This book showcases the positive impact of the husband on the ‘Virtuous Woman’ of the book of Proverbs 31. It does not focus on her virtues or strengths per se. So much has already been written or said about her. Instead, this is to project the husband’s significant positive impact from ‘’behind the scenes’’.
This idea came to me one day as I meditated on her work and activities. It suddenly dawned on me that she couldn’t have achieved all that she did without her husband’s encouragement or support. How did he feel about her achievements? Did he ever feel threatened or insecure with her? This situation reminded me of the untold support I had from my husband, without which you would not be reading this piece.
This work is meant to encourage wives to appreciate their husband’s contributions to their lives. Unfortunately, some women attribute their success to other persons or sources. This attitude is prevalent among couples with troubled marital relationships. Others take their husbands for granted until they lose them emotionally or physically through separation, divorce, or death.
