Bible Gateway ~ The Bible At Your Fingertips

Image
With technology advances it seems more and more convenient to have the Bible where ever you are at whatever time you need it. Most of us carry a phone, tablet or laptop with us so having access to the Bible on one of those devices just seems appropriate and convenient. And in America we are SO blessed to be able to worship freely giving us this freedom.  Bible Gateway  (BibleGateway.com) is a wonderful website that contains over 200 versions of the Bible in more than 70 languages. The convenience of this not only includes your preference of version or language but also the ability to compare versions of different passages of scripture for a more in depth study of the Bible.  One of my favorite things on the website is the ability to sign up for there newsletters. They have different daily devotionals, verse of the day subscription, reading plans and the list goes on. They are delivered right to your email for you to read at your own convenience throughou...

Grieving the Child I Never Knew by Kathe Wunneneberg

Image
Losing a child is one of the worst experiences anyone can face. It is one of the most lonely losses because people don't remember with you or grieve with you unlike when an older child or person in general passes. They all have memories too; where as a small child, those are not there. Most people forget quite quickly what has happened to you and it is easy to leave it and downplay your own sorrow. But dealing with it is much smarter and will help you heal much quicker. How do I know? Because I've been there; twice. The first time was extremely hard and took me almost 2 years to recover from emotionally. This second time is so recent (November 2015) that I am still in the healing process. It started with denial and is now finally coming to a place where I can handle it. I was very happy to run into this book on a website. I didn't want to read it but knew I just had to. I needed help. I needed to not feel so alone. And most of all I needed God to help me through it...

How My Miscarriage Ruined My Sex Life & Why I'm Taking It Back

Image
Though I don't like to admit it, my miscarriage rocked my world in more ways than I thought even possible. One of those impacts happened in the bedroom and it almost ruined my marriage. What people don't tell you about a miscarriage is that it can really make you feel inadequate in many ways and it made me feel like I was hardly a woman. Women are made to have babies and my body couldn't even do that right. I let it eat me to the point of my isolating myself and even after the go ahead from the doctor to resume sex I refused for the longest time. When we did start again it was so robotic and boring. I didn't like to be touched anymore and felt like shit about it. Then came the time to start trying again and every month was a disappointment leading me to more depression, isolation and sex was a chore. Literally a chore. I would look at my fertility chart, tell Lawrence the days we had to have sex and that was the extent of it. Sometimes even then we didn't h...
