Thank you for this simple (yet incredibly important ) reminder to my heart this morning! <3 I’m thankful to know there are other wives out there who love their husband and love marriage too!

I’m not sure that “well dressed” one is so accurate. The verse sited seems too loose of an application and it seems to contradict Matthew 6:25 โTherefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? “
