Once upon a time I never would have considered letting a man be the boss of me in a household. I thought we should be equal and sit down and talk out our differences or come to agreements. All these years later I think that, the way it is mentioned above, it might have not been so bad to surrender to my husband like that. I realize now that my reluctance to choose that in a man was because I did not trust myself to marry a man that was worthy of my surrender or that I trusted to be fair to me. I did not grow up in a household where I could see what a loving family was and if you did get love it wasn't the kind you wanted.

I believed in God from an early age even though God was never to be mentioned, seriously. The problem was I knew I wanted to be closer and I yearned for it and even considered becoming a Nun for a few years. How foolish of me because I did not know how to live a godly life, had no clue how to go about getting that connection. Now, I realize I have always had that connection and I was way closer than I knew. Knowing God has got your back makes all the difference.
