Men, being the head doesn’t mean that you’re going to be more intelligent than your wife, it doesn’t mean you’re going to be a better manager, a better coordinator or more spiritual than her.
Some of us will definitely marry a woman who will be more intelligent, more spiritual, and, in fact, wiser than us.
Sincerely, if my wife understands business better than me, I will gladly allow her to lead on that front.
If my wife is more prolific in public speaking, nothing stops me from giving her a platform to coordinate my TV show in the future.
If my wife is more spiritual than me, there’s nothing bad allowing her to lead the morning prayers while I learn from her.
I had to learn this early enough that being the head doesn’t mean I will be the most intelligent among the two of us, being the head doesn’t mean I will have to be the most spiritual among the two of us.
That doesn’t stop me from being the head. The head is the symbol of authority, and allowing her lead where my strength is weak doesn’t reduce me.
All this “I am the head, I am the head” is very unnecessary. we know you’re the head, sir & the neck is not dragging it with you, but can the head function without the neck?
You will frustrate the ministry of your wife (helpmeet) when you always try to silence her, women are there to help us and the bitter truth is that some of them are better managers than us, some of them are better coordinators than us, some of them are more financially disciplined & prudent than us, some of them will run the business better than us, some of them give better advises that will save your head from ugly troubles but the ego of “I’m the head, you cannot advice me or know better than me”, will not let you listen to her.
Where your strength is weak, her strength can be strong.
If truly the head has a head, he will listen to what a good wife is trying to say.
