My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: Prov 6:20
You might think that this has more to do with parenting than marriage. It probably does. That's how I have always thought. But this morning I saw something I'd never considered. I know it's true not only because it's God's word but from my own experience.
Good parenting requires a good marriage. You see, husband and wife must be of the same mind. They must believe the same things and teach the same things to accomplish anything. They must work together, pray together, be together, learn together, discipline together, worship together. This is very challenging but essential to the raising of godly children. This again is God's plan for marriage, to be one flesh.
Is there a unity between you and your wife? Are you on the same team? Husbands examine yourselves in this regard. Be involved in parenting and be reconciled to your wife.
