Please don&#8217;t use moodiness as an attempt to manipulate your man, but in all things rejoice, because that&#8217;s the right thing to do. (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.cc\/1_thessalonians\/5-16.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">1 Thessaonians 5:16<\/a>; <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.cc\/philippians\/4-4.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Philippians 4:4<\/a>)\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:Georgia;color:#891e42;\"><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span style=\"font-size:20px;\">Honor His Wishes<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\nGive weight to what your husband thinks is important. Make those things a priority that matter most to him, whether it&#8217;s having dinner ready when he gets home from work or keeping the house tidy or limiting computer time. Don&#8217;t make him ask twice.

But when your husband is speaking to you, make a point to lay other tasks aside and look into his eyes. Listen to what he is saying with the goal of understanding and remembering his words.\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:Georgia;color:#891e42;\"><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span style=\"font-size:20px;\">Don&#8217;t Interrupt<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\nHave you ever been around a person who won&#8217;t let you finish a sentence? That gets old fast. Even if you think you already know what your husband is going to say, allow him to say it without cutting him off mid-sentence. Doing so demonstrates both respect and common courtesy.\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:Georgia;color:#891e42;\"><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span style=\"font-size:20px;\">Emphasize His Good Points<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\nSure, he has his faults (as do you), but dwelling on them will only make you (both) miserable.
