When a woman is heard and considered, she often recognizes she has been respected. And so does a man. It is logical then that compromise will be the more frequently used solution. A consensus can be reached through compromise. And if not, honored people can more easily submit than dishonored ones, and bitterness is prevented.
Submission is an offering of love.
This approach does not diminish the leadership of a husband. One of leadership's purposes is to contribute to the success of those being led, developing their abilities. A husband's Christlike example of love, diligence, strength, faith and peace can make a mighty contribution to the family. He will also find his wife strengthening him in these ways as they travel their spiritual journey together. He will value her leadership abilities in mutual respect.
