Walking in Forgiveness May 05, 2024

Show notes

I get asked a lot about forgiveness and letting go of hurt. How do you forgive when someone has not asked for forgiveness? How do you forgive if someone doesn't even know the pain they inflicted? Do you just forget about it? Do you avoid people?

What does the Bible say about forgiveness and bitterness? How does an unforgiving heart affect us?

This week's podcast is the first in a short series dealing with this topic. In the next few weeks, I will ask my girls to join me and get their wisdom concerning forgiveness in relationships.

Summary of the Song Apr 28, 2024

Show notes

Epilogue

"Put me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm. For love is a strong as death, jealousy is as severe as Sheol; Its flashes are flashes of fire, The very flame of the Lord. Many waters cannot quench love, Nor will rivers overflow it; If a man were to give all the riches of his house for love, it would be utterly despised."

God's love is as strong as death and that kind of love is a gift from Him.

The Song Chapter 8 - And They Lived Happily Ever After Apr 21, 2024

Show notes

The only way a couple can truly live "happily ever after" is if they live their lives in obedience to the Lord.

The bride has learned her loyalty is to her husband, and she wants everyone to know. She wants the world to know there is no way any other man can get to her, can steal her heart, and steal her affections. She stands with her husband, no matter what. She belongs to him and him only.

And isn't that the way it's supposed to be in a believers's life? Loyal to the Lord. The world cannot get to her to steal her heart or her affections. A believing woman stands with Christ, no matter what - she belongs to Him and Him only.

The Song - Chapter 7 - The Second Honeymoon Apr 14, 2024

Show notes

Though weddings are beautiful, they are not nearly as beautiful as a marriage that has stood the test of time and commitment. Real beauty emerges after some heartache. Real beauty is when a couple is still dancing after 25, 35, 45, 65 years together. Real beauty emerges when they are forgiving of each other's sins, and when they don't see ugly, even if they've lived with ugly for years. When a husband and wife are still meeting at their own personal altar, still taking pictures with their heritage, and finally so sad when death separates them in this life. That's real beauty and we learn all about this kind of beauty in this week's podcast.

The Song Chapter 5 - Where Did Their Love Go? Mar 31, 2024

Show notes

When I taught this chapter, I titled it "Where Did Their Love Go?" Their love really didn't go anywhere - it's just that the bride allowed it to fade. Like her, sometimes we allow our love to fade. We drift from the one we love. We sometimes wander, we sometimes forget, and even sometimes don't want to be bothered with the one whom we love the most.

We also learned that one of the best things we can do when this happens is to rehearse all the reasons we loved in the first place. We also learned that our love sometimes fades for the Lord! The One who saved us! But when He saved us, we became His friends. Jesus, what a friend of sinners!

I trust this week's podcast will encourage you.

We all feel lonely at times. Sometimes it can feel especially lonely for women of any age when they wonder when or if they will get married.

Bustling Family Life Feb 25, 2024

Show notes

I'm taking a break from airing the Song of Songs and actually it's a good time because we've reached the halfway point of the book. This week, I was joined on the podcast by my daughter-in-law, Maureen, and we talked about all things family! We talked about what it's like in the middle years of raising a family with one getting ready to graduate from high school and the effect that has on parents and siblings. And in the middle of it, we talked about prioritizing time with the Lord and time with your husband. Our conversation was so fun and I hope it will be an encouragement to you.
