I relate so much to Ruth and my husband is so similar to Troy. God is so gracious towards us when we put two very different saved sinners together and sanctify us side by side.
This video is so helpful. I love the transparency. Many Christian relationships in church circles are not open about what it looks like walking your faith out in your marriage.
Dear Ruth!!! As a momma of grown boys, i SO resonate with much of what you said! The transitions are hard and the expectations get too high. Such good reminders you gave us... thank you. And a rhythm with Jesus keeps us grounded, come what may. Bless you for sharing your heart! Sometimes I feel like no one else "gets it"... and I really needed to hear this today, to know that you too understand. 💜
I found this podcast so very encouraging. I jotted down the encouragement and will post it to remind me. Thank you. I am in a rather unique season, I think, at least among those I am around. My boys are adults (20 and 30) and still at home. I am grateful for where I do see God at work and I am hopeful for where I don't see and I am confident He will contine to work.
Congratulations! Your new book sounds really great and I can't wait to read it. Just ordered it last night. I also just found your channel and subscribed. I have been so blessed by your other books and your beautiful art! Thank you for all you share with all of us!
Thank you Ruth… from the other side of the world, from Italy (!) I thank you for your open heart bringing me back to God’s word and accepting again(!) - “take MY. yoke”- the limits He has {kindly, gently} set for me with physical and cognitive weaknesses yet safe with Him because HIS yoke leads in the right direction, His direction and with Him I find rest for my soul. Thank you Jesus for Ruth and thank you for the care you have for a true need… Annette x
Thank you 🌿Ruth & Troy🌿for this beautiful discussion. I really needed to hear your very helpful words and life experiences. Will share this with my husband of 36 years. Look forward to more of your conversations! Many Blessings from Kentucky! 🙏🥰
This was so helpful! I took notes to "preach to myself" 1 Peter 5:10, Psalm 84:11, 2 Peter 1:3 and the wisdom that each of you shared. I am working through Truthfilled right now! Thank you Ruth for sharing this podcast ❤
Hi Ruth!!!! I just wanted to let you know that I discovered your beautiful art and books at Barnes & Noble for the very first time this weekend!!! I was amazed at your art, and how so beautifully created to show the goodness and glory of God! My husband showed it to me and I fell in love! I have your book, beholding and becoming, I just got it yesterday! I’ve also ordered when striving ceases and eager to start reading. God has used your art to really speak to my heart and inspire me! The word of God is everything to me and I love how it is so beautifully incorporated, in every single thing that you do and create! Just wanted to encourage you and let you know that I really appreciate your art!!!-Jess
Love your sharing here and as soon as you mentioned marinating it resonated in my spirit before you explained what you meant! It:s a few years since you shared this but God is still using it! God Bless You!
I just discovered your books on Amazon and already own 2 of them. Your art, your message are a blessing. Thank you for sharing both with me and the world.
This book sounds amazing. I've read When Strivings Cease and am going through the GraceLaced companion journal at the moment. Your books are something very special indeed.
What a lovely inspiring video I stumbled across today! I am full of joy after listening to you instruct us to marinate and saturate ourselves in the word of God!
Reading it now! Beautifully written. It’s clear loads of prayer and digging deep into God’s word were done in preparation for this book. Thank you, Ruth for choosing to write. And thank you Simons’ family of men, for giving Ruth the space to do so! ❤️
I know I am late 😂 but this is great. I have been marinating in fear, worry, and doubt. But I want to marinate in joy. I want to give all my worries to God. He loves you! God bless y'all
