Choose Wisely Men
I’ am blessed with a Christian wife who loves the Lord. We are working on 44 years of marriage this next December. That is a lot to some of you and then a drop in the bucket to others. As I go through the bible there are many verses on describing characters of a wife, One of my favorite chapters in Proverbs.
Listen to how the writer describes the attributes of a good wife.
Proverbs 31:10-12
10 A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. 11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
A good marriage cannot be one-sided. It takes both husband and wife working together in mutual love and respect for each other with God as the center. A Christian wife is more valuable than Rubies. You don’t measure the value of your wife in terms of worldly success, but in terms of Godly character. She brings him good…. Guys have you ever started your day with your wife lifting you up to God in prayer for the day? What a way to start your day.
As I look back at meeting my wife in the Navy, who would have thought that ET2 Bombei and HM3 Bishop’s marriage would of last 43 years. My wife had a great career as a nurse; she truly loved taking care of patients often praying with her patients. She loves her boys, valuing the times she gets to see and talk with them. Now that she is a grandmother, it gives her more little ones to love. She is still worth more than rubies.
Yes, I am a lucky man.
