Father, As I'm led by Your Spirit, I pray for women today. We lift ourselves to You God asking You to do a work in us, Your daughters. Father we have fallen short of Your glory, We have sinned against You Lord and we ask forgiveness today and God as You forgive us, help us to forgive others who have harmed us. Teach us how to even forgive ourselves. Lord we can grasp with our heads we are worthy to You but Lord we want to know it in the depths of our hearts and… Continue

“I am weary.”  That’s what I told God this weekend.  And those were about the only words I was able to send up at that moment because I was weary.  I had prayed long and hard about something, watched God bring a victory, was enjoying the victory—then saw the situation suddenly sliding back to where it had been in the beginning.

As a firstborn and raised as the only child through adoption at birth, I have a strong desire to please, but I’m realizing I have an even stronger desire not to fail! I asked the ladies in Bible study last week how they would complete this sentence, “More than anything else I fear____________.” I was the only one who wrote FAILURE in bold letters, but as we talked, we realized many of our responses were linked to a fear of failure.



* Fear of rejection – Will I fail to… Continue

How many of us have people come to you and said that I heard something about you and regardless to what you say they still believe what someone else has said. Pretty much everyone has gone thru that at one point in your life.



In the bible Jesus went thru the same thing, because the clergy wanted him out of the way because he was interrupting their way of doing things. Not only did they lie, they chose a criminal over Jesus.



In my personal life I have been accused of things… Continue

They are the HEALING POWER of LAUGHTER & the RESTORATIVE STRENGTH of JOY! A MERRY HEART is your GREATEST WEAPON against DEADLY EMOTIONS.



LAUGHTER holds as much HEALING POWER as MEDICINE. When you laugh, powerful ENDORPHINS, which act much the same way as morphine, are released in the brain. Endorphins trigger a feeling of well-being throughout your entire body. Many doctors will agree that the diaphragm, abdomen, heart, lungs—& even the liver—are given a massage during a HEARTY… Continue

The Bible tells us "He who FINDS a WIFE finds a GOOD THING...", that means she was a WIFE BEFORE HE FOUND HER! If you're not a WIFE FIRST, you'll just be a woman MARRIED with a ring with no skills, no clue & the furthest thing from being what you're CALLED to be... a HELPMEET because a truly GOOD WOMAN is a WIFE BEFORE she is MARRIED. #RealTalkMarriage101



"He who FINDS a WIFE finds a GOOD THING... and OBTAINS FAVOR from the Lord." ~ Proverbs 18:22…
