Why is love important for a happy marriage?

Answered in 1 source

Love is essential for a happy marriage because it fosters mutual respect and willingness to serve each other.

The core command for husbands in Ephesians 5 is to love their wives as Christ loved the church. This love is not merely emotional but is a commitment to seek the welfare of one’s wife above oneself. A happy marriage is built upon such sacrificial love and service, where the husband prioritizes his wife’s happiness. When both partners embrace this selfless love, the relationship thrives. Husbands are called to lead with love, creating an atmosphere where mutual respect flourishes, contributing to the overall happiness of the marriage.
