A (surprising) joy


Submission is a joy. It is the highest honour. It is a privilege and a pleasure to serve my best friend. True love is self-sacrifice. It means respecting the one I love, thanking him for his protection, care, provision, graciousness, kindness, generousity, pursuit of my heart and own self denial. Putting him first is what love is all about, giving up selfishness to be united, standing by his side, gladly following his guidance and prayerful leadership, working as team to together glorify God and proclaim His Gospel. We must be a reflection of the love so perfectly displayed on the cross of Christ. That is submission.
