How To Be A Better Wife In Christian Marriage

KEY SCRIPTURES: Proverbs 31:10-31; 1 Peter 3:1-4

1 Peter 3:1-4 “Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, 2 when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear. 3 Do not let your adornment be merely outward arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel.  4 rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.”

Going through life alone can be quite challenging so as a good wife, you need to lessen the burden of your husband by making sure the home is a peaceful haven which the husband can always come back to refresh and equip himself to face the world outside. The wife must be there for him in all aspects of life to ease his burden on matters around him. When the wife is supportive of the husband, the husband is encouraged to face the world and he is confident with assurance to tackle life since he has a better helpmeet.
