Where are the honorable men going?

 " Any fool can make a baby, but it takes a real man to be a father". It takes honor, integrity and courage to be a real man. Its hard work. The good things in life are worth the hard work.
 Where are our honorable men going? I see too many guys who are in the midst of trials bailing out on the women that they promised to love, protect and care for. Its a  heart wrenching thing to watch the ripple affect of bad, unwise, ungodly, selfish choices.
   I'm not normally the one who participates in male bashing. This isn't about that. Its about, if you feel like fleeing, or you don't love your wife anymore, the only place you need to go is down on your knees and humble yourself before the lord. The same applies of wives as well.

Honor :
 noun
1. honesty, fairness, or integrity in one's beliefs and actions : a man of honor

2. a source of credit or distinction: to be an honor to one's family

3. high respect, as for worth, merit, or rank. To be held in honor

The word honor itself is found in the bible 146 times. Its a huge part of who we are as Christians.

Romans 12:10 NIV
 be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

It is time to put away selfishness, we have no use for it. It is displeasing to God and it ruins everything it touches.

1Corinthians 10:24 NIV
No one should seek their own good, but the good of others,

If wives and husbands would focus on each other and not on themselves we would never have a need to question the honor of our men.
