If You Want to Be in Charge - You Will Have to Protect Yourself 

Some of my thoughts on how we as women sabotage our relationships when we take charge and how we can experience our husbands' love, protection, provision and adoration as we seek to obey God's Word for us as wives.
We are of EQUAL value. Men and women are both equally precious in God's sight. Galatians 3:28. But we are not the same. Our culture tells us we should have the same roles in marriage. But God gives husbands and wives different roles for important reasons (Ephesians 5:22-33). As we embrace our God-given roles, our marriages will be stronger and healthier and our husbands will be free to become the men God desires them to be and the men that we need and want them to be, too!
(If you have severe issues in your marriage - alcohol/drug addictions, uncontrolled mental disorders, actual abuse, etc... please seek godly, biblical, experienced, wise help for your situation one on one. I am not able to address these kinds of serious situations.)
