One of the most disastrous ideas we face is this: love is a feeling. Survey says: nope.

You may well feel powerful positive emotions toward your spouse. I hope you do! But love in biblical terms NEVER reduces to feelings. True marital love is a commitment; it’s a covenant borne of the gospel of Christ.

Here are some truths about your feelings and your marriage, friend:

–You could EASILY feel drawn to folks who aren’t your spouse.

–Your feelings toward anyone wax and wane.

–Biblical marriage includes many feelings.

–But marriage is in no way based on your feelings.

–Marriage is based in God’s truth, God’s grace, and God’s ways.

The idea that the person you marry is the only person you could ever feel powerfully about is frankly ridiculous, honestly. It’s just not true. There are many members of the opposite sex who you could connect with, laugh with, build a life with, and so on. It’s just not the case that there is only one person on this planet who could elicit your affection. No way.

It is true, surely, that the person we marry is ideally a good match for us in lots of respects. That’s no bad thing at all. It’s good to think through how much we line up, what our differences are, where we complement one another, and much more like this. It’s also great if you feel surging love and attraction for your spouse. That’s wonderful! It’s very likely that as your marriage strengthens, you will indeed be consistently delighting in your spouse. But never make the very common mistake of thinking that those feelings are the BASIS of your marriage. As a Christian, the basis of your marriage is God’s will, God’s ways, God’s truth, and God’s grace.

Feelings-driven marriage is no doubt responsible for the breakdown of many homes in our time. It sounds harmless, and Hollywood sells this vision to us like crazy, but it is not harmless at all. Feelings ebb and flow. Feelings rise and fall. Feelings come and go. Feelings are given us by God, but nowhere in Scripture are we called to base anything in our life–including our commitment to our spouse–on our feelings. That is a disastrously bad foundation, to cut it straight.

Let me put it this way: if your marriage is a feelings-driven marriage, you’re in trouble. Those high feelings just will not sustain themselves. And when they don’t, you’ll be strongly tempted to think you’ve “fallen out of love.” No you haven’t. You’re just going through the normal swings and twists of life in a fallen world that features your own regular battle with the flesh (and your spouse’s). Don’t embrace or promote a feelings-driven marriage, friend. For the good of your marriage, your kids, and your walk with God, enjoy the good, but base your commitment to your spouse in God.

Embrace a covenant-driven marriage, not a feelings-driven one. Pray continually to stay faithful and committed. Ask God to make your heart a forgiving heart. Cry out to God when you are in the low places as all of us will be at some time. Petition the Lord for more tenderness between you, more closeness, more unity, more togetherness, more joy, more love, and more delight. God loves such prayers, and God will answer such prayers in his perfect wisdom. And yes, celebrate God’s great kindness when God really does forge a strong marriage between you and your spouse. Don’t give God a little bit of muted praise; give God exultant worship for his great work in your life.

Remember, marriage is ultimately not about you. Marriage is about God. God is the one who loves your marriage; God loves your marriage infinitely more than you do, I assure you. You are not the one who is going to keep yourself married; God is the one who is going to keep you married.

Marriage, as with all of life (single or married alike) is about God and God’s grace. Take serious comfort in that.

Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Matthew 19:6

We are never voting our way out of this. Both parties are controlled. Democrats are communists, Republicans are Zionists. Jew bankers run them both.

“Getting a top job dramatically increases women’s chances of divorce, even in egalitarian countries. Why isn’t it the same for men? Having a successful and enjoyable career alongside a fulfilling romantic relationship is a life goal for many of us. But even in the most gender-equal countries, finding a partnership that lasts is trickier for high-flying women than men…Female medical doctors, police officers and priests who progressed in their careers also followed the trend.” (Source)

How could this be when even Christian women are encouraged from a young age to have a career? Is having a job in the workforce God’s will for women? NO!!! None of this should surprise us at all. God didn’t create us for the workforce. He created us for the home. He created men to be the providers. This is clear from the beginning of Creation.

Why do women fight me so hard on this and give me all of the “what ifs…”? Don’t they see how far more valuable it is for women to be in their homes, being helpers suitable for their husbands rather than for their bosses, raising their own children rather than having strangers raising them, and being homemakers who care for the welfare and health of their families? What has blinded women to what is best for them and their families? Why have they become so hardened by the feminist agenda and jumped onto the broad path that leads to destruction?

Trad wives has become popular on TikTok. There’s these young women who are staying home and caring for their boyfriends or husbands and then are telling it to the world. All of this is fine until the going gets rough. Being a wife, mother, and keeper at home requires a sacrificial life which few young women have any desire of doing. It requires serving your family, giving up your “hopes and dreams” of becoming someone important in their eyes, and working extremely hard. It means cleaning the house over and over again, cooking another meal, wiping up after sick children, sleepless nights, and other trials. It’s not the easy, pleasure-filled life that young women imagine having these days.

But let me tell you, young women, it’s the good life! Nothing good in life comes easy. I have been married over 42 years. I have raised four children. My sixteenth grandchild will make her appearance soon. My husband and I both turn 65 years old this year. I have suffered through many horrible illnesses and injuries. BUT my life is a blessing! It’s a joy to be growing old with the man of my youth whom we’ve raised children will. It’s a joy to have close relationships with all of my children and their children. There is NO greater joy in life than to have children walking in Truth! God’s ways are indeed perfect.

Yes, it’s the narrow path that few want to walk on but it leads to life. Everyone is searching for fulfillment. Most are searching in all of the wrong places. They are pursuing their pleasures rather than pursuing God and His will. They will never find lasting joy and fulfillment apart from God and being obedient to Him. Jump off the broad path now, women, and begin living out God’s perfect will for your life. Instead of investing all of your time and energy into strangers, invest in those whom you love most, your family. They need and want you.

I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
1 Timothy 5:14

Many women ask me what books I recommend since I don’t recommend any that are written by female preachers. They don’t teach biblical womanhood. They don’t teach what God commands they teach. They have no biblical qualifications for teaching what they are teaching. Older women are commanded to teach the young women biblical womanhood as clearly stated in Titus 2:3-5.

I have a saved Instagram story with all of my favorite books. Since many women are not on Instagram, I decided to make a list of my favorite books! I will keep adding more so keep checking back. The book shelf you see in the picture above are all of the books I love!

I have written three books on this topic. The Power of the Transformed Wife is my testimony and what I learned on the way to becoming a transformed wife. Biblical Womanhood: A Study Guidegoes through every aspect of biblical womanhood and takes you through the Bible with the many verses that support it. Daily Wisdom For Biblical Wisdom is an every day read of the many handwritten posts that I made for years. (All of them are on Amazon.)

Created to Be His Help Meet by Debi Pearl is the book that began my transformation in becoming the wife that God has called me to be. In my opinion, it is the best book on marriage for women to read. “No man has ever climbed out from underneath his wife’s criticism to become a better man.”

On the Other Side of the Garden by Virginia Ruth Fugate is excellent! “The unbiblical wife is usually unaware that she can mentally and emotionally abuse her husband’s masculinity when she treats him as a child, constantly complains about what a bad husband he is, or admonishes him in public.”

The Happy Housewife by Elizabeth Baker. “Everything we do should be done heartily, giving service to our Lord with a willing and vibrant spirit. The way a home is cared for determines its loveliness much more than its original cost does. A clean home that has a cherished appearance brings honor to the people who live there, especially to the woman.”

My Delight: Loving My Husband by Teri Maxwell. “Does your husband spend his days working so you can stay home with the children? Supplying your husband with meals, clean clothes, and a picked-up house is a way of expressing gratitude for his investment of working that allows you to be a stay-at-home wife. You can also bring disappointment to your husband if you aren’t tackling these basic jobs. It isn’t hard to see how that disappointment could also turn into bitterness.”

Creative Counterpart by Linda Dillow. “Most men have stopped loving a wife who consistently acts like a mother, spiritual advisor, and dietician.”

The Excellent Wife by Martha Peace. “A wife will never be what the Lord wants her to be until she graciously and joyfully comes under the authority of her husband.”

Lady Like: Living Biblically by Rebekah Curtis and Rose Adle. “Lydia received only three verses yet women have extrapolated from her that God wants women in lucrative professions and be leaders in the church!”

Feminine Appeal by Carolyn Mahaney. “But what is surprising and distressing is how many Christian woman have been seduced by the feminist doctrine…Not a few Christian wives and mothers have joined the women of our culture in the mass exodus from their homes.”

A Woman By God’s Grace by Anna Mary Byler. “Homemaking is said to be a biblical lifestyle and a joy to the Christian wife and mother. It is within this realm that she finds joy in housecleaning!”

You Can Be the Wife of a Happy Husband by Darien Cooper. “The basis for your discontentment and inability to accept your husband lies in your expectations of him and his failure to meet your goals.”

The Surrendered Wife By Laura Doyle. “Stop telling your husband what to do, what to wear, what to say, and how to do things, even if you think you’re helping.”

Free to Stay at Home by Marilee Horton. “Christian wives are giving up this control of being keepers at home. And yet, women are by droves, abdicating their power, abandoning their hives, to become mere worker bees in another’s hive.”

Who Stole Cinderella by Denise Renner. “If your wounded emotions aren’t dealt with and healed, you may find yourself creating something very toxic, volatile, and unhealthy in the laboratory of your life, and it will adversely effect every relationship you have.”

The Way Home by Mary Pride. “The real reason that couples are so attracted to family planning has nothing to do with the Bible. It has to do with fear.”

The Christian Homemaker’s Handbook by Pat Ennis and Dorothy Patterson. “The home has long been the focus of moral authority, and the women who preside over homes in many ways provide the necessary cohesion for the entire society. A good society and a good home are inextricably intertwined. You cannot have one without the other.”

Trust or Control: Exposing the Root Cause of a Woman’s Inability to Trust by Dorcas Stutzman. “I believe with all my heart that one of the deadliest enemies of that destiny of greatness is the matriarchal spirit. That sprit, sometimes referred to as a Jezebel spirit, is first of all a spirit of rebellion, which uses manipulation and control to gain power by whatever means possible.”

Praise Her in the Gates and The Fruit of Her Hands by Nancy Wilson. “A woman does not commit herself to submit to her husband if he makes no mistakes. She submits to her husband because she know that God does not make mistakes.”

Eve in Exile by Rebekah Merkle. “But a woman raising her children is not only shaping the next generation, she is also shaping little humans who are going to live forever. The souls she gave birth to are immortal. Immortal. And somehow, our culture looks at a woman who treats that as if it might be an important task and says, ‘It’s a shame she’s wasting herself. She could be doing something important – like filing paperwork for insurance claims.’”

Feminism: Women and Her Work by J. W. Porter. (Bereabookstore.com) “In America, where the Bible has been opened widest and most freely circulated, women are most highly honored, of anywhere in the world. And it is a little curious that in this country is where we hear most about women’s wrongs and women’s rights. It may be well to bear in mind how women’s public speaking has been connected with various recent heresies.”

Keep a Quiet Heart by Elisabeth Elliot. “Our goal is not to be comfortable and have everything turn out fine but to be godly and make an impact on our dying world and its values.”

Be Fruitful and Multiply by Nancy Campbell. “One of the biggest threats to the devil is husbands and wives who understand God’s revelation for marriage and who will bring forth godly offspring for His glory.

Beautiful In God’s Eyes: The Treasures of the Proverbs 31 Woman by Elizbeth George. “God uses His Word to transform you into a woman of divine power who more brilliantly reflects His beauty.”

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
1 Peter 3:5,6

A recent Project Veritas video exposed a “pastor” who is grooming children to except transgender ism and homosexuality. This sick deviant is actually reporting parents who oppose their children getting into homosexuality and transgenderism to CPS! Read that again, it’s quite shocking.

Here is the video for you to watch for yourself.
