My Duties As His Wife

Pray for him.
Cook for him.
Let him take lead.
Pray with him.
Lay with him,
Do the intimate deed.
Help him with his spiritual battles,
By giving him scriptures to read.

Fix his plate,
Clean up,
Rub his back,
While praying for him some more,
Put him asleep,
Ask the Lord for him to be,
In His safe keep.
This has become a part of my life.
These are some of my duties as his wife.
