Sometimes, God’s instructions don’t make sense. When a situation at work left me hurt and frustrated, my first instinct was to defend myself to escalate things and make sure justice was done. But before I could, I felt a quiet whisper in my spirit: “Don't do it.” Then came another instruction even harder to obey: “Pray for her.”
Sex outside of marriage can leave behind shame, broken hearts, and confusion. But even deeper than that, it blinds us to something far more beautiful: a kind of love that honors, waits, and reflects Christ.
Many wives pray for their husbands to change—but true transformation often starts with us. Before asking God to work in your spouse’s heart, pray for “the wife of your husband”: yourself. When we invite God to heal our hearts, shift our perspective, and fill us with His love, our prayers for our husbands become far more powerful and effective.
What would your life look like if the Lord had not been on your side? A reflection on Psalm 124 that invites gratitude not only for what God has given, but for what He has quietly carried us through.
Waiting isn’t wasted time; it’s often where God does His deepest work. When we pause long enough to let God move, we discover that He’s not delaying us. He’s developing us. Waiting becomes the place where His timing shapes our hearts, renews our strength, and reveals His perfect purpose.
God is speaking more often than we think; the problem is not the signal but our attention. We hear His voice, yet we stay distracted and miss our turn.
True joy is not found in holding on, but in pouring out. When we give, whether it's time, care, finances, or help, we become part of God’s movement of love on the earth.
“Do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.” — Matthew 6:31–32 (NIV)
How should a Christian respond to wicked people? While our human nature cries out for vengeance, God’s Word reminds us that He desires the wicked to live and turn from their sins. Our role is to seek His heart, pray for repentance, and trust His justice. May we follow His example and extend grace even in the face of evil.

Let your measure of success be obedience, not outcome. Faithfulness, not fame. God’s purpose, not people’s applause.
We often approach God with our own solutions in mind, but His way is not always ours. Just as Naaman nearly missed his healing, we risk missing God’s perfect solution when we cling to our ideas. True faith means trusting His plan, even when it differs from what we expect.
