Well my wife and I are planning our winter vacation for next year already… this time we have some family members coming with us so we want to make sure we get the best deal (I am paying for it 
). I have my heart set on either going on a boating vacation or kayaking vacation but my wife has said NO to both of them. So since it is not a purely “ME” vacation I will submit on this one.
So why do I share this little sad story (not really sad). Well I think about how many selfish arguements we as married couples get into and are causes for such turmoil. Things like not goin with your wife to the inlaws or not renting that love story for your wife because it is to girly. Our spouses are to be the most important people in our lives and we need to treat them this way… the bible speaks of “submission” however if you read more you will see it also references respecting your wife. Submission is not that they submit to your every word but rather when the rubber hits the road they are to allow the husbands word to stand.. however respecting your wife means that if she has a better idea then respect that and let it stand, it means treating her as you would yourself, loving her and lifting her above your friends and your selfish desires.
