1. We should strive to construct stronger bonds in our relationships by putting personal needs aside for the needs of our spouse, and when we fail to do so we fall short of God’s will.
Strengthening the Christian relationship with our spouse is a necessity of life! (Philippians 2:1-7)

2. Accountability is a must in any marriage; if you foster a true friendship with your spouse accountability will naturally follow. (Galatians 6:1-3)
3. Real commitment involves sacrifice while rejecting worldliness by surrendering our minds to Christ for transformation! (Romans 12:1-2)
4. A Christian husband should be willing to do those things for his wife that may seem difficult at the moment in order to benefit the marriage for the long-term gain, and all the while he is to treat his wife with tender care.
Sometimes this may go against our very nature but God has called Christian men/husbands to a higher standard. (1 Peter 3:7; Colossians 3:19)

5. A committed Christian wife is one who adores her man, and who seeks to increase her inner beauty through spiritual development!
1 Peter 3:1-4 (ESV) Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, 2 when they see your respectful and pure conduct. 3 Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— 4 but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.
Two of the sexiest things my wife does is study her Bible each day and demonstrate her support in all I do by standing with me.
