“There Must Be More to This Journey Than Just Prayer”

Yes! There absolutely is!!! I spent up to four hours a day praying during those first 14 years of our marriage. God wasn’t answering my prayers. Why, in my case, was He not listening to me?

A Wife Asks, “How Can a Husband Love His Wife AND Be Visually Attracted to Other Women?”

This is part of a discussion we had on another post. FROM A WIFE: I don’t get the whole “men are visual but they still love you” thing. If they love you – WHY are they looking? If they love you – even if they can’t help but see the girl walk by – WHY… Continue reading A Wife Asks, “How Can a Husband Love His Wife AND Be Visually Attracted to Other Women?”
