Let’s talk mean girls. I have come across numerous girls and women that are downright vicious. More sad is the fact that the vicious, catty nature of some girls does not change when they enter into young, middle, or late adulthood. I remember being young and naive in high school. I thought I could smile away the issues I was having. Long ago, I was a young girl, fresh out of homeschool when I entered […]
In this post, I am going to talk about the rainbow, using Bible-based facts. I love when I see a beautiful rainbow decorating the sky. Better yet is the more rare double rainbow. God’s handiwork is amazing. I could admire His creation forever and never cease to be amazed! 1) What is a rainbow? 2) What is the purpose for the rainbow? Is it simply sky decor? 3) Is the rainbow symbolically about diversity among […]
How can you know the difference between a religious fraud or a true man of God? Honestly, it can be very tricky. Deception is rampant. • That said, the man of God will consistently be producing primarily the fruit of the Spirit, such as love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance (Galatians 5: 22-23). • He should be humble, reliable. He will be repentant when necessary. • He will take initiative in […]
Some Christians have a list of sins they consider high-ranking and other sins they consider low-ranking on the scale of sinful. For many Christians, murder is high up there, as well as sexual immorality, alcoholism, drug abuse, etc. What about the sins of gossip, slander, sowing discord, and envy? Some Christians do it so often and carelessly, they likely do not even think of it as sin. Sometimes, what begins as a legitimate conversation about […]
Due to both natural desire and social conditioning, some of us ladies can get a little carried away and overzealous when it comes to getting into a relationship. This applies to some of the men as well. I have learned the importance of taking my time and living in prayerful awareness. It is very important to know as much as possible about the person before becoming involved with them. Early on and later, information may […]
I’ve stated before that I have been exposed to false doctrine. Bible literacy and prayer have helped me see errors in some of the teachings I heard. Bible literacy brings healing. Among wrong things taught, incorrect comparisons have been made between males and females and husbands and wives. Some of the analogies made are harmful. If anyone has heard any of these analogies and believe them to be true, I suggest you study God’s word […]
The plight of black people and others who suffer true injustice and discrimination is real and tragic. For far too long, justice and equality has not existed for some. Throughout history, steps have been made toward improvement. As of lately, there seems to be more progress. In pretty much every institution and system- whether it be healthcare, the workforce, the judicial system, and education system, slavery has been cleverly disguised, but has continued. People have […]
Today, I am talking about marriage. During these times, many people are worried about getting married. This is understandable, because people have difficulties, and many marriages (including among Christians) end in divorce. I aim to observe marriage in light of scripture. This helps me have a positive, yet realistic attitude about it. The love of Jesus Christ is perfect love. Jesus Christ loves the church and wooed the church with His love. He died for […]
Today, I am talking about Christian dating. I have taken note of the quality of some of the relationships (and even marriages) I have observed. First, in some, there is a lot of fussing, fighting, sometimes physical altercations, lying, verbal abuse, control, cheating, using each other, getting together for reasons that don’t have to do with love, etc. Secondly, there is certainly going to be conflict sometimes, but there are right ways to deal with […]
People desire to feel respected, valued, loved, and appreciated. Certainly, men and women need and desire respect. I have learned that for men, respect is particularly important. The Bible commands in Ephesians 5: 33, “Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.” Here are ways a wife can show respect to her husband man: – Admire him. Men tend […]
