HOW TO TO BE A GOOD WIFE

 

PRACTICAL BEHAVIOUR

 

Get rid of weaves/extensions and wigs/ fake nails/ fake eye lashes/ pants/trousers. Never ever buy them or touch them again. Have nothing to do with it.

 

If you have no health issues with your hair than grow your hair natural and long. Beyond shoulder length.

 

Be industrious and work; bring food on the table. Like the virtuous woman proverbs 31:10-31.

 

Eliminate overweight out of your life. (it is not healthy)

 

Get strong and fit.

 

Dress holy

 

Take care of the children.

 

Love the sisterhood. Don’t fight your sisters. Be united.

 

Be nice and friendly and mild to everyone.

 

Be hospitable

 

Let your man be the boss and encourage him to be the boss. He has the final say in the house. No excuses.

 

Follow your man across the world, be his faithfull traveling mate

 

Never scream to your man

 

Never curse or talk rude and with the “black woman attitude”

 

Do not talk in the company of men; unless asked for

 

Don't call your husband by his first name. Call your husband "sir/master/lord".

 

Do not ask your man to do things for you that you can do yourself; Is he your help? Or are you his help?

 

Ask your man what you can do for him

 

If your man desires to have another wife besides you (as in polygyny): accept it, love it and enjoy the benefits of it and love that sister and welcome her. Even help finding the new wife together with him.

Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear—

but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in The Most High's sight is very precious.

For this is how the holy women who hoped in The Most High used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, ...
