Asking For Too Much Conversation in Marriage?
Let’s face it. There are major differences between men and women, but none more obvious than in the desire for conversation. There’s a drastic difference in the amount of communication women typically use on any given day versus men. Studies have actually been done on this that reveal how women use approximately 20,000 words per day,…

The Power of Pulling Away
I planned on sharing a post on how I’ve used reflection to gain perspective during or after a conflict, as well as a reflection tool today. But since I’ve had a week out of town at my in-laws, I’ve not had the time to prepare that post. 😦 After all, I wanted to pull away…

What I Learned from a Fight with My Husband
Toward the end of my month-long reorganizing, repairing, and purging that I was doing in my house in June, my husband and I had a fight. Mind you, it wasn’t related to the hard work that we were doing on the house. But it was a doozy of a misunderstanding on both our parts. I…

How Grief Softens the Heart

My Failure to Control Myself And WW Linkup
I find it funny (or sad—you pick!) that, not only can I have trouble with being too controlling with my hubby, but I can go to the other extreme and not be controlling enough—of at least myself!

My hubby Gary and I are vacationing this week between two important graduations in our family. Last Saturday, our daughter-in-love Sarah graduated summa cum laude from Liberty University with a bachelors degree in elementary education. This coming Friday, our oldest son Jordan (and hubby to Sarah) is getting his Master of Divinity degree from Southern…

Being a Bossy-Pants Wife And WW Linkup
I find it amazing how every good gift that God gives can be taken and ruined—when given time and wrong motives—by us as humans. After all, a careful and wise use of control is what every good leader needs to wield! [Tweet “The trouble comes when you have two leaders fighting for control! #toomanychiefs”] Now…

My Failures, God’s Inroads And WW Linkup!
I’ve been studying in 1st Samuel and God has been bringing to my attention all the times that people either wrongly let pride overtake them or rightly let humility be their response to circumstances. [Tweet “I honestly think God brings to our attention the very things we need! #Ineedhumility”] In fact, humility is one area…

How Grief and Humility Can Set You Free
Early on in my marriage, when we were full-throttle in the messes of our own making, the last thing I wanted to do was admit my part in those messes. And the more I ran from taking responsibility and the more I pointed the finger of blame at my husband for “driving me to make…

How to Replace an Addiction or Bad Habit And WW Linkup
Today we are continuing the “Resurrect Me” series by delving into what it means to surrender and replace our addictions and habitual sins. I’ve been using a passage in James as our roadmap throughout this series. So let’s look at what’s next . . . “Submit yourselves, then to God. Resist the devil, and he…
