Subject: Woman's sin worse than man's? |
Bible Note: Greetings Debbie! Years ago I prayed that my husband would assume spiritual headship in our home. One Sunday morning while driving to church (the church I grew up in) he turned down a street that led to a different church. We have been there ever since! I had a choice to make all those years ago. I'm glad it was to be submissive - for in reality, God had answered my prayer. Does this mean I still don't struggle with his decisions? Of course, I advocate for "my way" who doesn't? But in the end, it is my husband whom God holds accountable for our family (which includes me) and he takes that more seriously than my whining. Thanks for your input. Blessings on your day! mommapbs |
