Let's think of this scenario for a moment: You get together with a bunch a ladies and one starts it... the negative rag talk about her husband. Another pitches in complaining, then another... pretty soon it's your turn. Do you chime in with similar pity party complaints? Or are you one of the few that don't tend to focus on the negative things in your husband and find yourself in an awkward environment all of [...]
This concept "What do your children see" can be applied to so many areas of our lives. Today I want to apply to Marriage. What do your children see? Or better yet, ask yourself this question... What will my children remember as adults when they look back on their childhood? Everyone does it... everyone looks back on how they were raised and with memories of how their parents were "so in love" or "not." what [...]
Does He? Does Your Husband Know He is Your Hero here on Earth? Does Your Husband Feel that you are PROUD to be His Wife? A wife has so much power build her husband up. To make him more confident. Are you Building Up Your Man, Tearing Him Down, or are you just stagnate? We have to ask ourselves these powerful questions. Why? Everything we say can potentially tear down his confidence and make him [...]
I find power, exhortation, and inspiration in knowing God made me well for what I do and God made my husband well for what He does. Together, married, working together to build one another up instead of comparing and mentally tearing one another down... you can be a strong team. Isaac and I are two very different people; with different gifts, talents and callings, but we love each other and work at our marriage. We [...]
Have you ever compared your "job" to your husbands? Have you ever thought, "If he only knew what I did all day today?" Have you ever found yourself jealous of your husband because he gets to travel and get away? Have you ever been texted a photo of an amazing view from a hotel room, and thought, hmm 80 degree weather, palm trees, and beaches... it's not fair... I wanna go? Not all of us women have [...]
Today was a battle for me to keep my perspective clear, focused, and my attitude joyful. Today I didn't want to be at home doing laundry, cleaning house, feeding kids, changing diapers, or even doing home school with the kids. Today I struggled with an ugly sin called selfishness. For any of you who know me well, you know that the thing I LOVE most to do with my husband is build. Ever since we [...]
Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled. Titus 2:3-6 Who is an older woman? For years I struggled with this because I always had [...]
As a young lady I was always drawn to gleaning wisdom from older women. That part of me has never changed. I would venture to say that deep down inside of every woman is a desire to have an older woman speaking encouragement and trustworthy wisdom into our lives. Someone who has been there... down that old familiar road. For me, I know I need encouragement from older moms who are nearing their home schooling [...]
A young mom recently asked me when I got motivated and began pursuing personal growth for my “job” as a home maker & mom. Well when I became a personally responsible for my relationship with the Lord at age 15 I began this journey of personal growth, so I guess I’ve always had that desire within in me... I think that deep down we all have that yearning desire within us. I believe it is [...]
