Some people associate the word submission with negativity and being weak.

Battling cancer and going through a divorce after her husband cheated on her and had a baby with his lover left Sonya broken and yearning for a change. Picking up the pieces of her life and starting over at fifty with the help of her friends and grandmother was not an easy journey. A journey full of courage and self-discovery. Giving her life to God, she found the strength and resilience to forgive and overcome disappointment opening her heart to love again. Whether by chance or God's will, she found Damion, the love of her life-a man with values and tradition but still trying to overcome childhood drama and pain. Learning to be in a God-led relationship and not one of this carnal world seems easy. Subduing lust, trust issues, and secrets while learning to stand still in God turns out to be difficult.

Yes, the Bible says women must submit to their husbands, but the true test is whether they can submit to one another. Can the two of them unite and put pettiness and the need to be in control behind them?
Their relationship is a true testament to the power of faith, love, and forgiveness- a shining example of the beauty that can come from a broken heart.
