My title for the writing this morning is part 36: One. In a marriage, there is a husband and a wife. That makes 2 people. Yes, that is right. " So, what is with the number one, Why is your title, One Sam?" Is that what you were thinking?
Well, now let me tell you. The number one is very important when it comes to marriage. Let me break it up in 3 ways of why I think that is so.
1st of all, let's look at sex. Well, not literally. But, just hear me out. Everyone knows that when the husband and the wife have sex, the number pretty much says it right there "2." Hence 2 people having sex
Now, let me tell you exactly what God says about that according to his word. He says in context. When a husband and wife have sex on their marriage bed, the 2 become one flesh. I don't think I need to elaborate more on that.
The 2nd reason why I think one is important when it comes to marriage Is working together. I think a good way to make my point is by taking a husband and a wife being parents. You all ever hear when parents play the parts of " Good Cop and Bad Cop?" Or maybe you guys actually are ones that played the parts?
Let me share with you what I just thought of right now. My Deep Thoughts are telling me Tell my readers there is no such thing!
Wives, Let's say for example, your child was not being very obedient to the parents. The father just about had it with his kid. His disobedience was getting to be too much. The dad knew it was time to put his foot down!
The dad took away all of the child's electronic devices. His computer, ipad, Playstation, The Nintendoswitch,Tablet, cell phone, etc. Anything this kid had to use for entertainment or to communicate with another human being went bye bye!
The mother just watched as her husband took away all of this stuff from the child's presence. The mom felt so bad for their child.
She couldn't take it anymore! So this is what she did. The wife spoke up and said this, " Babe, come on do you really have to take away all Of his electronic devices? Maybe you should just let him keep his phone! What if there's an emergency? (beginning to get quite dramatic and hysterical Now) Babe! Truth? Let me share God's truth and what he says in his Word. I know I've said it many times or maybe Glady has read it many times before in the Bible verses.
Question? Was the wife supposed to do what she did! What I mean Is was she Supposed to agree with her husband Or are you with him about the situation?
My answer to that is yes and no. But more no than yes. Well, More no than yes. Let me explain.
Of course I believe that wives should have their own opinion. However, I don't believe the wife should have said what she did and especially when she was still around the child. She was showing the child that She was being disrespectful to her husband By arguing With the husband.
Aww, Doesn't that make you kind of sad? I mean think about it your husband is suppose to be your Spiritual leader. That's what God wants. That's what he says in his word. Wives, we need to remember that our husbands are leading us, and that God is leading our husbands. Now, if you think about it GOD is not gonna lead our husbands the wrong way.So, That means our husbands are not gonna lead us in the wrong way. Right? Right!
The 3rd and final deep thought that I had is kinda similar to number 2. I say that because it still about the husband and wife working together. What I mean wife's is this. Wife's listen up when your husband tells you No you have to take it as it is. Don't argue about it don't fight about it and Don't try to make excuses, not You know what I think the safest way to go is to not say anything at all zip it up in other words. Believe me that would just make him mad and possibly yell and swear. And, he might Say something he may later regret. And Take it from me and probably other wives you guys don't want another thing I wanted to add was this, just let it go. I know there maybe times When it's hard but we have to let it go. Like I said before when you married your spouse, the two of you become one. It's like you guys are now working together on a team he is captain and you are Co-captain
Wife's please realize that because our husbands Do not like to show Their emotions or emote their true feelings, maybe they would still feel hurt. Not maybe but I truly believe that they would get hurt even if they don't show their emotions. Just a side note wives watch out for your husbands being mean,yelling or maybe even swearing. Because That can be their way of crying out to you that their mad because you disrespecting them. We wives maybe making them think we don't trust them. Oops, I think The Bible says something about submitting to your husband's. Let's see what The Bible has to say about this.
1 Corinthians 11:3
But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.
1 Peter 3:122
Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, when they see your respectful and pure conduct. Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husband.
Colossians 3:18
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
