A Capable Wife Needs A Compassionate Husband

Proverbs 12:4

“A capable wife is her husband’s crown,

but a wife who causes shame

is like rottenness in his bones.”


The only way I know to find a capable wife is to let the Lord do the searching for you—not eHarmony!


We all have ups and downs in our marriages. Congratulations to you if you don’t—but we don’t want to hear about it. Most of us live in another world where there are disagreements over the kids and money and where to eat on Sunday afternoon. No one ever said relationships were easy. Living with someone totally different than you is filled with challenges. But finding the middle is a great exercise that results in marital and personal growth. Don’t ever loose the vision of growing old together. Keep talking about your dreams. Pray together even when you don’t feel like it. And be determined to hang in there. If one of you decides to leave the other one should tag along. Those who persevere will win the crown. It will be worth it all.
