Conclusion: - Are you providing as husband true leadership for your wife and your household? Or are you a mere figure head. Any marriage that cannot form an altar of worship and prayer together is already altered. If women can give the home the attention that they give to themselves as in looking after their physical features, they can make their homes to be paradise on earth. When the man complements this, angels will like to come and rest in our homes.
