We women have to be gentle. It took me a long time to realize that.

[@teresatilden4467]

Gentleness is a virtue . It is easier to come by when our men are strong but kind . Men who are full, or overly mentally masculine .. who categorize roles too easily can drive their women into overly controlling behaviors .. .. then , it is unfortunately , more difficult to be meek it’s possible but difficult .

[@Jc-wz4uj]

Me too.. I have learned it the hard way and it was needed for my continuous conversion. U knw, a kind and gentle woman keeps a REAL MAN around no matter the hardship, cz through her resilient consistency she is spontaneously reminding him how he can also become his BEST VERSION OF A MAN , & this is recipe to overcome TEMPTATIONS & all resistance to the good nature human has been created to become🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ingoditrust7784]

This is very beautifully put. And very wisely, too, if I may say so. I was reading, a couple weeks ago, Maria Valtorta's vision of Her and Joseph going to Jerusalem to get Jesus recognized as an adult, when He was twelve. And, before leaving Nazareth, Beautiful Mary kissed Joseph's hand and asked for his blessing on Jesus and Her before undertaking the long journey to Jerusalem. I cried because the scene of the Immaculate Conceived kissing Her husband's hand and asking for a blessing is just so beautiful, so telling about the great chaste love She had for Her just spouse. And in a different dictation Mary explains to Maria Valtorta that She had turned Her just spouse into an Angel by the time he died. God Bless you always. Pax Christi

Im still learning it in practice, I know it intellectually but years of bad habits can be difficult to undo. I once lived very much in the world and worked a job that not many many would not do, let alone women. Thankfully God pulled me out of that and now I am blessed to be home with my children, but years of certain attitudes can be difficult to overcome. I am thankful for priests willing to speak on these topics.

[@im3369]

Thank you for this. I used to be a rebel wife until God put his mercy on me and I found Fr Chad Ripperger talks about marriage and it blew my mind it really changed me God gave such an insight that I didn't have to struggle I didn't have to be a rebel i didn't have to put my worlds burden on me but I had to submit myself and i did it with joy it took awhile but I felt so free. I was were I was supposed to be and be the woman God created me to be submitted to God and to man. Woman you will not find more joy in anything more then to submit. I really recommend listening to Fr Chad Ripperger on marriage and womanhood it will really change your life. God bless Father ❤

[@annetteg1174]

Yes!! Fr. Ripperger confirmed the longing in my heart to quit my job and stay home. I am happy taking care of our children, homeschooling, cleaning/organizing our home, cooking, and gardening. It's not easy but it is fulfilling. My husband gets to come home to an ordered home and a cooked meal. He's no longer stressed about after-school homework and activities. His main stress is to provide and protect. I've taken over the rest. It's a very busy life but I love it!

[@tinalettieri]

I'm happy for you. I got married in 1968 and had my daughter in 1970. That was an awful time to choose to be a SAHM and my husband admitted he didn't want a SAHW. That "marriage" ended in annulment. There were times I had to go out and work but I was a failure at every job I tried because it was basically against my nature. I hadn't been around younger children when I was a kid but having my own was a revelation. I knew that's what I was meant to be.

[@tandrew7175]

12:30 Yes! Unfortunately, nowadays just saying anything less than flattering can get validated as being abusive. My wife (who has threatened divorce 100+ times in just 7 years of marriage) considers it abusive that I describe her as running with the devil whenever she talks or threatens divorce. I can’t talk to her like a normal adult, because she considers anything critical as verbal abusive, even while stated matter-of-factly at a normal volume. What’s worse is that she’s been told that verbal abuse is physical abuse. Unbelievable! And she’s the one who is the cradle-Catholic between us.

This is so much consistent with Fr Ripperger's talk regarding the natural law and how chaos can happen so easily when it's disturbed, and interestingly becoming prone to demonic attacks.

[@JuneJarka]

I would be quite happy to wear dresses down to my ankles if required. I was raised to dress modestly. Men and women are built differently and we have different roles. That’s the way that God made us, and the way that He set up the system.

[@RestoreJustice675]

Many don't even consider God. Our society I believe is dealing with diabolic forces with men and women more than happy to go along with the ways of the world rather than God. This why it is so important for those who do truly believe to ratchet up their prayers and daily sacrifices. Many souls are running headlong towards perdition and in many cases only an act of God will save them. God needs us to as Paul tells us in Romans 12 : 1 "Present ourselves as a living Sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is our spiritual worship." ... God needs us to become living sacrifices, and people of action rather than just people of prayer. Prayer is good but prayer with sacrifice is better. Peter tells us "Jesus left us an example of suffering that we too should follow." There are so many who don't even consider these things, and I suspect many will be lost for not doing so. I just watched a KZbin video where Fr Mark Beard (St Helena Catholic church website) read a letter between a living nun and a deceased nun who was in purgatory. In it the nun in the lowest level of purgatory said that even Padre Pio, went to purgatory. If a man such as St Pio went to purgatory, how much more so will we. God Bless

Spot on sermon. @13:00 more is expected from the man and he has been the head of the family from the start, that is why God first asks Adam and not Eve why he ate the forbidden fruit (God already knew who ate first as He sees and knows everything.) Eve was drawn out of Adam and hence all of humanity is contained in Adam, a very big responsibility and noble one indeed for men, and blessed are the women who get to help out such responsible men.

It is not that it is difficult for the man to take our place as leader, but impossible. The man has the authority but not the power. When the wife does not comply, we can't force, can't punish, and can't divorce.

[@doasdid]

-Practice mental prayer (as suggested by doctors of the church St Teresa of Avila, St Alfonco Liguori; and pray to God to provide the necessary graces. -You may then petition to him for a wife that fits your life (housewife, takes care of kids, modest, etc-> basically like St Mary), and whose life you fit (provide financially & emotionally, aid in showing the kids a life of faith in God, use your authority to bless the family, etc -> like St Joseph) without needing to force, punish, or divorce (ask God and he will lead through you). -But if you don’t offer up your hardships for God then a miracle will not take place.

[@tinalettieri]

You most certainly can force. Or maybe ENforce is a better term. You can't divorce but if she walks out, you can remain faithful to your vows by not initiating legal action and by not looking for other companions. Stay faithful to her, even if she abandons you.

The way i see it is im like a restaurant owner. I needed a general manager to run things and make good decisions so my restaurant runs smoothly. So i took my time, went through all of the possible candidates, then i picked the best man to run my restaurant. Now obviously i want to be a smart restaurant owner, so if the manager i chose tells me i need to do x,y, and z, i should listen because he knows what he is doing. Now a dumb owner might ignore their general managers advice, and then wonder why they went out of business. Women need to understand they picked this man. He didn't force them into anything. No, we wives choose our husbands to fulfill this role. Trust your husband, after all, you chose him

I've heard plenty of poor homilists or homilists with obvious mental deficits that are inspiring to me. This dude is imprecise and rambly. Almost like he has no idea what he actually thinks and his mind is full of noise. I could be totally wrong and misunderstanding, but I wanted to share for his benefit. I'll pray for him now.

I rarely wear pants now. And when I do I wear a long sweater or tunic below my knees. I try to ensure what I wear is feminine. Initially I believe pants were first worn by Katherine Hepburn and Amelia Earhart and adrogyny took off from there. Then women began chopping their hair off and you do double take, is it a guy or a girl? Especially when women are older. It's just🤔Or women dress like street walkers or goth or who knows what. Women freely gave away their dignity. Yet they whine that they get no know respect. Pitiful.

Did the women that were traveling with Jesus ask to be apostles? Were they made apostles? Nope. Women were/are important to his ministry but not in the same way but not any less important. Men and women are complimentary and not equal. We have different strengths and weaknesses. I have learned that women should probably have a family first early on and not wait until it's almost too late. Late 30s and 40s it gets harder to get pregnant not that its impossible. You can do college later, that will always be there. You can take one class if that's what you can handle if you have a family. There are different ways to do it. Sometimes you have to take what people say in stride. Heck, I wear yoga pants out in public and I need to wear tennis shoes. My feet have a hard time even in flats. But I only wear dresses to church. I do not ever wear pants to church, I cover my shoulders and my head. That's my own standard.
