I have been doing an amazing Kay Arthur study on prayer with a ladies’ group at my church this summer called, “Lord, teach me to pray.” I love her point (pg. 54): “And what is the root of all sin? Is it not independence? Is it not self having its own way?” She goes on… Continue reading “Lord, I Don’t Want to Do Your Will.”

Biblical Submission Is Not Passivity
Some people think the Bible prescribes that wives should be slaves, doormats, or mindless second class citizens. Thankfully, that is not true! Biblical submission is not passivity, slavery, or an invitation for husbands to abuse their wives.
Why Should I Trust God? Why Should I Submit to His Lordship?
People have legitimate questions: Don’t I really know what is best for me better than anyone? Why would I yield control of my life to God? How do I know I can even trust God? What if God wants to hurt me? Who is God? It’s too hard to stop trusting myself and to trust… Continue reading Why Should I Trust God? Why Should I Submit to His Lordship?
“Some Ideas That Helped Me Destroy My Marriage”
From a dear sister in Christ in whom God has been working mightily. How I thank her for her willingness to allow me to share her story.

A “Drill Sergeant” Approach VS. a Godly Feminine Approach
A “Humorous Wedding Cake Topper” at Wal-Mart. Definitely not the picture of godly femininity we are going for! And not humorous at all, in my view. Warning: Please do not attempt any of the things I talk about on my blog without the Holy Spirit’s counsel. John 16:14: “and He will give you a Counselor… Continue reading A “Drill Sergeant” Approach VS. a Godly Feminine Approach

He was talking about God’s righteous jealousy and God’s holy wrath in the podcast I listened to today. And I want to be… Continue reading Righteous Jealousy and Anger
Please, God! Ask Me for Anything But This!
From a dear single sister in Christ who is in her thirties, I so appreciate her willingness to share her story – and I believe that what God showed her is something He wants to show each of us as His followers: I remember when God asked me to give up my dreams. “Okay God,… Continue reading Please, God! Ask Me for Anything But This!
Do You Have to “Lose Yourself” or “Be Fake” to Be a Godly Wife?
What does it really mean to be a godly wife? Wouldn’t that be oppressive slavery or something?
I Am Still on Such a Learning Curve! And That is OK. :)
I know it must seem – to some – like I am some kind of expert (or like I must think I am some kind of expert – ha!) on the whole respecting our husbands thing. I have been studying this topic for over 6 years, yes. And I have been writing about… Continue reading I Am Still on Such a Learning Curve! And That is OK. 🙂
A Call to Prayer – for the Body of Christ and for the Lost
Persecution of Christians has been intensifying in recent months and weeks, as I am sure we are all well aware. The past century has seen more martyrs for Christ than any century in the history of the church. My precious brothers and sisters in Christ, let’s join hands – virtually, at least – through the… Continue reading A Call to Prayer – for the Body of Christ and for the Lost
