Wifehood

For a wife, sometimes initiating sexual intimacy with our husband is no easy feat, after all, we need to be vulnerable in this intimate act. 🙂 Here’s one wife’s struggle with this private issue… Dear Jolene, I have a very difficult time initiating sex with my husband of 5 years. I desire to make love to…

Anger.  Sometimes it seeps out of us and then the next thing you know we are lashing out at our loved ones.  Not only have I lashed out but I’ve been on the receiving end.  Of course this is not how my man and I want our marriage to be, so we’ve had to learn…

Unity in marriage is difficult to build especially if a couple isn’t intentional about building it or protecting it.  The Enemy will do whatever it takes to destroy our marital union and sadly, he’ll use anything or anyone to do this!  The behavior of our own children can put strains on our marriage and those strains can…

The concept of ‘letting my man lead’ was definitely not an idea I was exposed to when I was a single woman.  This gal was clearly in charge of all aspects of my life, that is until I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ. Fully surrendering my will to the Lord caused me to take God…

When I married my man I wanted to be known as an honorable wife.  Being a woman of my word was, and still is, important to me because I am ultimately representing Christ, and because of this, I actively pursue being trustworthy. In the same way, their wives are to be women worthy of respect,…

It was 19 years ago that Eric and I went on our first date.  After I had gotten off of work, I met up with him at the local county fair.  Not thinking much about our so-called date, you can imagine how surprised I was to learn that this man that I strolled through the…

Have you ever been disappointed by your husband? Hurt by his actions? Felt angry or unloved by him? If you’ve been married for longer than a day then I am sure the feeling of discontentment has occurred in your marriage. Marriages are far from perfect. Combine a husband and wife, which are two known sinners.…

Immodesty is everywhere in our society. You can find it on the billboards, t.v. shows, commercials, movies, driving through town, at a shopping mall and sadly even at church. You can’t avoid the bare-skinned, tight-fitted, short skirts, and cleavage that is displayed all over the place and neither can a visually made man! Not only are these…
