Anthony and I have been married for almost 10 years and are just now starting to figure it out. For us, it is a mutual respect for God and each other. I want to be the wife that deserves respect, love and trust and he wants to be the husband that deserves the same. To do this, you must put God first. Everything else falls into place for us. I have also just come to understand that Anthony, my husband, will be held accountable to God for my actions as well as our children's reactions. This astonished me. I never looked at it like that before. As soon as I learned of these verses in the Bible, it made me look at my choices differently. I don't want to do anything to cause him to stumble. I want to aid him in being our family leader. That is submission to me. It's still a very large work in progress for us though, lol.

Submission is truely being submissive to God and what he has in store for our lives starts to bloom beautifully when we work on submitting. For each woman it seems to be so different. Some of us excell in some areas while others excell in different areas and all of our earthly and Godly relationships are at different stages. So applying submission in our marriages will probably all look different for each of us, but a commmon link should be serving. Serving God, our famlies, friends and even strangers :) Great Q&A loved the question about her son. Its crazy to think about it , but what we do and say in our marriages greatly impacts their future and how their own marriages will be built. #mywifelife JenniferWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12060481253661947160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-7668347190208937362013-07-30T20:17:21.642-05:002013-07-30T20:17:21.642-05:00I love question 4, as it is something I struggle w...I love question 4, as it is something I struggle with myself!

Baby steps!! At least I haven't verbalized it! I am learning to be careful with my tone and my words when we disagree. I want to show my husband respect even when we are not in agreement and even when I really want to say "I told you so!" ;)<br />Stephanie @Crayon Marks and Tiger Stripeshttp://www.crayonmarksandtigerstripes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-28617796236581089182013-07-30T15:16:11.501-05:002013-07-30T15:16:11.501-05:00Submission has and always will be a work in progre...Submission has and always will be a work in progress in my life! :) Lovely blog post; Sara's books are all amazing and have been such a blessing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-8704982330618240582013-07-30T15:09:30.290-05:002013-07-30T15:09:30.290-05:00Loved the first question and the response to it:) ...Loved the first question and the response to it:) what a fantastic giveaway! Sara is an author who writes in a refreshing and honest way with a heart for God and His word, and a desire to share her thoughts and experiences as she draws nearer to Him. This book, like all of her others are not only a great read but a blessing to those who read them, and open their hearts (as Sara writes of) to God and His desire for each of us as Wives, mothers, and women of faith.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629911792617684775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-75206505267312259312013-07-30T15:03:20.884-05:002013-07-30T15:03:20.884-05:00Like Mandy said, I, too have a lot of work to do i...Like Mandy said, I, too have a lot of work to do in the submission area. But, it also has to do with your heart being in the right place. You have to want to work on something for it to change! I can honestly say, that as I am about half way through Sara's book, that I definitely need to work on my heart attitude!Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982012133675822484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-29865807742896984172013-07-30T14:59:13.534-05:002013-07-30T14:59:13.534-05:00I have a lot to work on in the area of submission....I have a lot to work on in the area of submission.

It's an interesting thing - to live out what God is calling us to do in our marriages in front of our friends and being mindful that they are watching.<br /><br />I am being blessed by this book for sure.Stacyhttp://servantslife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085494815688506093.post-30454879212161717002013-07-30T14:54:41.933-05:002013-07-30T14:54:41.933-05:00I shared this on Facebook for my friends to come a...I shared this on Facebook for my friends to come and comment :)Pattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11246904837775307023noreply@blogger.com
