The Girlfriends Guidebook; Navigating Female Friendships

There are ample books for women on dating, career, marriage and motherhood, but few thoughtful writings about the everyday handling of female friendships.

Interesting, considering numerous studies show that female friendships are an important part of a healthy lifestyle. In fact, bonding between females has been shown to reduce stress, lower blood pressure and even fuel creativity.

How then, can something so good for us, be so utterly complicated? While they are healthy, female friendships are also deeply complex, often involving issues like control and jealousy.

The Jesus Mission
“How to Know You’ve Been Born Again”
Chapter 6, pp. 72-74

Believers often ask me how they can know if they have been born again. Again we will rely on the words of Jesus, who answered this in general terms in His talk with Nicodemus.

He said, “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit” (John 3:8). In other words, even though you may not be able to pinpoint exactly when or how your new birth came about, if it has happened, there will be evidence (just as hearing the wind is evidence that there is a wind).

The Waiting Place

Sometimes our best isn’t good enough. After doing everything in our power, we come to a point where that which we hope for is still beyond our reach.

We work, we think, we pray. We seek help from others. We do all we know to do and then, having done all, we stand. We dig in deep and put our hope and faith in God. And then…we wait.
