Home Sweet Home

That was the title of the message and here's how it starts...
Ephesians 5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.

OK, so I made it back to church today after missing last week thanks to the Houston trip. I knew that Sunday School would be about generosity. There's a building plan going on after all. And then church. I really expected something a little patriotic for Veteran's Day. The songs would play, I'd cry...overall, a good time. But no. Instead it's a "family" message. Husbands love your wives. Wives respect your husbands. And children honor your parents.
Yawn.
I know several women who just get all offended over this, especially if it's a part of wedding vows. I've heard the lunch discussion. And I just totally shrug my shoulders. It literally has nothing to do with me. And I was surrounded on all sides so I couldn't even make my grocery list.

Pretty sure that's an improper attitude for the whole thing. I'm just not really sure what to do about it. Maybe I should search out another message for today.
