Doe Quote by Jennifer E. Smith

“I want my husband to lead me and our family. But in order for him to do that I must be willing to submit to his lead. This does not mean I surrender my opinions or input or wisdom...it means I surrender my grip of control and selfish ways and trust him!” quote by Jennifer E. Smith
