Submission


This is what I learnt in church today:

"Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord" - Ephesians 5:22.

Yup, today Pastor spoke about how wives have to submit to their husbands. It's not something new...I thought I knew the real meaning of submission...but you know what, wives have to be submissive in EVERYTHING. As in...EVERYTHING.

Pastor touched an area I know most preachers wouldn't do so openly over the pulpit...he gave "sex education". Haha...no, not like those we hear about puberty and stuff, blah blah blah. He was speaking to the wives...that their bodies are not their own. Give your husband sex if he needs it (okie I'm so blunt. But it's the truth!). It's only a natural desire...nothing wrong with it. If you, as your husband's wife, don't give it to him, he'll get it somewhere else (that's why divorce is becoming a trend)...but that does not go to say that husbands can do that if they want sex.

So anyway, that was part of the sermon...it was suprising that Pastor broached this subject on a fine Sunday morning IN CHURCH over the pulpit, but it was good. I think some wives may have felt a pinch (not only the sex part...the whole sermon). Next week he would be speaking to the husbands. Hehehe...

Oh yar...and husbands can't force their wives to be submissive...it's got to be voluntary, a DELIBRATE choice (ladies, you hear it).

Advice for the day (this is for the ladies): When choosing a life partner, find someone whom you can RESPECT...because you'll have to submit to him in EVERYTHING. Even when you don't feel like it.

"Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife" - Proverbs 21:9.
