Now ladies, before you take the first slide the wrong way, it’s not saying women are weak.
Men and women have different strengths and weaknesses.
The point is that women are generally more emotional than men, and that reality should be taken into consideration by husbands.
If you want to be a husband, a leader, and the head of a family, you’re going to have to become stronger and wiser than your emotions.
Many relationships are damaged because both people are reacting instead of one person bringing direction. One emotional response turns into another. Then another. Before long, a small problem becomes a major conflict.
This can make or break a marriage.
It can create unnecessary arguments, distance, resentment, and separation.
A good relationship can be ruined when people lack the wisdom to communicate, problem solve, and navigate emotions correctly.
This does not mean a woman should be manipulative, disrespectful, or abusive with her emotions.
It means that men should understand their wives and learn how to operate with patience, wisdom, and self-control when emotions are high.
This is easier said than done for some of us.
Her reaction may come across as disrespect.
Cut her some slack. She’s your wife.
That does not mean you tolerate disrespect, abuse, or a lack of accountability. It means you do not allow emotions to take control of the situation.
A husband should learn how to navigate his wife’s emotions.
A wife should be self-aware of her emotions.
Together they bring order.
Men will have to be the bigger person often times.
You’ll have to lead.
Pray and ask God for the strength, wisdom, patience, and self-control to become the man, husband, and father He has called you to be.
Not every woman is fit to be a wife, and not every man is fit to be a husband.
Choose wisely.
