Always living in the moment isn’t easy; there are so many distractions. But when you embrace each moment you begin to live life to its fullest.
Submission doesn’t mean wives are doormats, blindly carrying out orders. It means they’re willingly supportive of their husband’s leadership. Dignity, equality, and unity are the essentials of submission.
