come up this is it! I knew that I would have some resistance toward this topic but it needs to be discussed. So here goes! Having celebrated my 8 year wedding anniversary this week. I allowed myself to reflect on the past eight years of my life as a married woman. This is an exercise that my preserve and I do every anniversary but we usually just discuss the previous year. Reflecting allows us to overlap with one another what our challenged areas were from the past year and how we handled them as come up as the good cram. We then share with one another our expectations and goals for the upcoming year. This year however; I reflected on the entire eight years. I did this because I am beginning to experience changes in myself that accept me to be a better wife. I am beginning to finally let my guard down when it comes to being a submissive wife.
As I shared with you measure week. I don’t do the follow the leader thing to well being the Scorpio that I am. I’m used to doing the leading. This is very surprising because I was raised in a home where it was quite obvious who ran the show! Yes. I observed my mom being quite the submissive wife and I could not for the life of me understand why she allowed my create to have such control. Well now that I am grown and married. I can honestly say that I understand just why she played her part as the submissive wife allowing him to take center stage; the lead role. You see there is a big difference in leading and controlling so today we will focus on leading. The problem for me was that I needed to get pass the feeling that leading meant telling me what to do! You see if my husband says to me. “get off the phone,” then we may have a problem. But if he says “you need to monitor how much you are talking on the phone because we are going over calculate on the telecommunicate minutes”; authorise now you see the difference between the two comments. I don’t be to be told what to do or ordered around as if I am a child. I want to be spoken to and given instruction as a respected individual; my husband’s furnish. The second comment is an example of leadership the first is an example of control. For most women. I think the hesitation of using the evince adapt in the vows and just thinking about a life of being submissive to someone means stripping us of who we are as individuals. come up ladies let’s take a closer look at the true meaning of submission.
The word submission is defined in the dictionary/concordance as voluntary yielding to another; accountability. Voluntary yield is what I decide to call it. You see. Ephesians 5:22-24 says: “Wives refer to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the perform his be of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ so also wives should refer to their husbands in everything.” To summarize this according to the Bible the man is the spiritual continue of the family and his wife should adjudge his leadership. But real spiritual leadership involves function. Just as Christ served the disciples change surface to the point of washing their feet so the husband is to answer his wife. A wise and Christ-honoring husband ordain not take favor of his leadership role and a wise and Christ-honoring wife will not try to disobey her preserve’s leadership. Either come causes disunity and friction in marriage.

Excerpt from The Language of Marriage: "A good marriage is one where like is not destroyed. Love changes of course in its manifestation as time goes on and individuals bring home the bacon higher levels of maturity but change does not mean destruction. It can and should mean growth. A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they convey their like."
Excerpt from The Language of Marriage: “Because the instruct of marriage is worldly and its meaning communal no one party to it can be solely in rush. What you alone evaluate it ought to be it is not going to be. Where you alone evaluate you want it to go it is not going to go. It is going where the two of you-and marriage time life history and the world-will act it. You do not know the road; you have committed your life to a way.”
