—1 Peter 3:1-9
by: Dorothy Noel.
Interpersonal relationships affect our relationship with God. We cannot expect to love God well without caring well for His people. In this passage, Peter offered practical advice for how spouses can show this love for one another. The goal of this advice is not only to teach us how to love one another better, but to show wives how to guide their husbands back to godly obedience and husbands how to honor their wives as inheritors of grace. All Christian relationships—marriage included—are opportunities to bear witness to God’s love and perfect salvation. How are you doing this today?
