1️⃣ Scripture for Reflection:
– 📖 The Greatest Commandment
Matthew 22:37-39 – “Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
➝ This verse underscores the importance of love, not only for God but also for those around us. Your love for your wife is a beautiful expression of the love God intends for us to share.

Ephesians 5:25 – “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.”
➝ This passage speaks directly to the sacrificial nature of true love, reminding you to cherish and honor your wife deeply, just as Christ loves us.
– 📖 A Love that Endures
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 – “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
➝ This beautiful description of love highlights qualities that can deepen your bond with your wife. It encourages a love that is nurturing and steadfast, reflecting the love of Christ.
