No prob Ray. When I consider Ephesians 5:25, what is it really for husbands to love their wife?
More than just being their provider and supporter. More than just being a life-long companion. Day by day, it's putting your wife's needs and wants before your own. It is loving selflessly.
True example, instead of buying a muscle car to drive on the weekends, you plan a trip for your wife to go home to see her parents whom she may not have seen since getting married.
Instead of going to a family reunion without your wife, the choice is made to stay home since she cannot attend.
For husbands to love their wives, love is shown not in just the obvious actions, but also in choices that are not so obvious.
