IN SEARCH OF FRIENDS

Its indeed saddening to note that after the many lovely "Ï Dos", couples soon settle into a template... "i am the man, the head of the family, i decide what happens, when it happens and how it happens" the woman is expected to "submit" to the man.
So, what happened to those days when friendship was cherished? During courtship it didn't matter who was head or tail or as some people have termed the woman, a neck. All that mattered was friendship. deep tender loving friendship.
As friends, it was easier to communicate with one another, it was easier to relate but the moment many marry, issues of submission, respect, etc. start to divide.
Am i going contrary to the scriptures that says the man is the head of the woman? No! even that came about because of the curse of the law in Genesis but come to think of it...didn't Jesus die to end all Curses? It is important to note that God made it that way to give direction and for peace to exist so that an atmosphere will be created for God to bless, prosper and lead.

Also, when Paul called the man the head of the wife, he compared it to the headship of Jesus over the church. it means that the love of God towards us all should be replicated towards the woman.
Jesus taught that love is all that matters, it is not race, position, social status but sacrificial Love.
As a man, remember the friendship you cherished with your spouse before marriage, sweet? you can bring back those sweet warm days again. take a trip back into the past and woo her all over again.
Think about how he came like a knight in shinning armour, lady, see him as your knight, your champion. homes are looking for friendship.
Friends in love, friends as husband and wife, friends as parents and children.
In search of friendship.
