Failure

Why does a family fail? In short it is because you fail to lead. The bible says the man is head of the household. I don't think this means that he makes all the decisions. It means he is willing to hear what his family has to say about the decision that needs to be made. If you and your wife are unable to compromise then your decision should be to lead your family in a godly manner. As head of the household it is your responsibility to lead your family in a godly direction. You should be teaching your family about god. You should be leading them in prayer. If your family is failing then you need to stop failing them and lead then to victory. I am not the best at this myself but I am trying to improve. And no ladies I didn't forget about you. As a wife you should submit to your husband. That doesn't mean you should do everything he says but it does mean you should respect him and his position. Being a leader is hard enough without having to fight with you about every decision we make. So you should remember you not are the head of the household. If the two of you can work together and find cohesion your family will benefit from it greatly. So start taking an active roll in your family and lead them to god and ladies let your husband lead your family to god. You will see it is worth the frustration it may cause in the beginning. Remember this may be the first time he has ever lead anyone and it will take some time to figure it out. So just support him any way you can.
