All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

What can we men do to be better leaders, at home as husbands, as brothers, as boyfriends, as fiancé’s?

Sanctus Real - “Lead Me”

I look around and see my wonderful life
Almost perfect from the outside
In picture frames I see my beautiful wife
Always smiling
But on the inside, I can hear her saying...

“Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, what about us?

Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone”

I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes
They're just children from the outside
I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine
They're independent
But on the inside, I can hear them saying...

“Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?

Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone”

So Father, give me the strength
To be everything I'm called to be
Oh, Father, show me the way
To lead them
Won't You lead me?

To lead them with strong hands
To stand up when they can't
Don't want to leave them hungry for love,
Chasing things that I could give up

I'll show them I'm willing to fight
And give them the best of my life
So we can call this our home
Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone

Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone

Our society used to believe that the character of true manhood was that they put the needs of women first. A husband was devoted to one woman, to love and serve her needs with devotion, but the entire culture was designed that men protected and gave deference to women as part of their honor code. And, women were called to respect men.

Today, our culture is doing everything else but that: we simply do not live that way any more. Men trample on women and women treat men with the most disrespect ever seen.

>>That's one of my favorite songs.

>>Men are to use their authority to serve women. ...to bring to maturity.

You got it beloved. Well said:
