As grateful as we may be to our fathers for their provision and instruction, we know that we never would have reached the point at which our fathers could help us had it not been for the physical sacrifice of our mothers. Fathers are analogous to the surgeons who perform heart transplants; mothers are analogous to the donors who give the hearts.

Husbands, God has not given you a family that you may lord it over them, but that you may sacrifice yourself for them. Neither your personal comfort nor that of your spouse should be your primary concern, but rather doing the will of God by raising godly offspring.

God is telling you today, through the words of the Bible that I am repeating, that His Word and His principles are still literally true, and that true wisdom is found by serious, earnest and honest study of, faith in, and adherence to the Divinely Inspired Written Word of God.
