Certainly you already protect your wife physically, I hope. It shouldn�t be any other way. You discourage her going out at night if it is dangerous. You protect her by encouraging her to lock the car when she goes shopping. And you provide the kind of security she needs at home for the times you are away.
But are you protecting her from other issues that she may be weak with in her life, such as: Over scheduling her time? Her own unrealistic goals or expectations, which set her up for failure? Burnout at work? At home? The children, who would take advantage of her weaknesses that they know so well?
Obviously, you can't protect your wife from every pressure, worry, fear or loss. But you can do your best to anticipate many of these problems before they occur and to establish a solid security system for her protection. Become proactive with these things. This will ensure that you�re protecting your wife, as you should be. Let us pray brothers:
Lord God, please give me wisdom and courage as I seek to protect my wife in all arenas in life and give her the security she so desperately needs and desires. In Jesus holy name I pray. Amen.
