Bible Note: Amen, and again I say, Amen! Perhaps it is even more important for the man to set the example of fulfilling every vow smf being fully submitted to the headship of Christ! I love that Ephesians 5 draws out this wonderful picture of Christ and the church. God takes such pictures very seriously. (That's why Moses ended up dying in the wilderness.) But imagine a man in full submission to the Lord, carefully loving his wife, washing her in the Word, and presenting her back to the Lord and to himself. Just as Christ is doing with His bride! Would a Christian wife really have any difficulty submitting to such a man? I am truly blest by having a Proverbs 31 wife... but... Oh, Father, help me to be a husband fully submitted to You! |
