As a wife, you may be wondering what your husband expects from you. Some men do not talk, and if they do, it will be as brief as possible.
Some women on the other hand are more expressive.
So what does a wife expect from her husband who would hardly talk?
Well, I have put together six things I expect from my wife. This will help wives have an idea of what husbands might like.
1. I expect her to respect me
As you might have discovered, respect is a very big issue for men. Every wife should show respect to her husband.
The principle of sowing and reaping also comes into place here. As you honour your husband, he will honour you as well.
2. I expect her to be homely
Caring comes naturally for women. If you, as a woman are not caring, your husband will not enjoy you.
You should be able to take care of the home, make good meals, and look after the kids.
3. I expect her to pray for me always.
Wives, pray for your husbands. Women are very powerful. A praying wife is a terror to the devil. If your wife prays for you genuinely, you will see the advancement it will bring to your life.
4. I expect her to look good all the time.
I don’t want my wife looking twice her age because men are moved by sight. I like her looking beautiful for me at all times.
Wives, look your best for your husband. Do not get careless with your dressing. There are dangerous ladies out there dressing to “kill”. Be wise.
5. I expect her to support me
My wife should be my number one fan. I expect her to support me and all I stand for. No husband can go far without a supportive wife.
6. I expect her to be active in bed
You probably thought I wouldn’t add that. Jeru trip is important to men. If you want to keep your marriage standing, keep the bedroom hot!
Jeru trip should not be used as a reward or punishment.
1Co 7:5 (AMP)
Do not refuse and deprive and defraud each other [ of your due marital rights ], except perhaps by mutual consent for a time, so that you may devote yourselves unhindered to prayer. But afterwards resume marital relations, lest Satan tempt you [ to sin ] through your lack of restraint of sexual desire.
I will stop here this morning!
Be blessed!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
1Co 7:5 (MSG)
Abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it, and if it's for the purposes of prayer and fasting—but only for such times. Then come back together again. Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it.
