Loving Devoted Husband and Caring Father
Being a loving and devoted husband is not easy these days because of all the distraction we face in this rat race we call life. We choose to occupy our time, interest and desires with what the world shows us on television, things we see in a stores or what the other person has that we want.
These are all lies to deceive us. They will rob us of being a loving and devoted husband to our wives and a caring father to our children. Our focus has been set off course and it’s in the wrong place.
Saying “I DO” means we made a commitment, marriage is something you have to work at. Keeping the flame of love burning takes effort to do and only you can make that work. Being devoted means you are loyal to that person. Love comes by serving which in turns leads to intimacy. The scriptures clearly say in Ephesians 5:25
“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her.”
Loving and being devoted to your wife is easy. The hard part is fighting off the temptation this world puts before us. Draw close to God and trust Him to help you overcome all the temptations that keep you from being a loving devoted husband and caring father.
