God made uh Adam a suitable helpmate and he made that helpmate not because she's weaker but because God has given men a capacity and a responsibility that women do not have and we have to be honest about it we can say he's not a man he doesn't know how to lead he doesn't whatever there's still a capacity inside of him that God did not give us as women and one of the biggest examples that I can give of that imagine it's rain Ing and you're in New York City and if you've ever been to New York City or in France and it starts raining and people start selling umbrellas on the street those $5 $10 umbrellas they're not worth much but they get the job done until you get home imagine you have that man you have the man that gets the job done isn't anything special but he gets the job done that man no matter how little you view him is made to handle the rain you were not made to handle the rain but you were made to hold up that which can handle the rain if you didn't have that umbrella you would come back home smelling like what you were poured on what poured on you when a man comes back in as that umbrella he gets dried quickly water repellent it falls off of him and no matter how equipped you thought he was he still was built for the rain the difference also some of you want that nean Marcus umbrella some of you want the wood handle those things are heavy and if God gave you a man like that then you have to be the woman that can hold up that man because an umbrella that is not used it can be for the rain for the sun it Shields it provides shade it allows what's under it not to be tou touched We Are The Vessel not weaker we are the vessel that was meant to let the one that God gave us be held up and used for what he was made so now as a wife I want to say I don't want to get wet I don't want a sunburn my Skin's not built for that so instead I'm going to let the man be who he was meant to be and if God gave me which he did my man's about as heavy as this table that means God Made Me capable of holding him up if my man is not doing what he was made to do it's because I as his wife am not holding him up one thing I will credit myself to is that that man can come and do what God has him to do because on the back end he is being held up and held down not about me but to say this about submission if you think submission Miss is because the man is doing what you believe is right for a man to do then you've missed your assignment before God God will bless your obedience as being a wife the Bible's full of it Ephesians and Corinthians in the Old Testament just start looking for them and I please read love and respect it will change your life submission does not make you a weaker vessel it just makes you the part of the of the of the machine that is needed to function but entrusting somebody else's responsibility that that's what they were made for to do what God has made them to do so I value submission submit one to another is not in the same way he is not going to submit to me the way I'm going to submit to him that's not even biblical as he submits to Christ so I submit to him who has submitted to Christ if God has made the man the head of the house to love his wife as he is to love the church God is going to hold him to a standard God is also going to hold you to a standard and it's not going to be dependent on did you value him or did you do right by him because he did right by you or you did right by him because you did right by what God commanded you to do you will see a dynamic transformation inside of your home when you begin to obey his word submission is our safety as wives submission is your safety as a wife whether you have because I want to believe if you married him he has good intentions if even if he doesn't have or if you're with him or if you love him it's because you believe that's a good person even if they don't have it together yet keep trusting God but allow your heart to not be tainted if he's doing right by you God will make him do right by you God knows how to reach the man that he gave you so that you don't suffer and cry so your child doesn't suffer and cry and so you don't live in a house that is just like what you've always seen you will be the chain breaker of marriages and relationships and love in this life if you just do it God's way amen amen wow
