The 15-year-old girl shot in the head by ...

Repect When It's Hard Written by Mrs. Nancy Wilson
"And let the wife see that she respects her husband."
~ Ephesians 5:33
"Dead flies putrefy the perfumer's ointment, And cause it to give off
afoul odor; So does a little folly to one respected for wisdom and
honor."
~ Ecclesiastes 10:1
Wives are commanded to see to it that they respect their husbands.
Husbands were not commanded to see to it that their wives respect
them. The command is directed to the wives themselves. Certainly
thisdoes not mean that the wife's conduct regarding respect is outside
the husband's jurisdiction; but it does appear that Paul's injunction
is worded in such a way as to lay the responsibility squarely in the
wife's lap. Women see that the laundry gets done, that the meals are
prepared, that the children are clean, and that countless other tasks
get done, butare they as diligent to see that theyrespect their
husbands?
Respect is a demeanor that should characterize wives in all their
conduct toward their husbands and in all their communication to or
about their husbands.This means courtesy in the home where the husband
is treated with honor. Christian wives must show respect by treating
their husbands with honor and courtesy in their role as head of the
family. They must also show respect in many little ways each day that
demonstrates that they revere their husbands. This canmean following
through when husband requests something instead of putting it at the
end of the to-do list. This kind of respect is simply a courtesy that
springs from gratitude and love.
Respect in communication includes how wives talk to their husbands,
and how they talk about them. This kind of respect is also shown on a
daily basis. When wife speaks to husband, she should not speak as
though she is talking to one of the kids. Her tone should be courteous
and kind, not critical, sharp, or flippant. Likewise, when her
friendshear her speak of her husband, theyshould note that on her lips
is the law of kindness, not railing and complaining. Rather than
sharing his weaknesses, faults, or problems, she should speak of him
kindly, saying things that would please him to hear her say. Consider
Proverbs 31:12, "She does him good and not evil all the days of her
life." This husband receives positive blessings from hiswife every
day. "The heart of her husband safely trusts her; so he will have no
lack of gain" (Proverbs 31:11). Again, this husband is confident in
the character of his wife; she brings him nothing but good things. He
knows she is not telling others things that she should not. His heart
is safe with her. She is trustworthy. This is a blessed husband
because he has a respectful, courteous, kind wife who lovingly
considers his interests ahead of her own. What husband wouldn't be
thankful for such a wife? In fact, the husband in Proverbs praises his
wife, for she isa source of tremendous blessing forthe whole family.
This is indeed a lovely picture. But not all husbands are easy to
respect all the time. Difficult circumstances can arise, and the
faithful Christian wife may find it a challenge to respect her
husband. When an otherwise respectable manbehaves in a foolish way, it
is a stench. The Scripture does not denythat stupid behavior is
unbecoming to a man. It is a foul odor. What does a wife do when her
husband is behaving in such a manner, and everyone knows it is folly?
Perhaps the stench has traveled far and wide. How can a Christian
woman render respect in such circumstances?
Folly can include financial irresponsibility, laziness, unwise
comments, irrational behavior, poor decisions, or faithlessness in
many areas. The Scripture speaks clearly about sin and does not
require wives to pretend their husbands who have acted foolishly
haven't really. Wives must view their husbands' folly the same way
Scripture does--as a stench. Nevertheless, respect is still required
from wives; it is not a qualified commandment.
A wife may speak to her husband about his behavior. She may ask himto
consider what he is doing and encourage him to put things right by
making appropriate restitution. She may do this and still be
fulfilling her duties of respect and submission, if she speaks kindly
and is not bitter and resentful. If hepersists in his folly, she may
need to speak with her pastor or the elders about the situation. This
is not disrespectful if it is done with the proper attitude and
demeanor.
Perhaps church discipline is in order, and the elders are unaware
ofhis behavior. Certainly a wife can dothe right thing in the wrong
way. For example, it may be her duty to go to her pastor or elders,
but she must guard her tongue and communicate about her husband in
arespectful manner.
