Help me to be the good husband...

And you husbands must love your wives with the same love Christ showed the church. He gave up his life for her Ephesians 5:25

Prayer: Dear Father, Help me to be the good husband that you want me to be. Help me to love my wife even as Christ loves his church, being willing to give himself up for her, that he might bless her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself in a great brightness, that she might be holy and without harm. Help me to keep your command to love my wife as I love my own body. Authorize me to love her as I love myself. Help me to live in such a way as to help her in her attempt to be holy before you. May I always support, encourage, and comfort her.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
