Thought For Today | A New Thing - The Imperfect Wives Ministry

Wives, what has worked for you before may not work now. It’s a new year -a new season.

It’s time to dig deeper. Do you desire to see change come into your marriage? What you are currently doing is no longer enough. You need a refreshing -a fresh revelation of God’s Word. God wants to pour a new depth of understanding and wisdom into you. You have to be willing to let go of what has worked in the past and seek God for more!

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” -Isaiah 43:19

Praying for you today, Cherie

God gave me this scripture a while back, it encourages me so much when I’m tempted to get caught up in the past. I’m reminded that God is at work and my only job is to be obedient to Him and trust him. I’m ready for the new 🙂 a few of the same issues have come to the surface which scare me, such as sexual intimacy issues in our marriage and while I’m tempted to let my mind wonder and go way overboard in my own effort to fix this issue, I’m reminded that it may seem like the past is returning but if i step back and just let God work, He will resolve this issue and creat a river in what use to be dry land ;). It may be an old issue but this time my reaction to it must be different, the way I handle it should be different then it was In the past, waiting on God rather then trying in my strength to fix it. It’s a struggle with my flesh, but He who is in me is greater then he who is in this world 😉

Thank you for sharing this Ashley!! So many of us can raise our hands and say “I’m there with you.” Creating a flowing river is what I desire and am even seeing come to life in my marriage through Bill!!

Thank you,Cherie! I needed this! 🙂 I get stuck on doing the same thing in all areas of life. I hate change even when it’s good,that’s something I am working on though.
