Father God, some of the Apostle Paul's passages are difficult for today's women to accept. On the one hand, it's obvious that woman was created for man (as a helper, and so he wouldn't be alone), how we despise submission. And we should be careful who we submit ourselves to. We aren't asked to submit ourselves to an abusive relationship. But what beauty there is when a woman trusts her husband enough to submit, because he loves her as Christ loves the church, who loved us enough to lay down his life us. We submit ourselves to You, Father. We bring our minds and our bodies under subjection, offering ourselves to You a living sacrifice. Amen
