The will of God most of the time does not seem natural.

In this episode, we discuss how God used two women; faith, consistency and kindness to demonstrate His power & love for His people.

You may have heard the phrase "comparison is the thief of joy." President Theodore Roosevelt coined the phase and the thought was to evoke a powerful sentiment that could be life-changing. When one compares themself to others, it will often lead to feelings of inferiority or superiority— leading to unhappiness, low self-esteem, and depression. Frustration is another emotion that may rise up due to the thoughts of "not being good enough," or angry with others, which neither creates an emotionally healthy human being! In this episode, Candice & L.A. share how they are navigating saying goodbye to comparison and learning to think differently about themselves and others.

Encapsulated in the roles, responsibility and purpose of wives, lies the calling them to RESPECT their husband. This trait is often learned over time (so if you are on the struggle bus, there is hope), because wives tend to demonstrate love more readily, yet struggle with respecting their husband, especially if he doesn't deserve it or has not done enough to earn it. Wives are called to show their husband respect the same way they are called to show God respect. You may ask, "what does that look like?" Here's a verse to help you, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart" (Proverbs 3:5). Though, your husband isn't God, you can show your trust in God through your husband. By believing in God's calling on your husband life, and believing the gifts that God has given him, this will mean the world to him. Husbands needs respect. Check out this episode to learn how you can grow in respecting your husband.
