Ultimately, each wife must prayerfully decide what she believes God wants her to do to obey Him, to seek His wisdom in the Bible and to honor Him in her unique situation. God has wisdom. I do not.

We… Continue reading Our Identity in Christ – THIS Is My Security!
Roots of Insecurity, Low Self Esteem, Sinful Jealousy and Desire to Control

We want to know that no matter what happens, those we love will still love us. We want security in the love of our… Continue reading Trying to Find Security in All the Wrong Places
My Worry Insults My Husband

The Respect Dare, Day 15 – Is My Treasure in Eternal Things?
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’” Hebrews 13:5 (FYI – You may remember that my hours as a pharmacist were suddenly cut from 12 hours/week to 3 hours/week in April.
