You’re Not the Only One

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. – Romans 12:2 (esv) Emotions – we’ve all got them. Whether or not we like to admit it, we all have a twinge of jealousy now and then or experience loneliness or let our anger get the best of us. The important thing to realize is you are not the only one who feels these things. Tami Coble Brown offers insights into how God’s Word and our sisters in Christ can help us through the rough times. Don’t let your emotional bad habits get the best of you. To paraphrase Proverbs 27:17: As iron sharpens iron, so a woman sharpens the countenance of her friend. Tami Coble Brown, a graduate of Lipscomb University, spent two years as a missionary apprentice in Northern Ireland, where she met and eventually married an Irish-born preacher, Maurice Brown.
