During our last me2 meeting we talked about
becoming a humble woman. Being humble, and learning to submit yourself.
One of the things that triggered within me was
the point of submitting yourself to your husband. I realised that that was
something within me that I had to deal with, it was encouraging to see that I
wasn't the only one, there were more ladies who understood my struggle with
this. That is what I so enjoy about me2, you can be real about things because
we all are a work in progress.
So because during this Me2 meeting I
experienced this, I kept on thinking about it and I discovered something great!
Submission, being humble, I am almost "allergic" to it! Just like the word authority. But when I
asked myself the question "do you want to submit to God? Do you want to be
humble for Him? Do I then also respond in a negative, rebellious
way?" The answer for me was NO!
But then I realised that it is God who placed
me next to my husband. It is God's will to give me that position. I started to
see that by being rebellious towards my husband I was in rebellion towards God!
And that I don't want to be submissive and humble towards God! It was a real
eye opener to me! God doesn't ask of me to be humble and submissive to break me
or to humiliate me.
When I am humble and submit to my husband, I
am humble and submissive to God, and in doing this I honor Him!
