Husband, treat well the woman whom God has allowed into your life; treat her well and with all the love that the Lord has placed in your heart.
Dedicate every pleasant moment to her, care for her and love her with all your heart, pray for her and bless her always. May that union which the Lord has allowed remain firm, and may the blessings of the Lord descend like rain upon her and her children.
They are not here only to procreate; they are also here to enjoy each of the things that the Lord has created, so that with the good man who has been given to them, they may be taught to smile every day, to have a good and healthy family in the presence of the Lord.
Therefore, men, honor your wives, who are blessed women, full of virtues, blessed indeed; they are good companions and counselors, able to discern when things are not going well at home, when their children are facing difficulties.
Something very important that a man must know is that God granted him the privilege of having a wife just as she is—beautiful and full of courage and love. But it is good for us to see what Ecclesiastes 9:9 tells us:
Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your fleeting life that are given to you under the sun, all the days of your vanity; for this is your portion in life and in the labor with which you toil under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 9:9
The Bible does not make mistakes; everything written in it was inspired by God so that the world might know, from time to time, the Holy Word of the Lord and all the things we should learn.
We can clearly see the counsel the author of this book gives to men: that in everything they do day by day, they should enjoy each day of their lives with the woman they love, the woman who was given by God. Man, fulfill this beautiful command in the name of Jesus.
The marital union as a reflection of the love of Christ
Marriage is not a human invention; it is a divine design. From the beginning, God established that man and woman would be one, sharing life, supporting one another, and walking in unity. When a husband honors his wife, he reflects the love of Christ for His church. Christ did not love with words alone; He gave Himself in sacrifice. In the same way, a husband must be willing to sacrifice for the well-being, peace, and joy of his wife.
Loving one’s wife involves much more than romantic affection. It means caring for her in moments of weakness, listening to her in times of distress, valuing her efforts, recognizing her virtues, and supporting her dreams. A husband who prays for his wife and blesses her with his words builds a strong home where the presence of God can dwell abundantly.
Final words
Dear husband, the woman by your side is not an accident nor a twist of fate. She is a precious gift that the Lord has placed in your hands. Treat her for what she is: a beloved daughter of God, worthy of respect, care, and love. Do not forget that the way you treat her is also a reflection of your relationship with the Lord. Just as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us, so men are also called to love their wives with devotion, patience, and tenderness.
Enjoy your life together with her, share joys, go through trials with faith, and build memories that glorify God. Remember that marriage is a holy covenant, a divine work that must be lived with gratitude and reverence. If each day you choose to love, honor, and care for your wife, you will be obeying God’s command and you will enjoy the promised blessing: a home filled with peace, honor, and abundant life.
