One thing I have been trying to work on lately is becoming a submissive wife. Not a door mat, or someone who just agrees with everything he says, but submissive. Becoming a Submissive Wife: Trust me, I am anything but a doormat. If I disagree with something or someone it is likely that I will walk away or state that we will have to “agree to disagree” because that isn’t my viewpoint at all. In cases where I hold in […]

Men, understanding them can be a walk in the dark. Even though I have been purposely studying my man for over 3 years now, I still don’t always get him.

Her husband is respected in the city gates, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land Proverbs 31:23 By: Crystal Hatcher Respected in the City Gates: At first glance this verse appears to be a prerequisite unrelated to us as women, but instead to the quality and character of the man we chose to marry.

Welcome back to another Living Proverbs 31 linkup! I hope you all had a great weekend and are well rested up for the workweek.

Anyone who has been married for long, will know that there are times when hurtful words are spoken. Times when your spouse says something that just hurts. Times when you don’t even know who you are married to. What do you do in those times? Respond in anger? Run away and feel sorry for yourself? Ask why they are acting like that? I have a husband who is always saying the meanest things. I mean, sometimes I think he intentionally […]

Women can vote, hold any job position that are physically and/or mentally capable of and are recognized as valuable as men by our government. But did we lose more than we gained? Consider with me our Christian Women’s Rights. Our Christian Women’s Rights As daughters of Eve we can claim the right to be loved by and to love one man. The right to fight […]

Have a vision to succeed. Proverbs 29:18 states this: “Where there is no vision, the people perish… Let’s look at that a bit. What happens if there is no vision? The people perish. Obviously we are all going to “perish” at some point, but I believe what that verse is referring is the perishing of the mind. The going through your day-to-day duties without meaning. Working. Putting money in the bank. Taking money out of the bank to pay bills. […]
