What should the husband and wife relationship be like if it is as God intended?
If marriage is as God intended, it should be a happy situation 365 days a year. There is no reason for husbands and wives to live on a constant battleground. The home should be marked by the Lord's control, not personal perfection, because that is the way He wants it.
Les explains that if the husband and wife relationship is as God intended, it should be a happy situation 365 days of the year. There is absolutely no reason for husbands and wives to be on a constant battleground. He illustrates from his own experience: after being together 43 years, their children can say they never heard them raise their voice at one another. He credits this not to perfection but to knowing the Lord is in control of their home, and says this is the way He wants it.
