If I Am Being Needy and Clingy, I Will Probably Repel My Husband
Ultimately, each wife must prayerfully decide what she believes God wants her to do to obey Him and to honor Him in her unique situation. God has wisdom. I do not. I write specifically for wives who tend to be controlling and dominating. Wives who tend to be more quiet and have dominating husbands may find… Continue reading If I Am Being Needy and Clingy, I Will Probably Repel My Husband
Giving Friends Godly Marriage Advice
** It’s probably best in most situations for us as women not to attempt to give men marriage advice – that can get really dicey and present too much temptation sometimes – especially if messages or conversations are private. Maybe we can refer men in need of godly counsel to a godly pastor or… Continue reading Giving Friends Godly Marriage Advice

Many times – these kinds of things can even… Continue reading Pastors Are Human, Too

Replacing the “Tapes” in My Head
Greg and April in June of 2012 Before God radically changed my mind, heart and soul over the past 5 years, I would constantly have “tapes” playing in my head where I was always talking to myself about things – a running narrative of worry, fear, trying to figure out every possible “what if” scenario… Continue reading Replacing the “Tapes” in My Head
“Your Blog Made Me SO Angry!”
An email I received from a dear wife. LOVE this. I receive a lot of emails in this same vein. Many wives say things like, “I hated you and I loved you.” The stuff I share is HARD to hear.
