A good marriage is not an automatic consequence of two people loving each other. The concerted efforts of the husband and wife make a good marriage. In any marriage, there is more than enough work to keep two people busy for the rest of their lives. The difficulty comes when that effort must be divided between the man and the woman. Who will be responsible for which tasks?
As in all matters of life, God has not left us without guidelines. God has assigned responsibilities to men and women. Those responsibilities are different for men and women, just as men and women are physically and emotionally different. The tasks assigned to each one take advantage of the natural capabilities of men and women. Because some tasks are assigned to one group and not another, it does not mean this group is more favored in God’s sight. God is impartial to mankind (I Peter 1:17). The responsibilities of a husband are no better or worse than those given to the wife.
