tips for women

Tips for the women in the house:
1) Let him know you believe in him. This will
empower him to achieve his dreams. You made
him feel that he was more special than anyone or
anything else, before marrying. Work to help him
see that again.
2) Accept your husband for the man he is, instead
of wishing you could change this or that. (Stop
concentrating on your spouse’s faults (this makes
them look even bigger than real life). Instead,
work on your own. Take the “log”out of your own
eye, as the Bible says to do in Matthew 7:5.)
3) Help him be a hero to his kids. Speak well of
him and the good things that he does. (You are
God's choice for being your husband's
cheerleader, when it comes to your husband.
(And the same goes for him.)
4) Appreciate the things he does —like making
repairs around the house. (Even if he doesn't do
them well —at least he's making the effort —
which is more than a lot of husbands will do.)
5) Let him spend time with the guys doing “guy”
things (unless those "guy" things compromise the
integrity of your marital relationship).
6) Respect his right to need some space
sometimes. It doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you.
7) Stop asking him to throw out his torn, faded
jeans. What you hate about them is what he loves
about them. [Learn to choose your battles —
concentrate on things that really ARE important.]
8. Stop criticizing his mother or father. This may
be difficult to do when his family makes life
difficult for you. "Speak the truth in love" and —
motivated by love, when it concerns his family. If
this doesn't help, ask the Lord to show you how to
handle the situation in the godliest, most
peaceable way possible.
9) Be patient with him. Make him feel special —
he’s still someone who craves your approval.
10) Keep looking your best — for him … and for
yourself.
