That principle applies to sons and fathers to some extent, and certainly to husbands. A woman is a powerful force in changing a man if she makes him feel safe. A man often isn't going to risk changing unless he feels like there's a woman who will love him whether he changes or not. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Peter%204:8&version=NIV 2009-10-02T10:37:02-05:00 To love unconditionally requires willful sacrifice. We can learn how to love from the example of Christ and get a refresher from 1 Corinthians 13, but to truly love so deeply that we begin to "cover over a multitude of sins" requires a life lived in daily submission to the will and lives of others.
