Husband's Treasure

Proverbs 18:22

The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the Lord. 

Again, another verse that is nothing more than cut and dry. Fellas, wives are considered our treasure. Yet, everyday there is news of a husband, even Christian husbands, who beat, verbally abuse, cheat on, rape, even murder their wives. That's pitiful. I bet those same men wouldn't mistreat a monetary or material treasure in the same way. WE FIND A TREASURE when we find a wife. She is something of great value, to be cherished and taken care of. NOT to be abused in any way, not even to complain about. A treasure. A treasure, that when found, also brings favor from the Lord. That's heavy. Society has not only decreased the worth of our women, but also the value of marriage. Society displays women are to be used and marriage to be thrown away. To all men who are reading this, I challenge you. I challenge you to go against the grain of our corrupt society and hold the value of our women at the highest below Jesus. Husbands, I challenge you to hold your wives tight, value them like the treasure they are. Keep the values of a biblical marriage true. WE NEED A CHANGE. And for the woman reading this, if these men aren't following these guidelines that Jesus has ordained, know your worth and demand better.
