Proverbs 12:4 An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, But she who causes shame is like rottenness in his bones.

We are living in a world where marriage is no longer held in high honor. Both, women and men, disrespect the concept of marriage. People are choosing to have live in boyfriends/girlfriends for the rest of their lives. People are choosing to live the worldly single life where they have the opportunity to sleep with whoever they desire without being attached. God did not intend for us to live this way.

For those who desire to take a step of faith and become married, Proverbs 12:4 are instructions for both men and women in marriage.

Women, you should desire to be excellent for your husbands. Not because of what he’s done but, because God called you to excellence. Like a crown, your presence alone should cause your husband to stand out and you should complement his existence.

Men, a crown is something that should be proudly displayed. We shouldn’t hide the fact that we’re married. Our wives are a gift from God. Also, we should not be ashamed of our wives. No matter how old or tarnished our crown becomes, this is the crown God gave to us. It’s partially up to us (the husband) to maintain its appearance.

Let’s establish and maintain a positive, healthy, God-ordained marriage.
