LOVE, HONOR, and OBEY....

I feel the exact same way, this is what marriage should be about. This is what I want my life with my husband to be. People have strayed too far from this ideal. This is why marriages don't work out much any more. They fall in love for the wrong reasons and when they have their fill. They want to divorce and move on to the next person.

Love is so many types,mother's love .father's love,friends love.Love is connected to honer.In love all are obay with any other. That also connected to love .Three in one.

My Sweetheart and I don't believe in woman obeying her husband. We believe in loving and respecting eachother as the miracles that we are, and that we are each to the other, a gift from God, and that we will love eachother more than we love ourselves, and that we truly become one because we are equal to eachother. We become one not because he is the head, but because we are joined by our souls and our hearts. We are joined together in love. We treat eachother equally, and lovingly. The miracle is that we have found eachother to be so perfect, one for the other. My Sweetheart does not respect submissive women, nore do I respect men who think they must lead all the time. We are in this together, and we will wlak beside eachother. An old quote goes as follows. Don't walk infront of me, I will not follow Don't walk behind me, I will not lead Walk beside me and be my friend. We believe in perfect harmony, not one leading the other. Maybe love honour and obey is OK for your marriage, but not for ours. Our way isn't the only way, nor is yours. Eatch must do what works for her/himself. I'm also keeping my name when we get married!!!

nice facts!!!!

Very well said. I hope those who could read this will learn from these words of wisdom. But sometimes, things are easier said than done. Though how hard we try to keep our married life smoothly sailing there will always be temptations, problems and points of disagreements that would lead to hurting each others feelings. I, myself, is guilty of sometimes starting small fights that would lead to speechless weeks in our married life. But now, I'm starting to learn how to eat my pride and accept my fault because I intend to stay in this relationship as long as I live.

I can only agree with you so far in that. Obey is well, so last hundred years or more ago. Women are NOT property. Women are NOT owned by their husbands. To have successful marriage, a man should NOT make all the decisions, and treat her like trash. A marriage is a commitment between two agreeing parties, and both of them are in it together. The man is not in the marriage for himself.

I understand what you are trying to say here but in a way it sounds like when you get married you got a slave.

I agree. After reading through a lot of these posts, I can help but conclude that the world in general and marriage in particular would be better and a lot more peaceful if the wife would just keep quiet and do as she was told. :)

Yes I agree with you Zoom about the two, husband and wife, becoming one. God want's us to have Godly marriages here on earth so that we could be examples to others and to also raise up Godly children unto Him. So when a man loves his wife as he loves himself and the same way that Jesus Christ love His body, the Church, then he will treat her right. And when the woman honors her husband she will esteem him very highly.

Obey? First off, I am not a child that needs to be told what to do. Secondly, I will not treat my husband as my king or lord. The only Lord in my life is God. I will however consider the requests that my husband makes of me and if I find them to be good I will most likely do them. If, however, I find them offensive or degrading, I will not do them. No one man owns me. I grew up being told that a husband should love his wife as Christ loved his church. The husband should care for and cherish his wife as something precious. A husband should view his wife as a gift from God. If a man does this, then his wife will want to do things for him and she would never need to "obey" him as her love for him would make her WANT to please her husband. If you have to get your wife to OBEY you, you are not loving her enough. At my wedding, we didn't even use the word obey in our vows. My husband at least understood that there was no way that he would ever get me to "obey" anyone but myself.
