7 Days of Loving Your Husband Well
By Tarley Collins
Day 1: Initiate Sex
Day 2: Admire Him Out Loud
It takes more than sex to make a healthy marriage, but it’s impossible to have a healthy marriage without it. Even if you and your spouse aren’t in a good place right now and the idea of intimacy feels unappealing, do it anyway. Sex is a powerful force that will help you reconnect on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.
Challenge: Give your husband your body.
Do this: Send a loving or flirty text during the day to remind him you desire him.
Why it matters: Even when the relationship feels strained, intimacy is a powerful force to rebuild connection.
1Corithains 7:3 “Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband."
Day 3: Reassure Him of Your Desire and Loyalty
Challenge: Express sincere admiration for your husband.
Action:
Compliment his character or work ethic.
Tell him something he did that makes you proud.
Do it sincerely, without joking or sarcasm.
Why it matters:
Men rarely hear affirmation. When they do, it strengthens their confidence and heart.
Challenge: Recognize the pressures he carries without minimizing them.
Action:
Say something like:
“I know you carry a lot.”
“Thank you for holding things together.”
“I see how hard you’re trying.”
Why it matters:
Many husbands feel invisible in their sacrifices. Recognition shows you see and value their effort.
Day 5: Thank Him for Being Your Husband
Challenge: Affirm his identity, not just his efforts.
Action:
Say:
“Thank you for being my husband.”
“I don’t take you for granted.”
Why it matters:
This reinforces his role in your life and strengthens relational bonds.
Day 4: Acknowledge His Burdens
Challenge: Reaffirm your attraction and commitment.
Action:
Say something like:
“I choose you.”
“I’m still attracted to you.”
“I’m on your team.”
Why it matters:
Desire and loyalty provide emotional security and reassurance.
Day 7: Apologize When Needed
Day 6: Tell Him He’s Enough
Challenge: Affirm his worth and value.
Action:
Say:
“You’re enough for me.”
“I’m grateful God gave me you.”
Why it matters:
Many husbands quietly fear they’ll never measure up. Assurance builds confidence and intimacy.
Challenge: Recognize recurring behaviors and repair any friction.
Action:
Say:
“If I’ve done anything to hurt you or haven’t listened well, I’m sorry. I really want us to work together and hear each other out.”
Why it matters:
Apologies restore trust and demonstrate humility, paving the way for deeper connection.
