How To Love The Man You Married Do you love the man you married? What is a priority
in your marriage? Is it doing whatever you want by living the way you want
and getting what you want when you want it?
Or do you and your husband both agree or disagree on
important issues and problems that affect the marriage? When we disregard
our husband’s protection and decisions for us then we are basically
living our own life. This surely doesn’t mean that a husband has the
right to disregard his wife’s feelings either and do whatever he wants.
It works both ways. Do You Reject Your Husband's Feelings
When we get married, we’re not daddy’s little
girl anymore. Well we are, but we now have a new responsibility-to be a
good wife to our husbands. When we get married our life is now with our
husbands. Most men want to be respected for their position as the man in
the marriage. Loving your man is regarding him with respect and reverence
just because he is your husband. I do realize there are many good wives out there who
treat their husbands with respect, but I think there are just as many who
don’t. Loving the man you married is not about getting your way all the
time. It is not rejecting your husband sexually or in any other way. Just
because a woman doesn’t feel like having sex doesn’t mean she should
deny her husband. This works both ways too. Are You Respecting the Man You Married?
Respecting the man you married is not constantly
nagging and complaining to him over minor issues and circumstances going
on around the home because you feel the need to control or have power over
him. Some wives do this often and don’t even realize they are doing it.
Husbands don’t even realize this is happening. Then we wonder why our
man strays from the marriage. Is it because we are devaluing our man’s
position in the marriage? I should think so. When you feel yourself wanting to gain some aspect of
control over certain issues, stop and ask yourself, “Is this really
worth arguing with my husband over”? Take a deep breath and relax.
Understand that there are, and will be, many, many things you do not have
control over. The more we believe that we can change something to fit our
needs better, the more we get disappointed when nothing changes. What Can You Change In Your Marriage?
We must have the understanding and wisdom to know
“what we can change”, and the courage to change only those things that
we can actually change. I
know for a fact that we can change our own attitude and we can change
circumstances that we have created. We can influence our
husband’s in a loving, humble way, but this doesn’t mean to control
them or change them. There is
a difference. Marriage is not that difficult when we learn
to let our spouse just be. We really ought to worry more about what
we are doing that could be detrimental to the marriage relationship rather
than watching the faults of each other. Loving the man you married is about taking the time
to understand his feelings. Letting him talk about how he feels, even if
he is being vague about those feelings. He wants to trust you and he wants
the assurance that he can trust you with his feelings. Husbands can be
vulnerable too, especially if his feelings have been belittled, scoffed or
denounced in the past by his wife. Can he trust her? Treating your man
this way is a sure-fire way to get him to clam up on you. If You Are Married To A God-Fearing Man
Give Him The Reins
Loving the man you married is giving him the reins
for a while and letting him steer the boat. No real man likes to be the
back seat passenger in his own boat. Let your husband lead the boat to
where he wants to take it. How about not bickering and negating your
man’s feelings. Learn to trust the man you married. Give in for the sake
of “giving in” and for respect and love. If you are married to a God-fearing man you shouldn’t feel intimidated handing over the reins to him. The truth is there are more than 101 ways to love the man you married and you only need to practice one way to be a loving wife the rest of the 100 ways. And that is to respect, in every way, the man you married. See the companion article to this article. How To Love The Woman You Married How To Love The Woman You Married God created the sexes equal and yet they each have
different temperaments, personalities, and behaviors that compliment one
another. The best way to love the woman you married is to understand
those differences. Your wife likes it when you express your feelings to
her, rather than keeping your feelings bottled up.
She wants details from your heart and mind, not curt yes and no
answers. You’re not with the guys anymore when you come home from work. A woman feels closer to her man when he talks about
himself and can openly discuss issues within himself. Tell her what is
bothering you. Don’t hold stuff in and get resentful over it. Emotional
and psychological infidelities are caused from the lack of emotional
intimacy between couples. Always keep the communication lines open between
you and your wife. This will keep the marriage intimate and active. When
couples stop talking, that’s when to start worrying. I don’t care how long you have been married your
wife still wants to hear the words “I love you” every single day. Many
wives want to be held by you for at least one full minute every single
day. She wants to be “shown” your love for her by your manly
protection of her. Do not be intimidated to exert your God-given headship
position in the marriage. That is what God made you for. This is actually
the proper way to love and care for the woman you married. Be her man so
she can be your woman. God gave the male sex the instinctive ability to be a
protector of women and children. The captain always goes down with his
ship, or is the last one off the ship. Where are you in your marriage?
First or last? You should put your wife’s well being above yours.
You’re the captain and she is your first mate. Your buddies, your work,
your sports, or your parents are not your first mate – your wife is. When a man puts his own Captain first in his life he
will not have any problems respecting and loving his wife in the ways that
are meant for him to love her. In marriage there will be some days when
your wife may get overly emotional, dramatic, cranky, or talkative. So
what! Let her be. Don’t put her down by telling her she is emotional.
Grin and bear it instead. Are you the captain of your ship? Don’t take your wife’s emotions personally.
Usually all she really needs is your understanding and support of her
feelings. Give her a back massage and take the kids for the day. And
remember that a woman’s hormones tend to get a bit wacko during
ovulation and “forty something” women may behave more emotional than
normal because of perimenopause. This I know for a fact. The herb called Black
Cohash works great for this, by the way ladies. Call your local health
food store and see if they have it, or you can buy it online. It really
works on the temperament. Make your wife the center of your attention. Make her
feel important in your life every single day. Always communicate your
thoughts, ideas and feelings with the woman you married. Yes, women can
get emotional sometimes, work with her, accept it and move on. Be completely humble and gentle, be patient bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. (Ephesians 4:2-3) How I lost 3-Inches In 3 Days I want to share something amazing with you. What
I’m about to tell you will seem unbelievable but it is very true! This
is not about losing weight but about losing fat and cellulite, which is
losing inches. This fantastic product is called Ultimate Body Wrap. It
is safe and easy to use with natural botanicals as its ingredients. Do you want to reduce the signs of cellulite? The Ultimate Body Wrap can do all that! Below
is my personal testimony of how the body wrap worked for me, and how I
lost 3-inches in just three days. You can also lose inches, body fat and
cellulite in just three days! When my friend first told me how I could lose fat
cells from applying a cloth with some lotion on it onto my belly, I was
skeptical and I laughed in her face. But she kept pestering me to try the
body wrap. Just so I could tell her “see I told you it wouldn’t
work”, I begrudgingly complied. And am I glad that I did! My Testimony Using Ultimate body Wrap March 30, 2009 -- 7:00 pm: I first measured my
midriff, belly and hip area. I applied the wrap. I logged my measurements
on a piece of paper. I marked my side with a felt pen so I would know
exactly where I put the tape measure. I knew that I would be measuring my
stomach area again just to show my friend that this stuff really doesn’t
take inches off. I placed the wrap over my midriff and then wrapped a
piece of cellophane around me to hold the wrap in place. It felt tingly and cool against my skin. It also smelled
really good, like eucalyptus. The tingling lasted for about an hour but
continued to feel cool and soothing on my skin. March 30, 2009 – 9:00 pm: After two hours I took
off the wrap and massaged the remaining herbal lotion into my skin.
My stomach felt tighter and smoother. I measured myself and
couldn’t believe what I was actually seeing. I was almost two inches
smaller! I was shocked to say the least. I jumped up and down with joy.
Even my husband got excited over this stuff and that is a miracle. March 31, 2009 – 10:00 am: The next morning I
measured myself again and I lost another half inch. “How can this be”,
I say to myself? “I’m not even wearing the wrap any longer”. Well,
after reading more about this product I realized that the botanicals,
which I will talk about in a minute, are still working together to shrink
fat cells! The herbs work in your system for up to 72 hours afterwards! April 1, 2009 – 9:30 am: The next day, I measured
myself again and I lost another inch of fat off my belly area! And now I
am here to tell you about this powerful poultice that when applied to your
skin will actually reduce fat, cellulite, and inches. It is unbelievable! If I didn’t firmly believe in this product, I
wouldn’t be writing about it. But the Ultimate Body Wrap is an
awesome product. It is very safe to use because it only uses natural
botanicals. It will really make you lose body fat and inches! Measurements
don’t lie. Not only that, but it expels toxins from the lymphatic
system, making you feel refreshed and rejuvenated for days. How Does The Ultimate Body Wrap Work? In a nutshell, the wrap is composed of botanicals
that work to break down stored fat cells and release toxins. When the
herbs are combined together they work on the lymphatic system, which
allows for toxins to be released through body elimination. The tingling sensation you will feel on your skin
while wearing the wrap are the herbal properties working through your
pores into blood vessels and capillaries, releasing toxins and breaking
down fat. The Ultimate body Wrap works on your skin just
like an herbal poultice would. It is advised to drink lots of water while
wearing the wrap and 72 hours afterwards to ensure efficient release of
toxins. Most of the herbs
used in the wrap are anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, skin toners, and cell
regeneration promoters. You can see all of the ingredients in the wrap by
going to my website. I know that herbs are powerful healers because I have
studied, grown and used herbs for years. So is it any wonder that when we
apply such powerful herbs on our biggest organ, the skin, that we would
see and feel results almost immediately? I would strongly consider the Ultimate Body Wrap
to be a simple but mild form of liposuction. Now you don’t have to have
dangerous, evasive surgery done when you can safely do the very same thing
for yourself using nature’s cupboard, and for a fraction of the cost! The “do it yourself” body wrap is a must have for
anyone who wants to experience the power of herbs going to work on their
body. A healthy body means healthy attitude. The Ultimate body Wrap
when used in conjunction with a wholesome diet and exercise will make your
feel good about the way you look. You are your body’s best friend -
treat it well. Because I have used this product and loved the results I can absolutely guarantee that you will love it too. But watch out! It can become addicting. I would be thrilled to answer any questions you may have about this product.

Ask Angie Ask Angie: I've been married for 31 years and for the last 25 years my husband has had affairs after affairs and I just found out he has been seeing his sister's ex-husband's wife. I've decided to divorce him. There is no other way because I've tried to get him help and it only lasted for a minute. This has affected my children who are grown. I believed in what the WORD says but enough is enough and I've ask God to help me. Why do you think women in my case stays with who have affairs? Answer: Women stay with men who continually commit adultery probably in the hopes he will stop cheating or financially they are afraid to make it on their own or don't want to make it on their own. It is really sad for the spouse who continually gets trespassed upon by an adulterer...as I have said before it is just like an addiction and should be treated as such. If your spouse continually commits adultery it is because they have no connection with their Creator. Basically, you're married to an unbeliever. Please read through these articles for hope and encouragement. Married To An Unbelieving Spouse Divorce According To God And The Sanctity of Marriage The Unbeliever Who Wants A Divorce May God bless!
