Whatcha gonna do when your husband kicks the bucket? I've worked with plenty of Stepford Christian wives before; Submissive types don't usually fare too well when it comes to figuring shit out! Poor critical thinking skills, lack of motivation, and a general inability to multi-task are the side effects of leaving the heavy-thinking to one's huuuusband all of the time.
Learn to use that noggin, girl!
That's what it's there for.
If I haven't kicked the bucked keep on living my life because it does not depend on him. If what you say is true, which I don't doubt, they have made an idol out of their husband. My husband doesn't give me worth nor does he complete me. I was a full human being before I met him and I will be one after he dies. My life is hidden in Christ and He is the one I put my everything in. I appreciate you concern, but if you knew me you wouldn't be making this statement at all. I live with my husband and know his faults and he knows mine. I don't seek to find my identity in my Husband or children or job or intellect or looks all of that is passing away. I put my worth and meaning is Someone far more stable, I find it in Christ. He is stable firm, gives me strength and upholds me when things seek to take me out. He makes me bold and gives me worth. No one's ideas or opinions of me can change that not mine or my husbands.
