When He Won't Fight For You (Ephesians 5:2)
from She Wrestles with God | Daily Devotional for Women · host Giselle Ugarte
Have you ever found yourself saying, “I just want someone who will fight for me”? Same, girl. I’ve cried those words, prayed those words, and built entire fantasies around the hope that someone would finally wake up, choose me, and become the man I always hoped he could be. In this episode, we talk about what this phrase really means, and why this might be God's way of revealing something even more important to you.
