"At last!" Adam exclaimed.
"She is part of my own flesh and bone!
She will be called 'woman,'
because she was taken out of a man."
Women by nature are dear to men because they were created from a piece of man. Men are special to God because God breathed into man as Genesis 2:7 teaches us, “And the LORD God formed a man's body from the dust of the ground and breathed into it the breath of life. And the man became a living person.” Having God breath directly into man is what makes man so unique among all of God's creations. That unique relationship gives us the template for marital love because Ephesians 5:25 teaches, “And you husbands must love your wives with the same love Christ showed the church.” Now, for men to love their wives in the same way, men need to remember that Christ was crucified for the love of the church. Now that’s commitment. That kind of commitment is the truest form of love. Husbands, love your wives with that same deep commitment, through the pain, the breakdowns and the denials. If you do this in the true love that Jesus gave to the church, you'll find that God will move in your life in unimaginable ways.
