Proverbs 31 wife

I started off my day with prayer and concentrating on putting into action what Ephesians and proverbs say about being a wife. I'm taking care of the household and following my husband's lead. Instead of constantly arguing with him and waiting for him to do his part...I decided to take a different approach. I'm going to concentrate on doing my part regardless of his behavior. We can only change ourselves right? Well...today it has made me a much happier person and much better wife. I feel productive...i prepared food for my husband for the week, defrosted dinner, did the laundry and picked up the house as well as did my exercise to maintain my health. I've been talking nicely to My husband...sweet and with respect. I got the reaction from him that he was pleased and happy. He didn't want to hang up on thebphone with me today because he said he enjoyed talking to me. I'm hoping this change in me will help him take responsibility for his role as head of this house. It seems old fashion that whole concept of husband as the head of the house and wife having to be submissive. But the Bible says it best...it illustrates what God's idea of marriage what should be like. The wife shod be submissive to the husband and God and the husband needs to be submissive to God and love his wife as Christ loves His church. It's a beautiful concept and what a happy and fulfilling marriage that would be. I've decided to do my part and let the rest fall into place. Embrace my role as a wife and hopefully one day role as a mother. The role that God has given me.  Our purpose in life is a pilgrimage to find God and holiness. In a marriage, we are suppose to help each other get to heaven.
