If I do not know who I am in Christ and I don't have a firm foundation of knowing my identity, value, and worth in Jesus - I may have a very dysfunctional approach if I try to respect my husband. When wives hate themselves, think they are worthless, think they are not as important as other people, and can't receive God's love and all that Jesus has done for them - they will need to heal spiritually first and learn to receive their new identity and new self in Christ. Then they are coming into the marriage from a position of great strength spiritually and they are filled up to overflowing with God. That is the place we need to be in order to be the godly women and wives God calls us to be. The goal is that we reverence Christ above all else, then we also respect our new self in Christ, our husbands, and others.
