Husband Quote by Lord Uzih
““What makes a successful marriage is not love. What makes a successful marriage is knowing your place in this divine covenant. A man is meant to love, and a woman is meant to submit. When you misplace your place, there is bound to be errors and chaos. Imagine a woman loving a man? She will be heartbroken cause the man is loving another. But when a woman is submissive to a man, the man is subjected by divine ordinance to love her, causing submissiveness to propel and activate love, no matter how you put it. Now, let's imagine a man submitting to a woman. Well, I have no explanation for that. It is appalling and not something anyone wants to hear. Love is shown by gifts (items, good treatment, kindness, etc), but submissiveness is shown by obeying, listening, and servanthood. Psychologically, a diligent servant has more respect than a son of the house who is arrogant. So, let's go back to the drawing board and make our marriages work””
