What You Love You Submit To!
« on: May 04, 2007, 07:44:45 AM »
A wife is a helper to the husband and not a knife to cut his dreams off. However, as far as love is concerned, the duty of the wife in marriage is to appropriate the love she receives from her husband and respond amiably. Notice here: it’s the love she receives from her husband. The husband has the primary responsibility to give his wife love. No husband has the right to complain against the wife he does not cherish. And no wife has the right to behave otherwise if her husband gives her the love she deserves.

Although it is the husband’s responsibility to love his wife, the wife has also a role to play. A wife's love for her husband is defined as respect. A wife must esteem her husband, showing this through a reverent submission that allows the man to discharge his loving duties well. This is not a defeatist submission, but rather a deliberate attempt at allowing the man to lead so that there is direction in the marriage. What you love you submit to.

The man is not the head of the house by coercion, but by function. When wives allow their husbands to be heads and the husbands play their loving roles well, there can never be anything but bliss in the relationship. To love her husband and children is a wife's greatest legacy. Let your husband be the true love of your life.
