Leadership Through Servanthood

Validating her beauty.  Agatha Christie, the famous English Mystery writer once commented, “An archaeologist is the best husband any woman can have – the older she gets, the more interested he is in her.”

It was God’s intention that marriage partners be attractive to one another. Indeed, physical appearance is usually the first quality that attracts future mates to each other. It certainly is not a sufficient basis for a relationship, but it is , in most cases , a necessary one.

Paul states that Christ made the church radiant, “to present her to himself as a radiant church”  (Eph 5:27). Christ cares about his church in such a way that it results in beauty, glory and radiance. Likewise, husbands should do all in their power to help their wives feel beautiful and attractive.

When a wife prepares to leave for work in the morning or when she presents herself ready for a romantic dinner and asks. “How do I look?”  her husband should say, “wonderful!”  Ask any woman and she will tell you that “good,” “nice” and “fine” are simply unacceptable responses!
