If you heard it once, you've heard it a thousand times-the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
Delilah in the Bible understood this lesson as well. Over and over she tried to solve the riddle of Sampson's source of strength, without my success. One of her strategies the bible says is that "she tormented him with her nagging day after day until he was sick to death of it. Finally Sampson shared his secret with her." Her story is found in Judges 16:16-17.
In essence she used her strength, against his weakness. In other words, she the poor man down.
Is this your story too, I hope not!
However, as women of God, our mission should not solely focus on feeding him physical food, but as well feed him spiritual food.
There are 4 key ways this can be achieved (more can be added)....look below:
1. Respect him
2. Ego-feed his
3 Make him feel loved (ex. hugs)
4. Focus on him
Delilah did none of these things. Did she?
Now of course, I can't guarantee these four things will cause a change to occur in him overnight, but it will give you a new and better perspective on who you are and what you expect out of the relationship. Moreover, God will be pleased that you didn't' stoop to trickery and deceit in betraying the trust of your man.
God Bless,
