The Lord God said:

"It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him".

Wives have always found it difficult to live with what they want most: a husband! What we, as women, need perhaps more than ever, is a clear mental picture of our responsibilities as wives.

In the midst of our twentieth-century experience, God's design for husbands and wives still stands. One clear scriptural part of a wife's role is completing what is lacking in her husband. In the words of Genesis, this involves being a helper that is "suitable" for him. Or, a help that is "meet" ("fit") for him. We are to complement or complete our husbands.

As we fulfill our God-given purpose as helpmate to our husband, it helps build oneness between us.
