ENCOURAGING YOUR WIFE TO BE CONTENTED IN THE HOME, NO. 3.
3. Show gratefulness for all the menial tasks your wife performs in the home.
I believe it would be most difficult for a woman who receives complements from the workforce to come home to educate the children, perform all the menial tasks of homemaking, receive no payment or money, and then not even any gratefulness or complements from her husband.
Everyone needs encouragement and home-making mothers who are diligently raising the next generation need it most.
The enemy of the home makes sure that working women are praised in the work place, the media, and also the church where unthinking pastors, whose wives are out of the home, make sure the corporate woman is praised.
But, God sees the mother at home who sacrifices her life to raise the nation's future leaders. These are women who believe that God did not give them their children to be raised in day care systems or unruly state schools, but rather in the home. As the mother lovingly cares for their children, God praises her the most (Proverbs 31:28-31). So should you!
