“…..Choosing to fall under my husband’s authority because I’m “supposed to” does not mean I am submitting. That is a choice, and is obedience not submission.
In order to submit to our husband’s authority, our hearts must be changed. We must allow God to work on our hearts, to bring them to the place where we submit to our husbands….”
Today I’m sharing in my dear sister, Sarah’s corner on the topic of Submission vs. Obedience. I hope you’ll swing by here to read the rest of the post.
Before you take off though, be sure to link up to Faithful Friday below!
Blessings,

Thanks for prompting me to think about the difference between submission and obedience. It’s not something I’ve given much thought to. And thanks also for hosting the link party! Always fun!

I am linking up late tonight so I will totally pop over there in the morning and read it! I appreciate it when women talk about submission because I think that so many people just don’t “get” it and think it means that we’re a doormat, lol! Thanks for hosting today.
