KEEP THE HONEYMOON GOING

Proverbs 5:18 says, “Let thy fountain be blessed and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.”

Ecclesiastes 9:9 says, “Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life… for that is thy portion in this life.”

God desires our homes to be Home Sweet Home. We must never take our wife and family for granted. Unfortunately, this is too often the case.

I find too many men are far too matter of fact, mundane, and in fact, boring. We must never allow ourselves to sink to just plain predictable monotony! Whatever it took to get your wife to marry you is pretty much what it takes to keep her living with you for the rest of her life.

She is as beautiful as you make her!

Godly men should be the most positive of all men. We have so much to be positive about, especially with the Lord on our side. We need to be more alive and more like fresh air to our wife and family. We need to sing more, smile more, calm down, and relax more. We need to be glad more, even for the privilege of being a husband and father.

We need to eulogize our wife much more than ever, as well as each member of our family.

If we men will brighten up our corner, pretty soon, others will get the message and brighten up too.

Be encouraged to continually brighten up your home. Colin
