Exaggeration is actually a proud, unbroken word for lying.

Uma grande verdade!

"O fato é que o casamento é difícil, e bons casamentos são ainda mais difíceis. Todo casal é "incompatível" - se não for por alguma outra razão, ao menos pelo fato de que homens e mulheres são muito diferentes, para não falar que todo casamento envolve duas pessoas que são naturalmente egoístas. Duas pessoas quaisquer vivendo sob o mesmo teto serão insensíveis às vezes; elas vão machucar uma a outra; haverá mal-entendidos; elas vão falhar em atender as necessidades uma da outra. O único lugar onde as pessoas se casam e "vivem felizes para sempre" é nos contos de fadas. Nunca desde Gênesis 3, houve um casamento que pudesse ser considerado fácil ou indolor."

"Independentemente de que crise ou complexidade podem ser ameaçando engolir sua vida, Deus está no trabalho. Você pode não ver isso, mas precisa saber que é verdade. E ele não está apenas fazendo uma ou duas ou algumas coisas nessa situação. Ele está fazendo mil ou mais coisas." --- Nancy Leigh DeMoss https://www.instagram.com/p/CpsfsKFujBg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What age were you when you met and married your husband? I know it silly but I always thought I’d have met someone by my mid-20s

I was 25 when we met and almost 27 when we married! And tbh it was a fluke we met--he's from Cleveland, I was living outside New Orleans, and we met in Louisville (because he went to school with my sister).

I'm sure you've heard often that there's no timeline on meeting someone. One speaker (possibly Nancy Leigh DeMoss, but don't quote me) was single until she was in her 50s. I have a beloved friend who's about 40 and still single, and another beloved friend who's 30 and got with someone last year.

Maribeth's story might be more encouraging to you, actually. She had actually known her fiance for years; he's her brother-in-law's best friend, and Maribeth and Casey walked together at her sister's wedding as maid of honor and best man. But despite being friends for years, it wasn't until last summer that they started talking and realized they were a great fit for each other.

And, of course, there's always the possibility that you won't find romantic love. I think Catholics have a better conception of and appreciation for single people than Protestants. I'd encourage you to look around and see where you can build the life you want to live even without meeting someone.

Good luck, beloved.

"Il ne devrait pas être très surprenant que le monde séculier soit confus et erroné quant à l'identité et à la vocation des femmes.

Mais ce que je trouve affligeant, c'est la mesure dans laquelle (cela) a pris racine même dans le monde évangélique.

Nous voyons le fruit de cette révolution alors que d'éminents orateurs, auteurs et dirigeants chrétiens promeuvent un programme, que ce soit subtilement ou ouvertement, qui encourage les femmes à définir et à découvrir leur valeur sur le lieu de travail, dans la société ou à l'église, tout en minimisant (ou même au détriment de) leurs rôles distinctifs dans la maison en tant que filles, sœurs, épouses et mères - en tant que porteuses et nourricières de la vie, soignantes, en tant que privilégiées et responsables de façonner le cœur et le caractère de la prochaine génération.

La révolution féministe était censée apporter aux femmes plus d'épanouissement et de liberté. C'était censé nous faire sentir mieux dans notre peau ; après tout, "Tu as parcouru un long chemin, bébé !"

Mais nous voyons le fruit empoisonné de la révolution dans les yeux et les cris pitoyables des femmes qui se noient dans le bourbier des divorces et remariages en série et des enfants égarés ; les femmes qui sont complètement épuisées par les exigences d'essayer de jongler avec un ou plusieurs emplois, de fonctionner comme mères célibataires et d'être actives dans l'église ; des femmes qui sont désorientées et confuses, qui manquent de sens de mission, de vision et de but pour leur vie et qui sont perpétuellement, pathétiquement enveloppées de blessures, de doute de soi, de ressentiment et de culpabilité."

Psalms 31:14-15 

I’m desperate, Lord! I throw myself upon you, for you alone are my God! My life, my every moment, my destiny—it’s all in your hands. 

So I know you can deliver me from those who persecute me relentlessly.

Psalm 63:1-5

“O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.  So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory.  Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.  So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.  My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips.” 

“O God, make us desperate, and grant us faith and boldness to approach Your throne and make our petitions known, 

knowing that in doing we link arms with Omnipotence and become instruments of Your eternal purposes being fulfilled on this earth.”

Don't Forget Thanksgiving

Today's inspiration comes from:

365 Devotions for a Thankful Heart

'Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; let us shout joyfully to Him."— Psalm 95:2

"Have you ever noticed how after Halloween, many stores immediately bring out their prelit trees, ornaments, Christmas wreaths, and candy canes? The weeks between Halloween and Christmas are often a blur of colored leaves and turkey, prepping for gift shopping, and holiday parties.

In the frenzy of holiday preparations and Black Friday deals, it can be all too easy for us to skim over Thanksgiving. Sure, we serve the turkey and gravy, and mention what we’re grateful for, but do we linger on giving thanks? Or once the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals come out, do we immediately focus on all the things we want and all the savings we could have? Are we more excited about counting the gifts than we are about counting our blessings?

When the retail world becomes loud, ask the Lord to speak louder. When your eyes become focused on the newest, shiniest gadgets, ask Jesus to fix your eyes on Him and His gifts — and on the greatest gift of salvation.

Don’t let autumn and its season of gratitude get lost in the blur of Christmas fanfare. Let Thanksgiving have its day — and its attitude — in your heart.

Father, I’m so grateful for an annual reminder to give You thanks. Keep me focused on all I have, not on all I want.

The grateful heart that springs forth in joy is not acquired in a moment; it is the fruit of a thousand choices.

Growing in Gratitude

Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth; break forth in song, rejoice, and sing praises. — Psalm 98:4

In this world of both instant communication and Instant Pots, it’s important to remember that some important things come slowly. Hear the wisdom of radio host and author Nancy Leigh DeMoss:

The grateful heart that springs forth in joy is not acquired in a moment; it is the fruit of a thousand choices. ~ Choosing Joy

As much as we may want to live with a heart rooted in gratitude, we can’t flip a switch or push a button to make that happen. Arriving at the point is a process, and by definition a process takes time.

Every new day gives us countless opportunities to develop gratitude. Think of it: with everything we see, hear, taste, touch, think, and experience, we can choose to be grateful. Review your day so far. Identify a handful of moments when you expressed thankfulness — and another handful when you could have, and be grateful now!

Many things develop and improve over time. Today let’s be encouraged that we are more thankful today than we were yesterday — and that we can choose to be even more thankful tomorrow.

Lord, give me a keener awareness and appreciation of Your goodness every day."

 You have been lied to! Have you been deceived? Through a nationwide survey and in-depth discussion groups, Nancy and Dannah have listened carefully to the heart of your generation. And here are some things they’ve heard: “I know God should be the only thing that satisfies, but if it could be Him and my friends, then I could be happy.”"It seems like I have been struggling with depression forever. I always feel like I am not good enough.”“I tell myself that I don’t really listen to the song lyrics, but once I hear a song a few times and start thinking about what they’re saying I realize that it's too late. It's already stuck in my head." "For me, the whole wife and mom thing is overrated. It isn’t cool to want a husband and a family.”Maybe you can identify.

Para pensarmos ...

"Nós nos divertimos com livros e revistas, filmes, programas de televisão e músicas que refletem filosofias mundanas e legitimam a profanação, a imodéstia e o comportamento imoral, sem nunca parar para contemplar que, agindo assim...

Estamos tornando nossa consciência insensível e desenvolvendo tolerância ao pecado;

Estamos aumentando nosso apetite pelo pecado e diminuindo nossa fome por santidade;

Estamos erguendo uma barreira em nossa comunhão com Deus;

Estamos programando nossa mente para pensar da forma que o mundo pensa (e a maneira como pensamos determinará o modo com o vivemos);

Estamos aumentando a probabilidade de realmente agir de acordo com as coisas que estamos vendo é ouvindo;

Estamos desenvolvendo uma visão antibiblica da sexualidade, a qual pode vir a roubar nossa virgindade ou destruir nosso casamento;

Estamos aumentando a probabilidade de que nossos filhos e netos se tornem profanos e imorais."

Maria foi uma mulher da Palavra. Sua oração em Lucas 1.46-55 inchui, pelo menos, um dúzia de citações do Antigo Testamento. Naquela época, as mulheres não frequentavam a escola; provavelmente Maria era analfabeta. No entanto, tinha ouvido a leitura da Palavra e a guardara em seu coração. Sua vida e suas orações eram recheadas de versículos das Escrituras. Uma de nossas maiores necessidades é nos tornarmos mulheres da Palavra, para que nossas orações, atitudes e palavras sejam impregnadas do modo como Deus pensa. O mundo não precisa ouvir nossas opiniões. Quando os amigos nos pedem conselhos para lidarem com filhos, chefes, finanças, medos, depressão, ou seja lá o que for, não precisam saber nossa opinião. Temos de estar prontas a levá-los à Biblia, explicando-lhes o seguinte: "Não tenho respostas para seus problemas, mas sei quem tem. Veja o que a Palavra de Deus tem a dizer sobre a situação." O propósito de Deus não é restringir somente aos pastores a responsabilidade de levar as pessoas ao conhecimento da Bíblia. Cada uma de nós deve estar habilitada a usar a Palavra de modo eficaz, não apenas em nossa adoração e modo de viver, mas também quando socorrermos quem precisa de ajuda. Passar tempo com a Bíblia deve ser uma prioridade para nós, assim como querer ser mulheres que vivam seus ensinos - que os leiam, estudem, memorizem, meditem, apliquem em sua vida e usem a Palavra em oração a Deus -, deixando que ele nos mostre os seus caminhos. ~ Nancy Leigh Demoss ❣️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CoUVpIcO6H8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When we sin, guilt in the conscience is a gift from God, intended to drive us back to His best for us. But God doesn’t want us to be paralyzed by shame. Guilt and shame are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing.

Guilt says, “You did somethings bad.” This message is meant to bring you to the cross, to a place of repentance, restoration, and right living. It is a healthy part of the sanctification process, which calls you to press into the belief that your relationship with Christ—not your sin—defines you. It is free of undue condemnation (1 John 2:1; Rom. 8:1).

But shame sends a different message. It says, “You are something bad.” This message causes you to feel victimized, hide, and go further into your pain. It is Satan’s tool to drive you away from God. It fuels hopelessness and makes you even more vulnerable to sinful addictions and strongholds. You begin to believe that your [sinful] past and current temptations define you.

If you have asked God’s forgiveness and begun to live as a redeemed woman in obedience to His Word, your [sinful] past and current temptations do not define you.
