A Woman After God's Own Heart Part 5

Submission


1 Corinthians 11:3            Christ – man – woman: God’s order

Ephesians 5:22-24            
Wives be subject (submissive and adapt yourselves) to your own husbands 
as (a service) to the Lord. As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also
be subject in everything to their husbands.

Colossians 3:18                  
Wives subject to your husbands as is right and fitting and your proper duty 
in the Lord.

Titus 2:5                               
To be self-controlled, chaste, homemakers, good natured, adapting and 
subordinating themselves to their husbands, that the word of God may not 
be exposed to reproach.

1 Peter 3:1,6                       
You married women be submissive to your own husbands (as being secondary to 
and dependent on them) so that even if any do not obey the word they may be 
won over not by discussion but by the lives of their wives. It was thus that Sarah 
obeyed Abraham (following his guidance and acknowledging his headship over 
her by) calling him lord (master, leader, authority). And you are now her true 
daughters if you do right and let nothing terrify you (anxiety).

Proverbs 16:23-24            
The mind of the wise instructs his mouth and adds learning and persuasiveness 
to his lips. Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the mind and healing 
to the body.

Here we are out celebrating our 8 yr. anniversary
