Grace for your spirit February 12,2010

Grace for your spirit
But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ. I Corinthians 11:3
A lot of men spend a great deal of time finding Bible verses about submission. They use these verses as a sledge hammer to beat women into the joy of submission. If a man wants a woman to be in submission, he needs to model submission in his life. When a husband lives a life submitting and yielding to Christ as his head, he will provide a model of submission in his house. When we love Christ as He loves us, and when we love our wives as Christ loved the church, submission becomes a joy, not a burden. In fact, none of His commandments are a burden under that kind of love. If we are looking for faithful followers, become a faithful follower. God has the order for us. With humility, service, and submission, don't demand it, model it like Jesus did.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
