    I think it’s worth noting that most of us grew up in households where our mothers submitted wholeheartedly to men who were not great leaders (abusers, cheaters, financial illiterate, etc) and because of that most of us women vowed to never blindly submit to men because we viewed it as a weakness that our mothers had.
    Personally I find it hard to submit because I was raised or rather “trained” to submit my future husband. I hated every bit of it because why am I taught at 15 to submit to my future husband while my brother doesn’t get trained to be a great leader for his future wife? Why is it that the submission narrative is pushed so much more than the leader narrative? Most men can go their whole lives without being told/taught how to be a great husband.

      Good point. As a man, I whole heartedly agree with you but fortunately your great mothers “trained” you to be amazing wives but us men had no leaders or father figures to “train” us to be great leaders.
      And society continues to pay the price for that.

    I'm a licensed couples therapist here in the US and I absolutely love how you guys navigate through tough conversations like these. I believe that you both are right. A wife's lack of trust (submission) is a reflection of her and should not be taken personally by her husband but because we are humans with emotions it is almost impossible for husbands to not be upset. Husbands have every right to navigate through their own upset about this with God, just as wives should navigate thier lack of trust with God. As mentioned, things become harmful when those upsets & doubts are thrown at eachother. I love you guys! Keep making content like this, it's so needed!

    I always struggled with submission. After listening to Iyanla Vanzant in an interview recently and she mentioned how a lot of women are men in skirts. Basically, she was saying we show up with masculine energy. It was a light bulb moment for me. I grew up in a very patriarchal home, my father had the final say on everything. Viewing this as a child and how my mother seemed not to question, it created a belief in me that femininity was a weakness. For most of my childhood, I emulated my father more than my mother. My guard goes up whenever i feel like im being told and not asked.

    I feel like I agree with Mrs Makhs when she says "don't take it personally" and to me, I understood it as "you will feel some type of way about it, we can't control how we feel, but give me the grace to know that I am not doing this as a personal attack to you, don't take it personally"

    At 25-27 min my heart broke for Phethola. Although she attributed her mood to tiredness, I feel her struggles with trust have a deeper root that needs to be explored more. I think primarily, it could be that trust puts us as women in a vulnerable position. When people fail us , we develop defence mechanisms that keep us safe from disappointments, hurt and unmet needs. Those walls are particularly what we struggle with as women in marriage. Our primary need is safety so if we've been let down in the past, we unintentionally monitor, question, argue, pester, fight to avoid the feeling of being let down because it really hurts.
    On the other hand, I think as you rightfully said, we all need to give each other grace in the area of submission and leadership. I feel Lerato has a strong need for trust. This affects him because it affects his confidence as a man. When Phethola says, "dont take it personally", I feel it dismisses his emotions and make him go into his shell which is painful.
    I am so proud that you brought up this Convo guys, so many people struggle and never work through these issues.

That she can see when she’s wrong and takes ownership of it and vocalizes it to her husband, something that some wives (including myself) find really difficult to do. I’m inspired to start having these really vulnerable conversations that I’ve been shying away from for a long time.

    I cried a lot in the beginning of this video because I realised that I resonate a lot with Mrs Makh ,she 100% articulated the root causes of my current struggle (trust) I am experiencing in my relationship and I know for sure had I not listened to this video I was going to struggle even more to fully submit to my future husband .
    I met my first boyfriend when I was 24 years and I think being independent for a very long time contributed a lot to this struggle and honestly I wasn’t aware of the harm it can cause to my partner but after listening to this video I had to do a lot of self introspection and ask God to help me. I will definitely share it with him so that he can also play his part😊
    I love the fact that I didn’t only cry but also laughed through out the episode.

    I remember reading this devotion that convicted me, at basically said God will bless you for your obedience as a wife. So when you submit to your hubby as unto God He will bless your obedience. So even your hubby's bad decisions the Lord will work it out together for your good simply because you were obedient to God's word. That really helped me see Submission differently

    41:07 😅 I stand to be corrected, I think what Lerato is trying to preach is that wives should trust God and that wives submitting to their husbands should be as a result of their trust in and submission to God first, not as a result of wives trusting their husbands, but it doesn't take away from the fact that they'd want to be trusted by their wives and it really does hurt learning that they are falling short in some areas that they'd want to be good and fully trusted in. ❤❤❤ This episode has blessed my heart so much.

    Allow the man to have his feelings. He desires that you trust him and when that desire is not met (for whatever reason) it will disappoint him and hurt him. Allow him his experience. He understands where you’re coming from, but that understanding doesn’t change his emotional experience

      I agree. This conversation was a bit unfair for me. I feel like Pheto was a bit unfair to Lerato. She attributed her inability to submit to Lerato's lack of leadership. She took responsibility, but not really. She passed it on to him. It was uncomfortable for me to watch.

  • @mirandamasego4826
    @mirandamasego4826 Год назад +11

    What a wholesome conversation❤
    I love the submission definition. Also, I agree with Lerato that submitting isn't supposed to be conditional because it's a command from God. Same as "Do not murder" for instance. We are not supposed to rely on our feelings but the Holy spirit working in us to be obedient to God. It comes with humbleness also. When Jesus was about to be crucified, He asked God if there wasn't any other way to carry out God's plan, He however submitted to God's will above his own.
    Stephanie Ike once mentioned that marriage is like an office in God, men as leaders are ought to create an environment where women can strive in their divine gift as wives of which submission is one of them.
    God created marriage for a divine purpose, for His Kingdom. The enemy doesn't like that hence we have a woke culture that goes against everything the Bible says. Satan's plan is to discredit God that how he created things to be aren't how they are supposed to be.
    When I often to trust God, I know my feelings are wrong because He's the all knowing God, I can't even trust myself. God knows best.
    I love you also mentioned that we cannot do it without God. But truth is we are not without God, as born again Christians we have Christ living in us, and we have the mind of Christ.

    This was really good. I feel like we need a part 2 of this 🥺
    From a woman’s perspective I think we as women find it hard to submit because we think that it’s letting a man control us and also most of us grew up in homes where we never saw what submission looked like, we actually saw the opposite, hence why we might fight it at first.
    So when we get into relationships like marriage we unconsciously practice what we saw growing up.
    I think we need more conversations like this and also from the women’s side to teach our new generation that there is power in submission, and you submitting as wife does mean you are weak at all, it’s the opposite

    You know, what you guys talk about here is quite something. We all need to have more of these talk as couples. My husband would normally credit and it would make me feel uncomfortable, cause in all honestly I give credit to God. So I always tell, it God, not me. I had to unlearn a lot of things regarding love, and showing that to my husband. So I simply would pray constantly for God to make me love my husband the way my husband need. And thats where it started.... because my kind of love may not be the kind of love my husband needs. Mind you, I love my husband very much! but the more I leaned on God for that, the more I saw positive growth and affirmation from my husband.

    If anything this conversation has done is to broaden my mind and sharpened my lens about marriage. May you continue to be so bold and real about real issues.
    Submission becomes easy when the leadership has a clear vision and when the vision is painted boldly. I also think that as women we eventually submit to vision especially when the vision comes from God who gives it to the husbands.

  • @thulinkosi
    @thulinkosi Год назад +2

    You know this conversation is so deep, I’m reminded of when I’m speaking to my partner as well about things of God, sometimes we find ourselves literally saying the same thing but keep going in circles in disagreement because one has not yet had the revelation, or giving every explanation you can give about a thing yet the person still doesn’t get it until “Will Smith” or “Stephanie Ike” says it one day and a they get a light bulb moment, that is when the revelation from the Holy Spirit comes upon the person.
    Lerato is making a fair point about taking it personally when Petola doesn’t trust his leadership (as a servant of God, and a spiritual leader for his family) and Petola is also making a fair point of giving each other Grace when it comes to submission and headship. Therefore, Lerato shall give you Grace at times of lack of trust and Petola shall give Grace when your spirit is grieved by her lack of trust.
    I also struggle with full submission to God or to my partner but it takes work , awareness and intention.

Indeed it is an uncomfortable subject especially for us wives and a requirement we often struggle with. But thank God for such platforms. We learning, unlearning and relearning. We shall come out the best versions of what God wants us to be - to submit as wives (Ephesians 5:22)…and yes, it was cathartic 😍🤩

  • @lilyuupindi
    @lilyuupindi Год назад +4

    Carthatic 💖
    What stood out for me is what Mrs Phetola was trying to emphasis that we have our seasons of finding it difficult to trust God (our heavenly father) which could ultimately make it difficult to trust mere man (and this can include our spouse, earthly parents etc.) and this is not intentional. What Mr Lerato is also trying to emphasis on is that when we do have seasons of mistrust like the Israelites did, it grieved God. So if this grieved God (heavenly father), how much more our spouses (earthly beings) - It is okay to take it personal.
    Always so refreshing to learn from you BOTH ❤. Thank you for your vulnerability 😊. God bless you ALL.

I love that Stephanie Ike mentioned that if one isn't wholly submitted to God , it will be hard to submit to your husband... Submission should not be mistaken for weakness and being a doormat door though. and to the men, to lay your life down for your wife is also not conditional🙂

    Yeh submission is quite a topic!!! Not even from a place of 'being anti submission or being faminist in marriage" but from a point of Saying, Trusting (submitting)your man in arears where he has display some failures or have let you down,
    And im not even talking about unfaithfulness noo, arear such as being in a position where he is unable to provide for the home and it is something that you feel could have been avoided,
    So at that times as a wife you just dont know if ar thus time and going foward can i trust him to make right decision (i.e submitting to his leadership in this area )
    To the point of Mrs Maks-which is a beautiful summery "If husband cant follow through it's hard to trust that they will follow through for us"

I mean I relate to both sides, the trusting of me as a helper but also the inability to fully trust my husband with leading, both have lead to breakdowns in our relationship. What a powerful sermon and I’m going to call it that because you were preaching.

    Cathartic, that was a very insightful conversation. I think submission and love should not be expectations that one holds for the other because you will be disappointed. Expect nothing, and you will receive everything!

    First of all, cathartic 😂 Second: I understand what Phetola is saying about “taking it personally” because I have felt the same in relationships. But where I think we need to grow is understanding that the knowledge of the “why” doesn’t absolve anyone from the experience or how something makes you feel. That’s why even when we have all the tools, we don’t always do what we know we’re supposed to.

  • @ladysbhekamageba4531

    Great conversation guys.I think we need to trust God in our husbands. Because if we trust God in them, we will be able wait (in faith)as long as it takes for our expectations to be met. We trust the Creator that he can put the desire in them to meet our expectations conveniently.

    I really love how you guys have these difficult conversations to show us that it is possible to talk through it... We might not even agree with each other at the end of the day but the important thing is you can pick and understand where the other partner is or where they are coming from on that particular subject. Thank you so much the Makhs for being vulnerable and unpacking such a touchy subject...

  • @GalaletsangSeema

    I have to say this, this channel always brings me closer to God.. the world is so corrupted that sometimes we sway too far off the grid and not follow Him

  • @estinafrancis
    @estinafrancis Год назад +2

    I must say I agree with Lerato’s perspective on the trust issue. If I say to someone “I don’t trust you” it IS personal, and it’s unrealistic for that person to not take that statement personally because I’ve essentially indicted them for not being trustworthy. Whether or not it’s part of the ebbs and flows of relationships, that kind of sentiment/accusation won’t land easy. If someone said to ME “I don’t trust you,” I’d take it personally-not to then go on the defensive, but to search my heart for why they have concluded I’m not trustworthy. Having our faults and failures called out hurts even if called out by someone we love. Grace is due on both ends. (Words in caps are for emphasis, not yelling.)
    I came back to add, that I DO understand Phetola’s perspective as well. It hurts to discover I’ve grieved God and/or loved ones. (I often beat myself up about it.) God takes it personally when we don’t trust Him, but He also extends grace to help us renew our minds and cleanse our hearts to the point that we CAN trust Him. Without faith it’s impossible to please Him. His grace affords us the opportunity to grow in our faith so that we can please Him.

    Awesome podcast as always. We need to stop thinking submission=slavery/oppression.... I think that's why most times we women just at the mention of the word.
    Learned alot today and this opened up my eyes 'wide'! Trust goes with submission ...powerful.. we must just trust God and just submit(no excuses, we should all play our rolls accordingly). Show grace always knowing that we also not perfect.
    I am really blessed by this installment.
    May God continue to grow you both in your marriage cause you doing great. I pray that you keep winning together as a family.

    These are really good conversations. My mom introduced me to your channel when I was in grade 8 which is 2 years ago. I am now in grade 10 and I have grown to love you even. This installment was about submission but I learnt a lot from your words that I can apply in other areas of my life as a teenager in christ.. Mr Makhs said that "God's standard is against the flesh so much that it is nearly impossible to meet it without him".. That anchored my heart.. Mr Makhs said "Explanation isn't equals to Justification".. A lot of times when my mother reprimands me for doing something bad I think that just because I can explain why I did it, it means she must take my actions.. But now I understand responsibility from your words.. I love the fam❤.. You are making an impact more than you think you are... From a 15 year old.. I love you ❤
