1. Respect His Role

Acknowledge his position as the leader of the home, not because he’s perfect, but because it’s God’s order.

“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.” Ephesians 5:22

2. Speak Kindly and With Respect

Use respectful words and tone when speaking to him or about him, even when you’re correcting or disagreeing.

3. Appreciate His Efforts

Say “thank you” often – for providing, protecting, leading, and trying his best.

4. Support His Decisions

Even if you have your views, allow him to lead and trust his judgment. Please share your thoughts, but don’t override him.

5. Pray for Him Daily

Cover him in prayer. A man carries weight you may never fully see. Prayer shows you value and support him.

6. Don’t Compete With Him

Don’t try to take over his role or constantly challenge his leadership. Work with him, not against him.

7. Celebrate Him Publicly and Privately

Praise him before the children, friends, and family. Speak highly of him, not down.

8. Seek His Input Before Big Decisions

Let him know you value his opinion. Don’t just inform him—include him.

9. Be His Peace, Not His Stress

Let home be a safe place. Choose patience and understanding instead of nagging or criticizing.

10. Believe in Him

Even when he’s not there yet, show that you trust in who he is becoming.

These small actions speak volumes and help build a healthy, respectful, and loving relationship in which both partners thrive.
