Corona virus, COVID-19, has impacted you. 

For so many the fear is tangible. 

I know it's impacting your marriage. Sadly the divorce rates in China have skyrocketed as a result of the quarantine. 

I don't want that to continue or become worse.

I want to help you. In your marriage, in this time, is it possible to be a soft landing DURING this crisis?

How can you get better? How can you and your spouse grow into the people God wants you to become DURING this crisis. 

Many of us have a lot more time on our hands. (If you're in the medical field, please know we're praying for you).

How are we using that time? 

I want to invite you to a FREE online workshop: SOFT LANDING Webinar: Be encouraged & be loved by your spouse DURING crisis

On that webinar I'll be launching a brand new group: Delight Groups to help you stay encouraged DURING the crisis. 

You don't have to do this alone. If you want to sign up for the THRIVE webinar or learn more about the groups, sign up here. 

Fear activates.

Over the Christmas break my son had a very serious health crisis. And we cried out to God. And God moved. My faith was increased and everyone who has heard the story was impacted to trust God more. 

Have you ever heard, "There are no atheists in foxholes"? People want hope to grab onto. And when reason fails to give that hope, the power of God can come in to help people experience His love.

This is an opportunity to be an example to all who you know. 

Don't be the victim who numbs your fear, but the leader who stands in faith.

Believe me I've been the former, but I am want us to stand up and encourage and pray and love those who are in fear right now. 

As Jesus-followers, we are lucky to know that this earth is not the end. But how do we encourage and pray for our neighbors? How can you start now? You may have a lot more time on your hands. How can you start to encourage and help others even RIGHT NOW?

Encourage your spouse. Love them generously so they can do their best in the world right now. Prioritize peace in your home so the storm isn't ALSO raging in your home.

Love you and I'm praying for you,

Belah

In the midst of the storm that you both would be bound together. That any worry or fear would be replaced with faith, hope and love. 

So, I messed up. I'm throwing myself under the bus here. I'm having trouble having grace with myself. I share what happened here. Maybe you can totally relate to my situation, or maybe you can't. Hopefully you'll at least be amused by my humbling...

We all have thorns in our flesh to keep us humble so hopefully this will be encouraging to you... to see me hum-iliated :)

Also...

I want to help you be motivated toward intimacy. Whether you're a wife who needs motivation to love your spouse with sexual intimacy or you're a husband who needs motivation to care about your wife's emotional desires... or anywhere in between. This is how to be motivated to intimacy: emotional, physical and spiritual in your marriage!

Enjoy!

A couple of FREE resources I mentioned (after you're motivated of course) is learn to seduce!
