One of the things I deeply and always appreciate for my husband is when I need something, I get it. For example: I crochet often because I’m alone much more now that my children are adults. I crochet beautiful things while listening to sermons online. Yes! I can do both. This is truly one of my greatest joys for myself, my time. Please keep in mind that every child of God who listens to the Word of God makes herself more valuable to the Kingdom to bless others! And blessing others is one of my very top goals!
So yes, I love when I ask Duane for money for yarn and he opens up his wallet immediately. (Ladies, don’t get your undies in a bunch. We’ve decided Duane pays the bills.)
Husbands: bless your beautiful wives in little ways like this. She’ll love you for it!
Proverbs 18:22
He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord.
Growing up in a home without the love for God, an invalid father, heavy financial hardships, and tremendous (sometimes dangerous) discord is always difficult. Add on to that extreme shyness, a feeling of inferiority, and some may think this girl was rejected. But God’s hand was on her and His heart was for her. Today, Ann Marie Turner has performed many great services in Jesus’ name for the love of God and man; and for herself! She has ministered in the male correctional for over ten years. Along with this website, Ann is the author of Joy Stories, Volume One and The Free Incarcerated Man. Writing about the joy of the Lord and the victory that is available for a willing soul is one of Ann’s now greatest joys! Ann’s prayer for you is to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony. Celebrate the God of the Bible and your personal victories in Christ unceasingly! Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
