and wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands

 

 

 

‎"... and wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord." Ephesians 5:22

(That is easy as long as we are in agreement with our husband --but profoundly hard when his decision conflicts with what we want.)

Nevertheless, as long as the husband is not requiring his wife to disobey God, she must obey Him as she would the Lord.

Ladies, this is where our faith in God is tested. Do we really trust God to work out our husband's decisions for good? When we ask our heavenly Father, He will provide us with the measure of faith to meet this tremendous challenge.

We have this promise:

1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
