As far as Dad was concerned, being the spiritual leader of our home was more than just leading family devotions and taking us to church. For him it meant being a good steward of our resources and a caring husband. In addition to being a more than adequate mechanic, who serviced and repaired his own cars, Dad was also a willing helper to my mother who had her hands full with four kids. He changed diapers, helped make up beds, washed and dried dishes, and did just about anything else that needed doing. From him I learned what it meant to be a servant-leader years before that phrase was coined.
“Be good husbands to your wives. Honor them, delight in them….so your prayers don’t run aground.”
— 1 Peter 3:7 (MSG)
Jesus, help us to love and honor our wives. Amen.
