“He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and
to walk humbly with your God.”
Micah 6:8
_________________________
This week we deal with the heart. What does God want from our heart? This scripture above gives us a clue: He requires us to pursue justice; love mercy; and walk humbly with Him. He wants our hearts to break for what breaks His heart. He wants us to have a revelation of what His will is. He wants us to respond to what God has called us to. He wants us to have His heart.
This week, we are going to see the heart of God and what He wants our heart to look like! It reminds me of a song that I will post below….. READ the lyrics and let them sink deep into your heart. Pray these lyrics as a prayer to our Lord & Savior!
What stirs compassion in your heart?
What tugs at your heart?

Now for our BIG ANNOUNCEMENT….
Our Next Women’s Bible Study
Girlfriends Coffee Hour is so excited to announce the next brand new Online Bible Studies that will begin October 1st!
If you are struggling with being in an unequally yoked marriage, this study is for YOU!!
“Winning Him Without Words –
10 Keys to Thriving in Your Spiritually Mismatched Marriage”.
To join this study, please send an email to GirlfriendsCoffeeHour@gmail.com with “Winning Him” in the subject line. We’ll send you all the details you need to get signed up!
This book is based on the scripture from 1 Peter 3:1 “…they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives.” This Online Bible Study will be led by Christi Wilson, Founder of Girlfriends Coffee Hour. Beverly McCormick and Donna Day will help with the blogging for this study. You won’t want to miss this study!! It is AMAZING!!!
If your husband does not share your faith, you may feel like you are walking a tightrope of spiritual survival – guarding the flame of your belief in Christ, yet unable to share it with the person you love most in the world. But your spiritually mismatched marriage can be a vibrant, blessed relationship where you’re free to grow in love with God and your man!
Winning Him With Words, written by Lynn Donovan and Dineen Miller, both Christian women married to unbelieving husbands, is your invitation to thrive instead of survive! This study begins October 1st right here on our website: GirlfriendsCoffeeHour.com.
PLUS, YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS OUR OCTOBER CONFERENCE CALL!!!
Mark your calendars also for October 2nd when Lynn Donovan,
one of the authors of this book, “Winning Him Without Words”

Living Intentionally to Be My Very BEST for Him,
Resolution for Women – Chapter 9, My Heart – PLUS … BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!
August 26, 2012 by
From the description I am not sure how I can relate to this new study. My husband is a man of God and if anything he has dragged me to the cross. I am planning on taking it because I do not want to miss out on the teachings of this wonderful team, and I am sure that there will be something in it that I can hang on to. I have so loved this study with Priscilla I am hating to see it end, but as the saying goes, "All good things must come to an end."
Thank you ladies for what you are doing.
Jackie, once you get into the study, you will see so much more about how our actions win our husbands over, period. This truly is an awesome book!!!
I would like to win a copy of Winning Him so I can continue to go deeper in my marriage. We are two hearts united but to be two souls united is where I want to be.
Anne, God has blessed this book so much! I can't wait for you to read it! It's awesome!
I'm really looking forward to this week! The song made me cry (gee thanks Mama C!), I believe all of us should have regular heart checks.
I'm also looking forward to the next study! My hubby is a strong believer to the glory of God, but I enjoy learning and know God will bless this study & we'll be better able to minister to others. Plus I'm sure there's something in there everyone!
True, Robin! There is definitely something in this book for all women! 🙂
In light of recent events in my marriage, my husband's acknowledgement that he longer speaks with God & the fact that I am being given another chance I can hardly wait for this study to begin. 1 Peter 3:1 is the verse that God showed me during the Resolutions study as my purpose for this season in my life. It is my heart's desire to see my husband turn back to God and deepen his relationship with the One who loves him more than I do
1 Peter 3:1 — Not by our Words….By Our Action! A lot of women miss that! Nagging gets NOWHERE! Love covers a multitude of sin, and has a much better way of showing our husbands just how much Jesus loves them, too! Praying for you, Girlfriend!
This is the perfect study for me. My husband is not saved and it is very hard to be in an unequaally yoked marriage raising 4 boys. I am active in church and I am active in ministering to other women and there are many times we have conflict.
Praying for you Liz, and your hubby!! May the good Lord bless him with a THIRST for righteousness!
Hi Christi!
Hope I can win the book Win Him Without Words! 🙂
I got your msg Emilie!! 🙂 LOL
Mine has fire insurance (he thinks) but no fruit. Looking forward to this study.
"Fire Insurance" …. Love that!!! Totally understand what you mean!
That is the exact scripture God gave me a few years ago for my hubby. Perhaps that is a sign 🙂
This is going to be another amazing study! Even for women with Believing husbands…there is something to be learned from this book, by all women! 🙂
Really hope I can win this book!!!
Dana, tell us why you want to win this book.
I would like to win this book, because I need to learn how to give God my relationship with my husband.
Jeanette, I would love to see you give your relationship to Him, as well. He is the only One who can change your marriage into what it should be! 🙂 Bless you Girlfriend!
Even though I feel I have a strong marriage, I believe every marriage has its down times…its during those times I tend to be negative and a nag. Fairly certain this study is for me. Big love!
You will love this study, Carol! It is really GOOD!!!
I would love to win, winning him without words. Because I feel we have gone in two directions.
I am praying Cindy.
I am very blessed to have a husband who loves the Lord like I do, but I would like to win the book to share with someone at church who might need it. I don't know who yet but I know God will lead me to them.
Oh Carol, our drawing ended last night, and our winner was announced this morning!!! 🙁 It is an awesome book though. I would highly recommend it for your friend!
Thanks for the update! Maybe next time. Love your site! Currently reading Resolutions for Women.
I am trying to catch up with you in Resolutions For Women. i would also like to be added to your next study. So glad I found your sight. Thank You
Beth, please be sure to send us an email so we can make sure we have you on our reservations list.
Our email is: Womens@GirlfriendsCoffeeHour.com
Thank You!!!
Hi to all there! My name is Đurđa and i'm from Croatia. Before few days i found a " SPIRITUALLY UNEQUALLY MARRIAGE", and thru them i found this precious page…and i'm verry thankfull to God for that..Though my husband's faith grow a slowlly, and he wasd baptize, i allways have a burden to walk alone in faith , and trying to teach my children, our four boys to faith. Our marriage will shore be finish if i didn't stand against devil and put my husband, children, my hole family in Jesu's hand and protection! Because we hade really big problems. So, when i found this two precious pages, i felt like i was found really a big treasure, because i was see that i'm not alone and you all helping me in a verry diferrent ways…we all can make in our marrage! I'm shore…because if Jesus can save my marriage, he can save every other!
I will really loved to have copy of this book, because…i live far from you and i've never bye a book thru internet, and sincerely i don't know how to do it, and i dont know when i will can collect money for her..
And other reason is that i have one girl( like my spiritual doughter), and she will married for a non believer, and my heart is really concern for her…and thru that book i CAN, i believe that i will can prove her that she CAN live in faith freely and be in love with her fiance…i want that she read and her from you and from other woman allround the world, that she can make it!
So, this are my reasons, and i hope ..and thank you all that you are here
Father bless you in all
