    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I really like the way you have explained this and the resources/scripture you have provided. In your marriage how do you find this relationship with your wife benefits from these roles? I tend to be stubborn, though I am becoming decreasingly so the more I pray and study scripture and...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I have been thinking a lot about this post, and what it means to subject to my husband. In your own thoughts on the relevant scripture, what does that mean? I am trying to better follow the path I feel has been set out for me and to live my life as a more wholesome, spiritual, fulfilled...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I will also say, though, that since I have stopped snapping at my husband when I am flustered or feeling uncomfortable, our communication has vastly improved. He has told me that he feels closer to me as a result and is happy that he married me. When I start having moments of self doubt I have...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    Thank you. Improvement is my main goal, as well as strengthening my marriage and my husbands sense of esteem and worth as a spouse and person. I know I have a lot to work through, still, particularly when it comes to the "Why?" questions. I feel like my chances were slim from the start -...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I struggle with penance/self punishment a lot. I am trying to learn to be kind to myself so I can, in turn, be kinder to others. But I am so critical of myself and there has been so much negatively in my life. It is hard to reconcile that those negative experiences in my life were Gods plan...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I hope so. My therapist says I run too headlong into my feelings, that my mind is in overdrive and I need to learn to stop that. I have trouble with those feelings, though, but I am trying to improve daily.

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    I appreciate your perspective. I think I struggle with expecting 110% of my husband when my actions have hurt him so grievously in the past. Neither of us are blameless, but we are both working towards better trust and communication. I have been finding myself praying throughout the day for...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    Thank you for this. I agree with the sentiments and thoughts displayed here. I am just struggling with reconciliation. By that, I mean how do I reconcile my mistakes with my desire to be a better wife and person? I know that the way I live now is damaging and will inevitably ruin everything...

    Guidance in being a submissive wife.

    Good morning! I see another similar thread on this topic, however my circumstances are somewhat different and are (arguably) very painful to talk about publically I have recently been brought back to my faith in the Lord, after having been astray for many years. During those years my...
