       And, sub-point two is that while the wife needs to follow her husband’s leading, the husband should not be domineering over his wife. God said, “You husbands must be loving and kind to your wives and not bitter against them nor harsh” (v. 20, TLB). So, then, (now pay attention husbands!) that means showing love and being kind, and not acting bitter or being harsh. Peter said in his epistle, “You husbands must be careful of your wives, being thoughtful of their needs and honoring them as the weaker sex. Remember that you and your wife are partners in receiving God’s blessings, and if you don’t treat her as you should, your prayers will not get ready answers” (1 Peter 3:7, TLB). When the husband isn’t sensitive with his wife’s feelings, and doesn’t care for her, this sows not only discord in the household but also in the man’s relationship with God. Men, that’s not a place you want to be in.
