The Examined Life II

After I have addressed my relationship with God, I have another relationship to address.

The Bible says that, "He who finds a good wife, finds a good thing." But it also it also says in 1 Peter 3:7:

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.

Finally, it says, "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her". Look at the majesty and weight of that last verse. What greater important responsibility can we have than to imitate the Savior?And that responsibility is linked to my marriage.

So next, I dedicate my attention to leading, loving and protecting my wife.
