Scripture | 1 Peter 3:1-12 (BSFL*) | Translation | NIV |
What God said to me | Yield to the authority of your husband. No, no, no….no ifs, ands, or buts…yield. It is My desire that you love and respect him with a pure and reverent heart. If he does not follow My desires for his life, I will deal with him. It is not up to you to make sure he is in My will. You are responsible for you. Strive for harmony. Live a life of compassion and humility. Love, love, love, love. After all, “the Gospel in a word is love.” |
What I said to God | I consider myself to be submissive to my husband, yet it seems that often I am submissive when it is convenient to be so. I want to trust You more to complete Your work in his life because You are right, I do have my hands full just trying to keep my own life on track. Teach me to love. |
