Sometimes, I have to choose to respect my husband even when I don’t feel it!
Hi, I’m Renee Swope for Proverbs 31 Ministries.
My husband and I are very different. He’s laid back and I’m task oriented. He’s a little unorganized and I like things put away.
When we first got married, I felt like I was always finding dirty clothes on the floor so I labeled JJ “messy.” My respect dropped a notch. After a few Saturdays’ watching basketball on the couch, I labeled him “lazy." My respect for him dropped another notch.
One day I read in the Bible that wives are to respect their husbands, unconditionally. I started praying about my attitude and made a list of qualities I do respect about JJ. Then I decided to focus on those each day. It’s not always easy to do but it has transformed my marriage!
