1 Corinthians 7:3a - "Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence..." I came across this passage and the words "due benevolence" jumped out. By nature women are responders, and this passage talks to the man first in each verse.  These words that God tells the man indicate a kindness, a delight in the others' happiness, and wanting good will before ourselves. As husbands this is the attitude due our wives! Too often I find myself being selfish and these word are a great reminder to lovingly give ALL for my wife as Christ in love gave ALL for me.  - Matt Stephens
