The marriage institution is founded on love and it is built and sustained by love. And the greatest catalyst or fertilizer of love in the union is submissiveness. Submission is a precursor to marital love.
Submissiveness draws a wife closer to her husband and helps her to win his love and respect.
A man naturally likes to have dominion, to win. He is an aggrandizer. He is possessive. He enjoys being pampered, flattered and praised. He wants to hear “You are my hero, my king!” And the best place he can find this is from his wife.
Men truly love and crave for the company of their wives. She naturally reminds him of the comfort of his mother's breast as a child. This is why a man is usually protective of his mother, whose warm embrace protected and comforted him as a child.
As a wife, you can lock your husband in that same embrace and take the place of his mother in his heart, by obeying him, submitting to him, and pampering him. This way, he would do anything for you.
As a woman, when you submit to your husband, you do not lose your personality or position in the plans of God for your marriage.
A lady once asked, “Can I marry Tom? He is younger. I'm richer. But love him” The simple answer was “Yes”.
But she must be ready to submit to him; call him master, my oga, my king; wash his clothes; cook his meal and wake up earlier than everybody else to fix things at home!
Can you as and older and richer woman do all these and more for a younger guy?
You must realize that, as a woman, if you have all the riches and beauty in this world and yet you are not submissive to your husband, you are the poorest, most distasteful and ugliest woman a man can ever have.
If it is true that love is the foundation of marriage, it is equally true that submissiveness is the oil that will keep the lamp of love burning.
