How to be a better wife.
This is an interactive list. For this one, please list only suggestions on how wives can be better wives.
The first thing that comes to mind is...be a better husband.
Lists will only cause us to judge their actions; and...who are we to judge?
Love them as Christ loved His church...then give...give...give of yourself; a completely healed husband can heal a wife living with guilt and pain. If a husband is not healed of sin and past hurts...he is of no value to his wife.
There is nothing in scripture that supports this idea of "if you live this way, you will heal your wife", nor the idea of the iimplication hiden within that: the idea that a wife who is looking to become a better wife is only doing so because she has wounds that need to be healed (by a husband), and only then will she be OK.
There is no list that "causes us" to judge another. The Bible is full of things that we can put into lists, but makes it clear that our heart condition is that which makes us judgmental--if we're going to be!
Somebody who is Spirit-filled, who asks, "how can I be better for you?" Is saying "I want to be responsible to become more like Christ, in relation to you. Give me some feedback on those things that would help me to do that, since I don't want to do this without your valuable feedback." They then can listen for all things that don't cause them to step outside the Word of God, and go for it. Those who would abuse that step of vulnerability should be confronted with that, and steps should be taken to readjust, should he/she refuse to STOP abusing it.
