My idea of a husband's role to "please his wife," is how can I love her more, how can I make her life more fruitful, how can I help her joy, how can remove her stress, and make her happy, etc. to the best of his ability. .

I think you're exactly right, brother. Our marriage covenants are pictures of the very covenant Christ has made with us, his Bride. Our wives, imperfect as they (and we!) Are, are God's gift to us... and I'd better get off my Galaxy SIII before mine gets grumpy with me....
