YOU are His Beloved. This is not a time to reason. It is a time to search the heart of God and if He is able, then you are able as you fasten yourself to His glorious will. If you do not lean on your own understanding and if you acknowledge Him, then He has promised to direct YOUR path.
Hear His voice. Boldly obey. Your rewards will be rich both here on earth and in the eternity of eternities!

A wife has one driving need – to be loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A husband has one driving need – to be respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy! "Love and Respect" reveals why spouses react negatively to each other, and how they can deal with such conflict quickly, easily and biblically.
This LTG drives us ladies to understand the heart of our husband’s (or husbands-to-be). You’ll be delighted and surprised that by giving your husband what he needs – respect, you will inspire his reciprocal response to fulfill your need to be loved.

“Knowing Who God Says You Are”
Jessie Holland and Ann Alston
Today many women struggle to know who they really are and where they fit in. Society tells us we should all look the same and go out of our way to be beautifully (phony) people. Conforming to this illusive image comes at a cost, because we soon forget who we really are. This creates a void that we try to fill with things or people.
As a born again believer we are new creatures; the past is behind us. Yet even Christian women can clearly suffer from insecurity, doubts and worries about fitting in. The Word of God tells us who we are if we dig deep and trust the Holy Spirit to reveal it to us.

I don't know how your husband's story reads to this point...no two stories are alike. He may be a Christian and open to God's word or he may not. Whatever his story, or how you read it, God can pick it up at this point and turn it into a story of love and redemption. God's promises and their fulfillment are available to you and to your husband as well. This circle will encourage you to stand firm in hope, secure yourself firmly upon the promises of God, stand by your husband and reach out to God. Don't close the book on your husband until you have seen what God can do.

Hello "Grapple mom!" (aka mother of a daughter ranging in age from 9-13)!
In real-time terminology, “grapple” means wondering if anything you ever say is going to be right; Wrestling with the timing of when to offer consolation or advice; wondering how much is too much or too little? Do you ever wonder how and when to instruct your daughter about sex, her menstrual cycle, and personal hygiene?
Don't throw up your hands or strangle your dear daughter! We have good news! Even though these pre-teen and early teens are a struggle for both moms and daughters, there is such a thing as a “God-version” of this drama. Band together with other moms determined to traverse this complicated season with grace and hefty doses of laughter and mutual encouragement.
So grapple (seize or grip) a copy of "Creating a Mother-Daughter Bond that Lasts a Lifetime" by Susie Shellenburger.

“Honor’s Reward”
Tava Brice, Delphine Floyd, Rhonda Hamilton, Deborah McLean, Karen Bell
In this on-going LTG (LifeTogether Girlfriends); our working definition for ‘leader’ is “one who influences.” As daughters of the Most High, we have an amazing opportunity to affect dynamic influence to the world around us. The eternal, intrinsic worth of our leadership is only as valuable as our understanding of and coinciding obedience to scripture.
God faithfully sent Jesus and His prophetic forerunners to His people to define and clarify confusion about how to exemplify God. Praise God for His modern day messengers sent to the church—particularly the American church---so that we are kept from slipping and falling! John Bevere is one of those prophetic voices who has recently completed an essential study, “Honor’s Reward” which can potentially revolutionize our impact.
The only thing better than taking a lingering, astute examination of this vital study is conversing about it with our LifeTogether Girlfriends. Get ready to attract the blessing of the Lord as He reframes our current approach to challenging people!
