Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the Church. - Eph 5, 25.
It has been paraphrased Husbands, go the way of the cross for your wives.
I know that this is not a negative thing, not some burden that we should avoid as much as possible, something we just have to trudge through. Fr. Neuhaus has reminded us that the way of the cross is the way of glory. It is how we become who we are to be! My license plate says E5 MAN, for crying out loud, as a reminder.
So why can't I remember to stop focusing on my own needs and wishes in our relationship?
