Proverbs 31:23
Her husband is known in the gates,
when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
This husband has the mind to judge matters for the
city. He is respected and people come to
him to make decisions. The virtuous
woman gives him the respect that is due his position. When a man is respected and listened to at
home, he gains the identity of one who is to be respected and listened to
outside the home. Ladies, when was the
last time you asked your husband for his advice, took it and went back and
affirmed him in it? When was the last
time you gave his advice to someone else and gave him credit for it? If we want our husbands to grow in their
ability to make good decisions, let us reverence them and follow their
lead. We are created to do them good. We will contribute to their character as we
listen to them and give them the respect God tells us to give them. Then, they will be known by others as one who
is to be respected.
