Recently, I got an outburst from some women. They accused me of empowering the men at the detriment of their wives. They said my teachings are old ?? They advised that I teach women to know their right and all the sort ??
Hmmm...I wish they know! They should ask my husband ??
I am a woman's woman. I don't succumb; I can not be subdued. I can not be controlled. Make no mistake, I do not teach what I don't practice. Inasmuch as I am promarriage and preach the headship of the man over his wife, I know the difference between being submissive and being controlled.
I do not subscribe to wife slavery, far from it. I am an advocate for justice and fairness. But I know not to fight nature. I know not to fight a lost battle. I recognise my weaknesses and know my strengths. I know where my power as a woman and wife is and I know to use it to capacity.
I am wise enough to know what I can change and how to optimise what I cannot.
I know and understand my place as a woman. I am too smart to contend with the headship of my husband. Because I know that is a battle I can never win. If I want God to be the centre of my marriage and if I want to eat the good of marriage, I know to operate in my place and give my husband room to operate in his.
There is no basis for contention because we are two unique individuals functioning together in different capacity for one common goal - to fulfil our purpose as individuals, as a couple and as a family.
Don't get it twisted, I am not a timid, subdued, weak, uncivilized wife ??. But I am not a feminist(in the contemporary sense) either. I am a balanced, healthy, conscious and expressive wife who is wise enough to know that marital success can not be gotten by contending with my husband.
If you don't understand, fully accept and operate with the divinely arranged principles of marriage, you have no business getting married. Otherwise, marriage will mess you up big time except if you are married to a man who is unaware and a spiritual ignorantus.
I come in Peace!
Love Always,
