Ok Darlene, while I consider myself a fairly avid reader of yours, in the interest of time I was going to pass up your post today. But I have to tell you that was a brilliant perspective on today's article!
ReplyDeleteSometimes in our daily struggle in family life and life in general, it is hard to think about "loving" your husband in a submissive, romantic way. I've been there and have helped other women who have been there. But when you think about loving your husband as being his friend, well, we can all do that. When our husbands are being insensitive or whatever and we are really struggling, all we need to do is tell ourselves, "Just focus on being a good friend to him, and overlook his imperfections." We do that for other friends and unsaved people we try to reach out to. How much more do our husbands deserve that kind of treatment? I truly believe that once we have that kind of attitude, everything else will fall into place. So, in essence, instead of beginning with romance and "duty," begin with a commitment to a deep friendship and the "duty" part will turn into a privilege and an honor.
Your comment added so much for the post. Thank you, Dianne!
