SACRIFICE SELF!


2-9-2010. . . .SACRIFICE SELF!

"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it..." (Eph 5:25;KJV) The most import thing a husband can give to his wife is 'Himself'. In fact, the success of the marriage hinges on it. He can give money, security, a home and automobile; all the material things one could afford, but none of these will have the same impact as the 'Giving of Himself!' Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it and in returned, received a glorious church without spot or wringle. In the same way, husbands can receive a glorious wife and a wonderful marriage by being willing to sacrifice 'SELF'!

Prayer: Lord, thank you for your example of self sacrifice! Bless all husbands to follow your example and create for themselfs a wonderful marriage that fullfills them and pleases you. Amen!

Eph 5:27-30 28. . . In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church- for we are members of his body. NIV
