Order of authority.

Well, it's not my husband, and I've been pleading with God for years for a change.

But nothing.

I'm sorry nebula, but you lost me? Is this in regard to someone else's relationship/husband?

Great topic, angels.

I expect my wife to be 100% submissive to me as long as it is in accordance with the word of God.

In order for things to run smoothly there cannot be a battle between the headship in the home.

Honestly, I think the woman has it pretty good. I take care of everything and all she has to do is:

a) take care of the children

b) take care of the home

What a wonderfully stress-free life that is.

But, I do help with the chores and the kids because I enjoy it.

My wife and I do Bible studies together in the evening and that really helps to keep us in unison.

God bless.

*Oh, and yes, I am under my husband's authority, and TRULY want to be!  He cares deeply for his family and even more so for his God, so there is no other place I'd rather be, but under his care*

In His Love,

This whole question really results with the symptoms we experience as a result of the Fall in Genesis

Trust were you being funny or serious

stress free does not discribe rasing children cleaning house cooking washing cloths kids etc. I could get a bit testy over your comment but will not!!!!!

there used to be a saying

if women had the fisrt child and man had the second child there would be no third child and if woman took care of the house one month and the man took care the second month a maid would be hired the third month

You do a great diservice to house wives with your commment Trust

if meant as a pun then I apologize here and now

In Christ

It's the spiritual authority over my life.

I was being humorous, but what I said was true the same time.

My wife goes away frequently for days at a time and I play "Mr. Mom." I do the cooking, cleaning, changing diapers, washing clothes, etc. and would quit my day job in New York minute to do it full time. As a matter of fact, my house is the cleanest when I am home alone with the kids. I have a little bit of a stronger work ethic than my wife and I life to clean things up promptly, rather than letting a mess sit around for 3 or 4 hours before addressing it.

It is a much more fulfilling thing to spend your days with your children then it is in the business world... for me, anyways.

Sure, there can be tough moments, but the good definitely outweighs the bad.

Plus, she never has to be concerned about money, deadlines, or anything else.

She even tells me how great it is that everyone is just "handled."
