“Happy wife, happy life” is a cute cliché often said to remind a husband to give into, or please, his wife and life will be easier in the home.
As with most clichés, there is always a small truth to them, and yes, if your wife is happy, or content, the marriage relationship moves along much more smoothly.
But, there are two halves to the marriage equation; and wife-pleasing is not the only component. In fact, the Bible states how a husband ought to treat his wife, and it’s not about keeping her happy, but about loving her as Christ loves His Church.
