“Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written, ‘As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.’ So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.” – Romans 14:10-12

Tell Her She’s Beautiful—Man as an Instructor 

 
Behold, you are beautiful, my love; behold, you are beautiful; your eyes are doves. Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly delightful. Our couch is green; the beams of our house are cedar; our rafters are pine. — Song of Songs 1:15-17 (ESV)

Is it just me, or have you noticed that we men aren’t known for verbalizing our innermost thoughts and feelings? Have you noticed how reluctant we are to offer compliments or praise to the people around us and especially within our families? That’s not how we tend to think a “man’s man” should act. Unless a guy is the front man in a band singing love songs, culture has taught us that it is somehow not very “manly” to express yourself so personally and vulnerably. But biblical masculinity teaches us a different way.
