Today I just want to share things that I have been taught/told/shown by God that changed my way of thinking, which in turn changed my marriage. These apply to daily life. Start today. This is also why it’s important to be in church, pray, and read your Bible for yourself. This is how God speaks… Continue reading 15 Things That Have Changed My Thinking and My Marriage

What is a Titus 2 Woman: Part 2
We have already looked at verses 3-5 in a previous post. Today I want to go through verses 7-15. I truly love God’s Word and how He teaches us so much in just a few verses. I believe verse 7 begins giving instruction for all Christians, not just men or women as we have experienced… Continue reading What is a Titus 2 Woman: Part 2
With Good Will
I was struggling a bit in my mind, no doubt a spiritual battle. Satan wants us to think about and act negatively toward our spouses. When praying and looking at Scripture, God gave me this reminder. I am sure I’m not the only one that needs it. Webster’s 1828 dictionary explains good will as being… Continue reading With Good Will
Be like Hur
Exodus 17:8-16 “Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand. So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and… Continue reading Be like Hur
Are You a Crown?
Proverbs 12:4, “A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.” I recently heard my assistant pastor’s wife give a devotion on this verse and the Lord really just spoke to me and I knew I needed to dig in deeper. The picture this… Continue reading Are You a Crown?
Are You Stewarding Your Gifts Well?
When you think of a gift, what comes to mind? Is it material things like shelter, food, and clothing? Maybe more emotional things like family, health, and salvation? Do you think of just spiritual gifts as the talents and abilities God has given you to serve Him and others such as exhortation, music, or teaching?… Continue reading Are You Stewarding Your Gifts Well?
Leaving a Legacy That Matters
You are leaving a legacy, lasting memories, habits, and examples to those around you. What will you be remembered for? As a Christian, you should desire to be remembered as loving Jesus, being faithful to serve Him, being faithful to church, and living in a way that brings others to Him. Our lives should be… Continue reading Leaving a Legacy That Matters
Submission for the Working Wife
I understand God has a different plan and design for each of us. My financial situation looks different than yours. How you’ve chosen to educate your children may be different. I am not going to degrade you for working outside of the home, for choosing public school, or for feeling like a better mom because… Continue reading Submission for the Working Wife
Don’t Worship the Wrong Table
I see, and love posts reminding families to get back to the dinner table. I need this reminder from time to time. It is to be a place a place of physical nourishment, fellowship, laughter, and memories. Families need this time of intentional connection. Too many of us are just doing our own thing, living… Continue reading Don’t Worship the Wrong Table
Intimacy in Marriage: Part 4
A second complaint is that one spouse doesn’t seem interested anymore. There can be many reasons for this. Some were mentioned in the last post. There could also be medical issues, medications you take (most antianxiety and antidepressant medication will affect your sex drive), or there can truly be low libido. Most of these can… Continue reading Intimacy in Marriage: Part 4
