“There is a reason for nearly everything.”

We see the familiar symbol everywhere — in text messages, signs, cakes, clothing, and more. But we also know the real heart looks nothing like it. Historian Marilyn Yalom tells us how the ana…

Henry Darger (1892-1973) drew bright, inventive cartoon-like versions of a cosmic heaven and hell. The subject matter of Darger’s writing and art reveals an obsession with childhood and an unsettling fixation on young girls and their tortuous ordeals at the hands of men. Darger’s work is not easy to understand, asking for no sympathetic eye and … Continue reading "Henry Darger’s Blengiglomenean Serpents And Vivian Girls"

"And so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled." ~Titus 2:4-5 We all want to be the wise woman who builds up her home but the honest truth is that sometimes we are not so wise. In fact, we might be more like a foolish woman instead who tears down her home. " The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down." Proverbs 14:1 There are so many ways we might tear down our home and some of us might not even realize it. Some ways are obvious and some ways are not so much. The Scriptures sets the example for us as how our husbands should be able to trust in us: "The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life." I would love for you to go over this quick list over at True Woman and read the helpful list there entitled: 10 Things Your Husband Hates 1. You throw him under the bus in public. When you point out his faults, criticize, or correct him, he feels like an idiot in front of others—and that's demeaning. Don't embarrass him in any way (especially in front of your children). Would you want him to do that to you? 2. You remind him of his past failures. It's something that was settled long ago (or maybe just last week), and you just can't seem to let it go. We've all failed. Let go of things that have already been worked through and settled. If there are unresolved issues that were never dealt with biblically, take steps to graciously resolve them and move on. Read the rest HERE. As a new Christian I would have loved to have read a list like this and now after 20 years of marriage I believe this is a great list and reminder. I hope you find it insightful and helpful towards building a stronger marriage! Do you struggle with respecting and loving your husband? What is the hardest part for you? Leave a comment below to share with us. Prayer: Dear God, please help me to be the wife that you want me to be. I struggle at times to to obey your word and need your wisdom and guidance in all things. Help me to apply what I know you have commanded and to focus on loving and respecting my husband to bring You glory. Help me to remember that my husband is a sinner in need of your grace just like me and to show mercy, patience, and forgiveness towards Him as I would like to receive it. Help me to see our marriage in new eyes and thank you for the husband that you have given me. I pray this in Jesus' holy name, amen. Do you struggle with this topic?

For most of us, the family is associated with a safe haven where people can rely on each other and share not only happy but also gloomy moments together. Naturally, every home has its highs and lows. But even in the darkest moments, family members care about one another.
