Submission?

As I was reading and studying today, I came across an article that really opened my eyes. It talked about the husband’s responsibility to love his wife, as Christ loves the church. In return, wives, we must willingly obey our husbands in everything, just as the church obeys Christ (Ephesians 5:24). 

A wife’s responsibility to her husband is mentioned many times in the Word. Ladies, it’s so important for us to listen to and obey our husband’s authority. The Lord has made him the head of our household for a reason. God would never tell us to do something unless he truly thought it would be beneficial to us. He loves us so much and he only wants the very best for us. When you cheerfully submit to your husband, you are submitting to the Lord. 

You will find that there is much more harmony in your marriage when you build your husband up and follow his lead. If your marriage is struggling, try obeying your husband and tell him how much you appreciate him caring for you and providing for you.

Husbands don’t forget to love on your wife, everyday. Tell her that you love and appreciate her.

I pray that my words, along with The Word, will enrich your marriage. I know that my blogs are short, but they're meant to give your marriage a quick boost and spark thought!  :)

As always, let me know if you have any questions or if there’s anything else you’d like to read about.

Here's the link to the article if you'd like to read it :)
