With A Little Help From Our Friends…

Written on December 14th, 2011 20 Comments

Today is a big day. Really big. CAPITAL LETTER BIG!! ;) Why? Today our new, interactive GiG devotional book, TRUSTING GOD, A GIRLFRIEND IN GOD FAITH ADVENTURE releases. Woohoo! (Happy dance with us!)

My Uncluttered Prayer

Written on October 18th, 2011 48 Comments

There always seem to be a million voices vying for my attention. Can you relate? True confessions: I often choose good things instead of the Best thing. Instead of the Best One.

I wish it weren’t the case, but it is. I get easily distracted and frazzled. I never seem to satisfy my to-do list and I struggle with time management. It surprises me continually that God would choose to use a cluttered woman such as me. But His grace abounds. It reaches my most unfocused, unproductive heart places.

The song was inspired by Psalm 80, in which the psalmist continually repeats the phrase, “Restore us, O God; make your face shine upon us, that we may be saved.”

It’s a prayer I continually pray… because I’m in constant need of the grace of God. I’m a total restoration project! And He is a generous God – constantly willing to listen to hearts that are humbled …

Take My Heart Captive Video

Written on September 12th, 2011 13 Comments

The devotion today is about the itchy pest of temptation. In order to be strong when we face temptations, we need God’s help. We are able to resist and refocus when we align our hearts and desires to the heart and will of God. That’s what this song is about. Hope it blesses!

Yes, Lord. Please take my heart captive. Amen

Amen?

Where does this song find you today?

Blessed to be doing life with you,

Gwen…

We are so excited to be launching our new Girlfriends in God website! Over the past several years, God has allowed Sharon, Mary and I to come along side of hundreds of thousands of women from all over the world through the GiG devotions and our speaking engagements. The LORD is on the move, longing to bring help, hope, and healing to wounded hearts and to give direction, connection, and protection to each of us who look to Him and to His strength. We, as His daughters, are simply along for the ride. It’s HIS show. We pray that this …
