RENDER BENEVOLENCE

photo taken in July 2011 in near Siesta Keys in Florida

"Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence:
and likewise also the wife unto the husband."
1 Corinthians 7:3

I read this scripture this morning. We are currently studying Paul's letters to the Corinthians in Sunday School. I really liked this verse. It is good counsel for any married couple. The world would be a different place if we all "rendered benevolence" to our spouse.
RENDER: to give what is due, to bestow, to provide, to submit,
BENEVOLENCE:  the love accompanied with a desire to promote their happiness.

In the above photo my wife is about 5 months pregnant. We have our hands jointly together forming a heart shape on her "belly". My wife looks amazing. We only have a  few weeks left until the arrival of our 4th daughter.
