I think that one element working successfully with our marriage is that of having a common source for conflict resolution. The bible and it's teachings on marriage.
Those who are interested might look at: Ephesians: 5:22 - 33, Col: 3:19, 1 Pet 3:1 - 7 Some of my most loved scriptures.
I believe love is so many of the things listed above and even more. For example, when the bible says a man must love his wife, it means:
He should sacrifice for her, listen to her concerns, take care of her, be sensitive to her needs and hurts.
BTW, many people think that a woman's submission is a act of weakness. That is not at all true as many on here will know, particularly one person who has positively referred to submission a couple of times recently.
I agree!
Husband is the head of the family
wife submit to your husband
it was hard sometimes, specially in English women ways
but
if you follow the scriptures
Blessing will comes!
to you & your family
"Praise be to the LORD, for he showed his wonderful love to me when I was in a besieged city"...
(Psalm 31:21)
