Two Lines
I heard a story of a man who died and went to heaven to find two signs above two different lines. One sign read: ALL THOSE MEN WHO HAVE BEEN DOMINATED BY THEIR WIVES, STAND HERE. And that line of men seemed to stretch off through the clouds into infinity, it was so long.
The second sign read: ALL THOSE WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN DOMINATED BY THEIR WIVES, STAND HERE. There was only one man standing there. When questioned what his secret was, he seemed puzzled. "My secret? I'm not sure I know. My wife just told me to stand here."
One final thought. Guys, if you're married to a strong woman, it can be tempting to just let her lead. But God has a better way. He has called you and me to be the servant/leaders of our wives. If we do it right, we'll be able to combat the natural drift toward isolation and conflict in our marriages.
I'm Dennis Rainey (which line are you standing in?), and that's Real FamilyLife.
