makes you laugh. Whether its through being silly or telling jokes, he can put a smile on your face like no other. Let him make you smile more, not scowl.
5. You said yes. Yes, your husband did propose, but you said yes. That means, at the time, you had enough faith in him to know that you wanted to be his wife. You weren't stupid; you were in love. There is nothing wrong with falling in love with your husband repeatedly.

Now, these five are just to get you started, but I'm sure there are more that you can think about. So think about them.
