What is needed to be a good husband?
Jehovah God wants your family life to be happy.
His word, the bible, provides guidelines for each family member, describing the role that God wants each one to play. When family members fulfill their roles in harmony with Gd's counsel, the results are satisfying. Jesus said: " Happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!-luke 11:28.
Family happiness depends mainly on our recognizing that the family originates with jehovah, the one jesus called "Our Father". (Matthew 6:9) Every family on earth exists becouse of our heavenly Father-and he certainly knows what makes families happy. ( Ephesians 3:14, 15) so, what does the bible teach about the role of each family member?
Divine Origin Of Humam Family
God created the first humans, Adam and Eve, and brought them together as husband and wife. He put them in a beautiful earth paradise home-the garden of Eden-and told them to have children. "Be fruitiful and become many and fill the earth," said jehovah. (genesis 1:26-28; 2:18,21-24) This is not just a story or myth, of family life is true. Although we face many problems and life now is not as God purposed it to be, let us see why hapinness within the family is possible.
Each member of the family can help to make family life happy by imitating God in showing love. (ephesians 5:1,2) How, though, can we imitate God, since we cannot even see him? We can learn how jehovah acts becouse he sent his firstborn from heaven to the earth. (John1:14,18) When on earth, this son, jesus christ, imitated his heanvely Father so well that seeing and listening to jesus was just like being with jehovah and hearing Him. (john 14:9) Therefore, by learning about the love that jesus showed and following his example, each one of us can help to make family life happier.
