I am listening to KGMS and these are my notes and thoughts.
Submission with loving leadership..
Boys need to be taught to lead their wives in love. Men need respect, women need love. Dad is the leader of the home. He ALWAYS deserves respect! The children see their mother respect their father as the head of the family. God designed marriage. Husband nor Wife can fulfill their roles if they are selfish! If you are selfish, you CANNOT have a God blessed marriage. It is MANS resposibility to be the leader.
Live Ephesians 5 through Philippians 2.
I lovingly following my husband..God is in control. My husband does not demand that I do it his way. I do things his way to show him respect. My husband has a higher priority to me than my children. First comes God, then my husband, then my children.
By submitting to my husband I am acknowledging my dependence on him. I am dependant and I enjoy that dependency.
There is something inside of women, a fear that if we are not in control of our lives that we freeze up. – Genesis 2 & 3 Eve was not willing to turn to Adam to trust him in the leadership. Adam should have spoken and told her ” do NOT”. Eve was placed in the Garden of Eden to be Adams Help! I am here to be my husband help! He is here to be my leader.

I am going to be 37 years old next weekend. I do not think I am too old to have another child. But, I made the mistake of getting my tubes tied 13 years ago. Now, I am so wanting to have another child. I am not really talking to Marc about it for many reasons. One of them is that it is useless because I am spayed.
I talk to other people who have young children, and it makes my heart ache. I have 3 young children staying the night here because they want to go to church with us in the morning. I look at them sleeping and it brings tears to my eyes. I so long to have another baby.
We went to a couple of yard sales today and I kept noticing all of the baby items. I went to Walmart yesterday, and I walked by the baby department twice. I kept noticing all of the cute baby clothes.
We went to a childs birthday party this evening and one of the mothers there was a terrible parents. The father was useless too. My heart broke for their poor baby.
My heart aches for another child. I am excited in one way because in 5 years, all of the children will be growed ups and able to be on their own. But the rest of me hurts because I cannot have another one. I would love give Marc a child, but I can’t do that.
For those of you who read this and have small children. Take time to enjoy them for me.
