—1 Corinthians 13:7
Funny episode of All in the Family on tv last night. I don't recall ever seeing it before, or ever seeing Mike treat Gloria with such callousness. It was a stretch of his character to say the least so I knew they were setting something up. He insisted a food allergy was all in her head. He was so adamant about it that he forced her to eat the food. He was so sure he was right he was willing to put her in danger.
We'd never do that. We'd never insist, demand or require anything that wouldn't be the absolute best for our wives. Would we?
How about allow? Would we allow anything into our marriage, on our tv or computer or in our home that wouldn't protect her?
As priest of the home you're in charge of protecting a lot more than the life of your wife. You must protect her honor, her heart, her security, her confidence, her spirituality, her reputation - yes, even a married woman needs to have her reputation protected by her husband.
TODAY’S DARE
Remove anything that is hindering your relationship. Remove any addiction before it destroys your intimacy. Remove any influence that’s stealing your affections and turning your heart away from her or that would draw her away from you. Protect her from losing you. Be her champion.
