Henry, while having dinner with the Potters in his home, shared how his wife (Dorothy) loved him by going fishing with him.

BIBLE:

Proverbs 18:22 King James Version (KJV)

Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.

Ephesians 6:28-33 King James Version (KJV)

So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
