In the same way, you wives, be submissive to your own husbands so that even if any {of them} are disobedient to the word, they may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives, (1 Peter 3:1) Won without a word! Key phrase whether your dh is an unbeliever or not. Like Elisabeth Elliot says (paraphrased), “Tell your husband the good, and God the bad”…

We would all be good to do a whole lot more prayer and a whole lot less complaining. One of the great things about prayer too is that you can be yourself openly, that it makes a difference behind the scenes, and it allows for a good attitude to toward the person you may not agree with!

And that is a good thing! If her were easily swayed by my arguments, or my discussions, he would go the wrong way far more often. I am wrong far more often than he is. The hardest thing for me is when I see that he is wrong, I tell him, he refuses me, then I pray and he changes, but now here is the hard part.... ready?? NOT SAYING OR EVEN IMPLYING "I TOLD YOU SO". It is very hard for me to not imply that I was right. I really need to focus on just forgetting that I ever had a right idea in the first place! And be grateful that my husband is a man who seeks the heart of God and who God can influence and change so easily. This is a great post and one that is VERY important to a marriage.

That is the only way. God alone is the only one who can touch and change hearts. There is no one on this earth that can do that. That's all that I have and that's all that I need. Praying. That is the only way. God alone is the only one who can touch and change hearts. There is no one on this earth that can do that.

That’s all that I have and that’s all that I need.
