As The Church Submits to Christ

How is your week going? Have you struggled with this topic? Has it been hard?

True story: My husband and I had some intense moments of "fellowship" around here last night. Do you know what he had the audacity to bring up? It had something to do with his wife's lack of respect.

Now aren't you glad you stopped by here for some insight on the topic? Blush.

I'm pulling for you! Will you pull for me too?

"Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything." Ephesians 5:24

What do we submit in? How does the church submit to Christ? Do we pick areas to submit and leave some out? Does Christ become less of the boss if we decide that we don't like what He asks?

IN THE SAME WAY, we should submit to our husbands.

Really?

Everything?

Now, it is true. This verse can be dangerous if pulled out and made the law without any of the surrounding passages. This verse doesn't speak of the husband's responsibilities. It speaks of ours.

We can only do our part, and we will only be held accountable for our own actions. So we're just gonna keep working on us!

I'm praying for you today. Please pray for me....please?

Memorizing: "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior" Ephesians 5:22-23

On a much lighter note, our first mom sent in some photos last night of their Valentine's project. So fun? Hope to hear from YOU!
