Only one person needs to be submissive and it is not me
Boy, you miss a word and changes the whole context of the sentence. What I meant to say is only one person needs to learn to be submissive and it is not me. It is her.
I am already submissive to Christ.
And AmyC, I guess I don't understand what you are saying.
Speak life over your home???? I don't get it.
Ephesians 5. Be subordinate to one another.
We were not. We have no chance of doing that now that she left. I asked her not to leave. Begged, pleaded, cried, and prayed. Asked everyone I knew for help and prayers.
Pushed her further away.
That verse doesn't pertain to my family though. It pertains to us.
Really AmyC, I don't see the point. What are you getting at. Perhaps the post a 3 AM was insolence due to a misunderstanding.
I'm pretty beat down. I start class tonight. Last night I had to discipline my children. They wouldn't listen. After 10 they are waiting for their mother and I'm trying to read and study for my upcoming class.
When she got there I wanted to talk to her about this scheduling issue, but she is just always in a hurry. I wanted to tell her on nights she works the children need to stay with me. School is starting tomorrow for them. They need to be in bed. Then I got sidetracked.
I tried to sleep. Then I had your post to think about. I wake up and write what I think. What is the relevance of what verses pertain to what God thinks about my family.
My children are disobedient. As is my wife. As am I to her. Perhaps I have too much pride. I lack patience. I'm an arrogant pompous know it all. I lack humilty. I fight is all. You Happy?
More beating myself up.
You know I was driving into work today and I figured out why my wife said she is aloud to work, because I work. The conversation had no relevance as to what we were talking about. Then it dawned on me. The conversation I had with her mother. I told her mother the answer to her daughters problems were for her to come home. Her mother said she wasn't going to tell her that. Now I know for a fact her mother spins things. I'm sure her mother told her that I don't want her to work and I want her to come home. Now that my wive's brain is all messed up that is the only thing she could say to me after Mass.
I'm sure of it. MIL is a story teller. I can only imagine what the woman says about me to the family.
