Simply put: DON'T!

Be encouraged by Michelle's audio teaching, encouraging believers to stay faithful to the calling God has on your life. You have everything to gain!

Hello, my Women Growing In Christ friends! Last year, I focused on marriages - with GREAT testimonies and encouragement from women across the country. I'm sooo glad to finally share The Wife Academy, which grew from that experience. (I know - y'all probably thought I was chillin' - I was working on THIS.) Whether you're a newlywed, approaching your golden anniversary, or just wondering if you're ready to be a wife in the first place, I encourage you to check out these videos and, later, order the rest of the videos if you'd like to go further. And PLEASE share this with your friends through email and other social networks. You may never know how you saved a family by passing along information and encouragement. Finally, if you're in the DFW area and/or a member of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, I hope we can touch bases this fall during a Bible Institute class I'm facilitating entitled "Developing a Wife's Discerning Heart." Thank you for all the love, my sisters. And, please, don't hesitate to share your prayer needs with me. One of our greatest weapons in this world is prayer! In His Love,

Help for Overwhelmed Folks!

Today, I'm working from my "other" office - Panera because it seems that when I'm home, very little gets done. Normally, when I'm here, I'm under a deadline. I come in, I fire up my computer, I write and write until it's all done. Today is different. I have 10 different things on my to-do list. For some reason, after I wrote down all that I needed to accomplish, I suddenly felt overwhelmed. Where do I start? What's the priority? Even if I don't finish #3, I MUST finish #8 before my daughter gets out of school. In the midst of feeling overwhelmed, I thought about an easy escape - Facebook. If I just opened up that browser, I could take my mind off all the things I had to do for a moment. But the Holy Spirit spoke up inside me and let me know that I was using Facebook (as fun as it might be) as a crutch to be unproductive. Ouch! Well, even after He told me that, I still wasn't feeling any better about my list of things-to-do. Didn't have any more guidance than I'd had five minutes earlier. And then He did what He does so well - brought scripture to my remembrance. "In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:6. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for reminding me. Thank You, Lord, for the power of Your word to remind us of all the provision You have already made for us!

Just Checking in :)

Hello friends - virtual et al,
2011 ended with a bang, and 2012 has been no less adventurous. Last year was so fulfilling in that I was able to share information with wives. It seems that working with wives is turning out to be my passion and calling. Working on even more to share in the near future. God Bless!
