What If I Don't Feel Like Showing Love Or Respect?
In this candid exploration of Ephesians 5:33, Emerson tackles the raw struggle of showing love and respect when you just don't feel it—urging couples to obey God's command first, act despite emotions, and watch feelings follow, offering biblical wisdom and real-life examples for husbands and wives seeking to revive their relationships through faith-driven obedience.
Questions to Consider
- What if obeying God's command in your marriage could transform your unloving or disrespectful feelings into genuine affection—would you take that first step today?
- How might viewing respect not as flattery but as faith in your husband's God-given spirit change the way you handle conflict?
- In moments of disrespect, could leaning into your identity as an honorable man, rather than reacting to her words, unlock deeper love in your home?
- When scripture clashes with your emotions, do you trust the unchanging Word enough to act independently of your spouse's response?
