Today, I head to Tucson. I am so privileged to speak at an E-Free Church in the Tucson Valley. My subject: Marriage.
Actually, that's just about the only subject that I take requests for.
Why?
Because God's heart is for marriage and many are in a mess today.
What's the title of my message? The Woman's Place
What's my text? Ephesians 5:33
Why is that my choice? Because (generally) women don't understand what it means to reverence their husband. Generally, women don't have a clue what it means to come under the (mantel) authority of their husband. They don't understand that their husbands havent earned the position - it's been given by God. Whether a husband likes it or not, he's been positioned (and will be responsible for) a place (in the marriage relationship) of authority.
Anything God says for a woman to do - He gives wisdom and simple practical how to do its.
Here are some synonyms of the word reverence:
admire
value
show consideration for
follow
high opinion
defer to
esteem
worship
awe
amazement
veneration
devotion
love
regard
appreciation.
When we apply God's word, it work. If it's not working, it's because it's NOT been applied, or it's been misapplied. So, what do you think?

Great Post! We need to be reminded of that often. God's ways always work!
Hi Abbi (thanks, again :-) for the post!
YES...His ways work if we apply them. I was just telling a friend tonight that IF we apply the Word to our life - it'll work (not alway how we think) and if IT'S NOT working, then we've misapplied it or haven't applied it.
blessings to you!
