Honour your woman

Honouring your wife increases her love for you.

A woman is the finest touch to God's creation and the symbol of whatever you know as beautiful. She completes a man by filling in his weaknesses.

No doubt behind every successful man is a woman. If you are privileged to have a woman in your life it is in your best interest to honour her so that she is motivated to give her best of care to you.

How to honour your woman
One of the greatest needs of a woman is her security in a relationship. She needs to feel secure to offer herself completely to her man. She hates rivalry. No doubt Akans say women hate "four eyes".

One honour you can give to your woman is to marry her properly and preferably wed her. It is a fact that many Ghanaian men fear wedding but if you really care about your woman, push away your fear and show her you are happy to commit to the relationship for life. Perfect love casts our fear.

A woman needs a lot of spoken or written assurances that she still means a lot to you. Never assume that because you have married her, you have proved your love. You have to tell her frequently and show that she is more important to you than your friends, relatives and your work.

This means you find quality time to connect with her and with respect talk freely about all issues of life. Noticing improvements in her and saying something positive about her means so much to her. Make her feel good about herself and your relationship.

Women feel honoured when they attend social functions with their lovers. Go out regularly to church, parties, and meetings with her. Hold her hand in public. Sit together in public places and look for opportunities to praise.

Talk well of her to all who matter in her life. Make them know how happy you are for what she does for you. Even if you praise her behind her back she will get to know and be more caring. This also means you never criticise her before others including your children.

Appreciate everything your woman does for you. Appreciation gives a woman a sense of fulfillment. It makes her feel special, valued and cherished. It assures her that her efforts acknowledged. Her efforts may appear ordinary but they are the magical touches to your success and well-being. Without appreciation , your woman becomes easily tired, passive, isolated, and overwhelmed. She stops caring.

Listen to your woman with your eyes, ears, body language and heart. Let what matters to her matter to you even if you see them as important. Appreciate she has special needs. If she is troubled, appreciate that even though it may be small to you, it is a real problem to her and you must support her. Let pleasing her be pleasing to you.

Studies show relationships often celebrated often grow up in health. You must, therefore, never silence your relationship. Let the whole world know you have a woman you are proud of. Set apart special and even ordinary times - birthday, anniversaries, day you met, special festive occasions and do something special for her. A meal with few friends, a walk, drinks anything you can easily afford.

Celebrate the fact that you are together.
Laugh over your past difficulties. Give her gifts. They need not be big. It is the idea that is on your mind that matters.

If you have a woman in your life, honour her because without her your life will be incomplete and insignificant. Also remember that since you are one flesh with her, whatever you do for her becomes your mirror image. If you honour her, you honour yourself.

Make your woman the most important person in your life and your very heartbeat. If you place a high value on your woman and make her aware of your expectation she becomes the queen of your life.

Honouring your wife increases her love for you. As you honour her, she becomes more honourable and you reap the results in multiplied terms.

Your maker commands you to honour your wife. If you do not, no matter how much you profess God and how earnestly you pray He will not hear your prayers.

On the otherhand many good things will happen to your life as you honour your woman. Honouring your woman is simple .. Just esteem her as precious and valuable. Do this always at least for your own sake.
