A man tends to become what his wife calls him. Thats a scary thought isnt it? If she picks on what he isnt, hell never grow. If she praises what he is, hell become that even more. If a man in your life has a weakness, and Im sure he has many, look for those times when he shows a little progress in that area, and then build him up even if its just a little progress. Men change slowly, and only when they feel secure enough to take a risk. And a womens acceptance, and praise, and encouragement can give a guy enough confidence to change. Were told by social scientists that for every one negative or criticism we get, we need seven positives to bring us back to zero. I wonder what the ratio is between you and the man in your life with praise to criticism. If youre a mother, a sister, a girlfriend, especially a wife, be in the construction business. Dont let frustration drive you into the demolition business, finishing off an already damaged man. Use that powerful tool of praise to construct a more Christ-like man. Whether or not women know what to do with a hammer or a saw, they sure are the worlds best builders
