Bizarre Wives
Oct 28th, 2008 by Ben
Have a read of Doing Good to Your Husband, Day 1 and tell me it’s not all a bit bizarre.
Where on earth, other than from Christian wives, would you hear lines like this:
Sometimes when my hubby first gets home from work, I’ll have his favorite snack and a drink sitting by the computer w/ his favorite websites pulled up or I’ll have a bath run for him w/ soft music and a candle going to give him a little time to relax after his hard day!
Well, I have personally found doing good to my husband, is to have sex with him. That always cheers him up.
1.) speak well of him to others (both when he is present and when he is not)
2.) pack him a lunch (and include a tasty treat)
3.) tell him regularly that you are happy you married him
4.) tell his mother how wonderfully he treats you
5.) tell your mother how wonderfully he treats you
6.) forgive him in grace, even when he forgets things that are important to you
7.) regularly tell your kids the things you love about him
Maybe there are places where wives think and act like this, other than in Christian homes, but I can’t think of any.
This is deeply counter-cultural, absolutely bizarre, and brilliant.
