What some call submission is really subservience.
If you want control
If you require obedience
If you demand respect
If you want to bend her will
If your ego is sated by headship you’re lying to yourself. If authority makes you feel powerful you’re in denial. If you’re low in the world and submission offers the leadership you never had, you’re pursuing this for the wrong reasons.
It’s important to acknowledge your why and how you benefit. Especially in our culture. If it appeals to your flesh in any way you can’t ignore that. Because it’s not about you. If you need your partner to yield you’ve exceeded His intention.
True submission must be compelled. You can’t point to a text and expect someone to follow you. You must inspire that within her by the strength of your character and vision. If she finds you worthy she’ll hand you the reins. You can’t get it by force or coercion.
