As with any type of health-related thing, it takes effort and planning. However, all of the planning, organizing, and good ideas are useless if we never start putting them into practice. Just start. There will be off days. Days you are tired. Days when the temptation to quit is strong. Keep going. If you do… Continue reading Maintaining a Healthy Marriage

Are You Willing to Get Your Hands Dirty?
Are you willing to get your hands dirty for the sake of someone else? Jesus did. I can’t get over these two accounts: The woman with the issue of blood was considered unclean, and when she touched Jesus, by the law of the day, He would’ve been unclean, too. The lepers that Jesus touched would’ve… Continue reading Are You Willing to Get Your Hands Dirty?
Daniel, The Young Man
The account of Daniel gets more exciting and challenging to me the older I get. Most of us know the basics of his life through the Sunday School lessons we have heard. But there is so much more to Daniel than the lion’s den and his three friends getting thrown into the fiery furnace! I… Continue reading Daniel, The Young Man
Murmurings & Disputings
Philippians 2:14 says, “Do all things without murmurings and disputings:” This is a command. God didn’t say to “try” or to “mostly” do things without murmurings and disputings. He also said all, and as you know, all means all. The context of this verse is Paul writing to the church of Phillipi. This verse is… Continue reading Murmurings & Disputings
Arise & Build
What is God asking you to build as a Christian, wife, and mother? Your faith? Your home? Your testimony? The heritage you are leaving for your children and grandchildren? I believe now, more than ever, women are under attack. Our femininity and place in the home are mocked and belittled. It is time to arise… Continue reading Arise & Build
The Result of Idol Worship
What do you think of when you hear the phrase “idol worship.” I’ll be honest. I usually picture the wooden and molten images of the Old Testament. It is easy to imagine that and emphatically say, “I don’t have an idolatry problem!” But those manmade idols are not the only type of idolatry we deal… Continue reading The Result of Idol Worship
When Crisis Comes
Second Chronicles chapter 20 opens with the Moabites invading Judah. Jehoshaphat is king, and he is walking with the Lord. Jehoshaphat did not take the news of this invasion lightly. The king knew he had to act quickly and protect his kingdom! Jehoshaphat could have reacted in many ways, but he chose the best solution:… Continue reading When Crisis Comes
Are You Salty?
Matthew 5:13 says, “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.” This verse is part of the Sermon on the Mount that Jesus preached… Continue reading Are You Salty?
But Will You Let Him?
As wives, we have this idea that submission to our husbands means we lose who we are. Biblically, that is not true. Submission is really just saying yes to God, by saying yes to our husbands and letting them have the final say. It is letting them walk out the authority and responsibility God has… Continue reading But Will You Let Him?
Will You Prove Him?
What are you holding on to? What are you afraid to give to God? What is He calling you to trust Him with? Over and over in Scripture, we are given accounts of people being asked to do things that seem humanly impossible, all with the same result: finding God faithful. One account that sticks… Continue reading Will You Prove Him?
