Honor your husband as I have instructed. Be sure to treat him with respect above your own feelings and agenda. Your role is servitude. His is loving, kind leadership and protection. If men and women would live this way, marriage would be wonderful.
A mans role as a leader already encompasses his acting with kindness, respect, servitude, guidance, compromise, and mercy. A leader must have all these attributes in order for him to be in the Will of the Father. A leader has more to account for because he has more power. This power used together with the above listed attributes promotes love, fellowship, devotion, trust and dedication.
A womans position is not degrading or less important, but one of tenderness, co-operation, wisdom, insight and devotion. One role is not greater or less than the other. One will not work without the other. The positions are crucial to the Heavenly balance set up by the Father. Mutual respect…..two different equally important roles carried out with the priority of seeking God ‘s Will FIRST before setting on any course in life will produce peace, happiness, endurance, loyalty and a deep devotion to each other.
