Equals
God created men and
women to be partners with neither being above or below the other in
power. When we understand that we were created to have different
responsibilities but one purpose, we can grow together and accomplish all that
God has asked of us. Our families run smoother when we are working as
one. Our children learn how to work, love, forgive and sacrifice when
they see us demonstrating these things.
When we make
our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ the center of our lives, we gain strength
from them as we strive to live righteous, peaceful lives. Having separate
responsibilities does not mean that we do not help each other. It does
not mean that one person’s contribution is more important or valued that
another's. It means that our loving Heavenly Father designed us both with
divine attributes that make us best suited for the jobs he has asked us to
do. Husbands and wives who are devoted to God and to each other can have
peace and happiness amid the chaos of the world when each is doing their best
to fulfill their responsibilities to their spouse and to God.
