Quote:
Titus 2:3-5
3 Older women likewise are to exhibit behavior fitting for those who are holy, not slandering, not slaves to excessive drinking, but teaching what is good. 4 In this way they will train the younger women to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 to be self-controlled, pure, fulfilling their duties at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the message of God may not be discredited.

Welcome to the Women's Discussion Room.

Here is the place that we women can come to share our joys and sorrows, triumphs and failures, and the knowledge we have gained as we walk with the Lord. It is also the place where we safely ask questions concerning anything that pertains to our walk so that we may continue to grow.

It is my prayer that those of us who are older (at least in our faith) will be able to assist those of us who are a little younger and share our experiences. Although it is good to learn by making our own mistakes sometimes it is better to learn from someone who has "been there, done that".

With Bible.org's launch of it's new Women's Ministry Super Category I see an increase in the number of Women here at our forums. Please continue to keep this forum and Bible.org in your prayers as we reach the world for Christ.

If you are not already a member of our Women's Forums you will not be able to access the private area for more personal women's discussion. To participate in these forums you will need to join the "Women's Discussion Group" via your User Control Panel, simply select the group and click submit.

Please feel free to start a thread or join in the discussions that are already in place. If you have any suggestions, comments, or problems please do not hesitate to let me know. Feel free to either send me a pm or an e-mail. If you send an e-mail just put "Women's Forum" in the subject line this will prevent it from going to my bulk mail folder!

You may also contact our Women's Ministry Moderator "dcljoy" if you need any assistance.

Any gentlemen while we appreciate the fact that you want to help when reading items in this public area of the garden we would like to request that you please stay on the path and out of the flowers and vegetables. If you have something to add that you think would be beneficial please send a note to Dinah (dcljoy) and she'll think about it. Thanks for your understanding.

In His Service

I don't want to burden anyone w/the details of the nonsense my life has become. I will say that I am a 30 year old mother of 2 daughters. I am on my second marriage and my husband walked out 2 months ago. I'm not sure where he is or what he's doing, he refuses to speak to me and has retained an attorney and is trying to evict me and my daughters from our home. I can't find a job. I was saved 11 years ago, but I g uess I lost my way.

I only knew my husband 1 month before we got married, I was single for all the years before that after my 1st divorce. My husband isn't a believer, and I honestly feel like somebody just beat the tar out of me and I can't get back up again. I've thrown myself at God's feet. I can barely talk to Him, or anyone else most days. I just look up and cry. I'm tired, ashamed, and scared. I've spent more time in honest prayer w/the Lord since my husband left than I have in years.

But I'm so lost and i don't understand anything and it's a constant fight to speak life over my husband, my daughters and I and not live as if I have no hope. I just don't know anything anymore.

Dear One

this is a safe place to talk ..... and we, your sisters in Christ, will pray for you.

Be assured that Jesus knows how you feel, and He also endured heartbreak and betrayal, and He put Himself in that position for love of you ... so know you are loved with a love that will never leave you, or will never fade or diminish over the years - even over eternity - you are loved!

Please go and see a doctor, as it sounds as if you are depressed and he/she may be able to help you with that, you need to be strong for your daughters and also to make sure you receive everything that you are entitled to, again for your daughters so that you can start to make a new life for them and for yourself.

But the best words I can give are Jesus' own :

Matthew 11:28-30 28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and my load is not hard to carry.” Context (NET)


and obediently do as He invites you to do - come to Him, rest in Him, let Jesus share the burden with you.

your sister in Christ

Dinah
