The Challenge: However, if a man is still living as a mere boy [child-like in his thinking and care-free in his actions] or think himself to be a single male [ having no responsibility ], or just a mere man [responsible, but, only for himself]; he does not ,yet, like or better still, love himself. Nor is he, ready or willing to love his wife. And it becomes more difficult to love or show true love for his wife in the relationship. Most marriages are facing extinction today because of lack of knowledge.

The Solution: Love one another It is only when a man decides that he is a husband or a husband and father; he then becomes ready and willing in his thinking and actions to include his wife and each child into all he does. His new life with his new "family" becomes just as important as his job, vocation, sports or business. He is mature; sees the importance of living like a person of character and integrity; being honest in all things. He is willing to be open and willing to share his heart and his life with his wife; becoming both lovers and best friends: close and closer. No more secrets No more hiding behind a mask. No more just thinking and talking the talk. He takes bold action with confidence and assurance based on the God kind of love.

When a Man Chooses Love this can happen: He then sees the value of investing time and training into his new family - just as he would take interest to learn new things and improve the quality; and add value to his life while on the job; at the office; at church and it will begin to show up in the home. Love of God; love of himself; love of his wife and love of his children become a passion and joy. He then chooses to become the husband; a man that has both wisdom and love in his heart. He chooses to make decisions with his wife by his side. He risks everything and forsakes all others to be happy and live well; rooted and grounded in loyalty with the wife of his youth. He sees her as a "good thing," and trusts her to do him well all the days of his life.

He knows her strengths and embrace them; knowing she will only do right by him. He also sees her flaws and weaknesses, but decides to build her up by "covering" and standing up for her, rather than tear her down and pick her apart. In other words, when a man chooses love; he makes the decision to build on a foundation of being open and honest before God and his wife.

This choice transforms a man into a husband; a husband into a father. Love can endure all things; bare all things; believe all things; hope all things. This kind of love cannot fail. Now, I challenge you to make a difference in in your relationship by choosing love; godly love.

Scripture: "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. This is a profound mystery--but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband." (Ephesians 5:31-33 NIV) Scripture: " 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails....13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. (1 Corthians 13:4-7;13 NIV)
