3 Ways to be a good Friend to your Husband
We wives love our husbands that's a fact, but do we like them? Do we enjoy them? Are we their friend? Are we our husbands best friend?
3 Ways to be a good friend to your husband
1) Be a Friend that sticks close Loyalty
"A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." Proverbs 18:24
Stay close to your man, by having his back no matter what. Every man wants a comrade a person they can trust a confidant one they can talk to without being judged. Be that friend who is friendly to her man who listens and sticks close by her man and his ideas, thoughts, wises, desires.
2) Lay Your life down
" Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends". John 15:13
To be a good friend lay your life down. Be willing to do anything for your man be willing to die to your pride, your selfishness and your complaining unthankful spirit. Let me tell you a unthankful, complaining, selfish and prideful spirit will not make you a good companion. I know because I've been there more than once. My man didn't like it and neither will yours. Who wants to be friends with a woman like that? I know I don't!
3) Don't be make friends with Anger
" Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go;" Proverbs 22:24-27
Being a good friend means letting go of anger. Don't waste your time on being angry, rather love covers a multitude of sins. When you make friends with anger your countenance becomes that of anger. You look angry, smell angry and no one wants to be around a bitter woman. Rather let your words edify, encourage and build up your man. Always speak of good around him. Let his ears hear your words always be full of grace.
