I remember, years ago attending a women’s conference. The speaker was a wonderful, godly, older woman. Not many years older than myself. But she was a Pastor’s wife, and she blessed me, so much. I enjoyed her talks very much; I took careful notes and was so excited to hear what she would talk about, in her subsequent scheduled sessions. …
God’s plan for every marriage is happiness. Marriage is meant to be a miniature of Heaven–a fragment of the celestial blessedness, let down into this world. Marriage is meant to bea little sanctuary, into which husband and wife may flee from earth’s storms and dangers, where in love’s shelter, their hearts fed with affection’s daily bread–they may dwell in quiet …

Let parents take what pains they please in the teaching and instructing of their families, unless their personal walk be holy, and their lives fruitful, they will do more for their destruction than their edification.
Many women today find their worth in their jobs, money, houses, cars…..stuff. There is no satisfaction in these material things. They are shiny bobbles that distract for a time, but have no eternal value. We are women that find our worth in Christ. He is our standard. He is our everything. Everything that is made is made by Him, and …
We are told as Christians to “come out from their midst and be separate” we are to be a “peculiar people zealous for good works”. Now, to start with that gives us a stepping off place, right? So, to “come out from their midst” it means we are not to join with the wicked and the profane. Well we know what that is, don’t we? Then we have “peculiar people zealous for good works”. So, Jesus would set apart and purify for Himself a people, which for His sake should devote itself to God, in contrast to the rest of humanity sunk in selfish sins. Selfish Sins.

It’s really not about the sandwich. It’s about what that sandwich represents to feminists. It’s about making a sandwich, dare I say it, for a man. Because making a sandwich for a …
It is better to live in a corner of the roof Than in a house shared with a contentious woman Proverbs 25:24 Scripture tells men to run, be as far away as you can be from a contentious woman. Live in a corner of a roof. Assuming the wife is in the house, and he is far away from her …
One thing is certain, no one can see the sin of your husband more clearly than you. We each have pockets of sin, and in marriage killing sin frequently is a joint effort. Because our husbands are sinners, they do not always think, act, or respond in a way that we agree with. Likewise, because we are also sinners we can be tempted to respond in kind when we our husbands have done something that has left us feeling disappointed or dissatisfied. It is important that we do not live out our marriages using the principle of equivalent retaliation. This is when you love him or treat him well based off of your estimation of his performances. He does well and pleases you, you treat him well and please him. Tit for tat. He behaves poorly or doesn’t perform his duties properly, and you punish him by being withholding of your love and kindness.
Mama, you hold the keys to the kingdom. Everything your children experience goes through you. Their experience passes through the choices you make for them, your choice of conduct and your choice of daily priority. What do you focus on and where do you put them? Do you put them with you or somewhere else? Have you put them in …
