Today’s Guest Author: Rita Bragg
Breakout Session Leader for MAKING A DIFFERENCE Conference for Women and Girls,
February 28-March 1 (details below)
“A person standing alone can be attacked & defeated, but two can stand back to back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.”
Ecclesiastes 4:12 NLT
- Have you ever had the thought “my man is about to drive me crazy?”
- Or “If he turns the television to another ball game, I’m leaving and going to my Mother’s.”
- Or have you ever called a girlfriend in complete frustration with your husband’s lack of communication and respect.
- Or possibly, you’ve cried yourself to sleep because, once again, you’ve discovered your husband has been looking at pornography on his computer, or maybe even had an inappropriate relationship.
If you answered “yes” to any of the above, then I would love for you to join me in the breakout session “Marriage God’s Way: A Strand of Three.”
I walked through a very dark and difficult season with my husband. I was that wife crying herself to sleep because of her husband’s addiction to pornography. I felt hurt and betrayed
and we lost much.
But at the very bottom of that dark and difficult season, I found a relationship with the Lord that I never knew was possible. I had grown up in a Christian home and had a lifetime of head knowledge. But, my husband’s brokenness was the catalyst to a life altering time for our marriage and our family. God has proved Himself so much more than faithful and continues to redeem so much of what was lost.
In this workshop will we talk about things like:
· Choosing to walk in forgiveness instead of bitterness and resentment.
· Learning to see our husband the way the Father sees him, instead of our own “filters” and limited views.
· How we can choose love and connection in our relationships, even when feeling vulnerable and fearful.
And many other practical, real life tools and principles that we can apply, not only in our marriages, but all our relationships!
If there is one thing that the Father has so gently and lovingly taught me over the last ten years is that I’m not capable of doing this life or my relationships on my own. In fact, it’s never been His plan for ME to work things out. He designed me to need Him; to depend on Him in my daily life, and in my marriage.
Come join me at as we explore doing marriage God’s way.
At MAKING A DIFFERNECE, Rita will be leading one Breakout Session entitled, “A Chord of Three Strands”.
Think this would encourage someone else?
