My goal as a wife is to smother my husband with love. I intend to love on him by spending time with him and being verbal and active in how I demonstrate my commitment to him.
It’s not always easy to be the spouse I desire. Effort and energy are both required, which I don’t always possess. Frequently, I am tired. I have a lot on my plate career wise, so time is limited. My children have requests that also pull me away. However, with all of that being said, I need to make the time and force the energy because I need my marriage to survive.
I am so passionate about what marriage provides; a lasting partnership and friendship. It fulfills our needs to feel love and share our lives with someone who contributes to it; who makes us feel alive.
It is an awesome feeling to have this level of commitment and connection. I love being able to take care of someone and have someone take care of me. Sharing my life with a person who cares about what’s happening in my world is a blessing.
With so much to personally be grateful for, it makes sense to have a goal of being the best wife possible If this is also a goal for you, then here’s a quick cheat sheet of my personal plan to be a good wife.
Stay Prayed Up
Staying prayed up is my ultimate goal. Praying over my marriage and asking God to protect it, only increases our faith, commitment and connection.
Love with Everything You Got
Loving with everything I have is next. Intentionally carving out time for date nights, making sure our communication is open and honest and our intimacy is alive and well, top the list.
Don’t Judge
Not judging what doesn’t make sense to me. My goal is to seek understanding for what I have questions about. If I don’t get why my husband is feeling what he’s feeling, I have to ask appropriate questions and not jump to conclusions.
Have No Regrets
Becoming a wife of little to no regrets. I don’t ever want to regret how I talk to my husband, take him for granted or neglect him in the bedroom.
Be in Tune
My primary goal in my marriage is making sure my husband consistently feels loved. If he does not, I’m positive he will let me know. But as good wives, we have to be aware and in tune with our spouses. Being a good wife, or better yet, being a great wife, should be part of every married woman’s plan.

This is an awesome cheat sheet. My husband an I are remarried and unifying the families without constant conflict or nagging is also critical. However, it probably falls under prayer.

I too am reuniting with my husband. We have been divorced for 3 years..don’t see much info regarding second time around with the same person..I’m curious to know if you know of any helpful resources?

I would say find something new to love about your husband everyday and always keep an element of surprise in your relationship. Let him know he’s needed , wanted, and appreciated.

How do you deal with marital problems if you cant talk to othes about the issues you face?
stacey says
Why is the focus always on the woman being a good wife and meeting their husbands needs, who meet our needs who educate them about treating a woman right? It goes two ways.

Walk and talk with GOD. I too don’t have anyone to discuss my issues with. But I realized that it was because GOD wanted me to talk to Him.

I’m a wife, so I can only speak from my own perspective. I know my goals as a wife, and my loving my husband is supposed to be unconditional. It is my prayer that he returns the same type of love I give.
