Since I got married, I have never one day thought of sharing my primary responsibility with my husband. He is the man of the house, the head for that matter. I am a support to him, to love, to uplift and to encourage him.

But these days, a wrong narrative of gender equality is what has destroyed many marriages. Young couple who just get married, before you know, they are divorced or the marriage has been called off. My sister, if you claim to be equal to a man, marry yourself then. But if you truly understand the beauty of divine roles, you’ll know that leadership is not dictatorship.

I have been implementing this and I have never regretted. My husband who also know his responsibility does it 100% and he never stops honoring me and replicating the love.

So, my sister, don’t let the noise out there confuse you. Know who you are, and walk in it with grace. When you marry right, you won’t feel suppressed, you’ll feel cherished. And when you play your part with love, the man God gave you will move mountains for you.
