It has become a little uncommon these days for a wife to submit to her husband in every respect. In fact, most men these days seem to have trouble controlling their wives. What a shame.
These women do not know what they are missing out on. They do not know the benefit of having a husband who takes his responsibility seriously.
Christian Domestic Discipline has many advantages for a wife indeed. It helps in many ways.
For one, if you agree to Christian Domestic Discipline (have you seen the CDD Contract my husband posted ?), you know exactly what to expect when things go wrong. You know what your place is in the marriage - that of a help meet, not that of a leader - and you accept the guidance of your husband in becoming a completely godly woman, as much as humanly possible. If you fail to live up to the standard, you are punished. It's that simple.
Another aspect is that of firm leadership. A husband who does not fear responsibility and rules his house with a firm hand ensures that there are no doubts about where the house should go and what is expected of every member. The house rules help to keep things well known to everybody, so that the house runs as smoothly as a well-oiled sewing machine.
When it comes to being spanked itself, yes, of course, it hurts, and it is not a nice experience, but very unpleasant. It should hurt, too, it's not a game after all. But when it is over, it is over, and you can start over and do better in whichever area it was that you failed. In other households, something that bothers the husband might be a smoldering issue for days, weeks or even years, and it leads to frustration for everybody. After spanking, however, the air is clear again, just as we read in the bible:
"Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby." (Heb 12:11)
The peacable fruit of righteousness: You can make good again what you screwed up, so to speak, since you know exactly what went wrong and now you can pay extra attention to it in order to avoid making the same mistake again. In the long run, it leads to you being a better help meet and better mother in every respect.
I think this only has advantages. I am glad too that I am not a man and not the one who has to do it, but that I am the one who benefits from it. We know what women are like since the beginning, since Eve in the garden we know what the main problem of women is. I am glad that my husband holds me accountable for what I do and not do, so that with his help I can fight the sinful nature we are cursed with since the Fall.
