In continuation, some men and women have to a degree, lost senses of their identities and the understanding of their roles. Of course, not all men and all women are in this sad state of confusion. However, some don’t seem to really know who they are, or how to conduct themselves anymore. In fact, many of these people are the same ones who insist that there is basically no gender distinction in roles. I’m not...
In this post, I have some issues to address concerning gender, roles, and the current condition of society, as it pertains to relationships. Men and women are of equal value and worth in the sight of God. However, men and women are different. This is not news, right? Maybe it’s not news to some more than to others. In this post, I will acknowledge God-given differences between men and women, and the roles they were...
Women continue to lose by giving away their power to men. A man naturally would become what he needs to become if a woman would require him to do so. Some women will not require a man to measure up before they sleep with him, date him, or marry him. Women give their power to men out of desperation, ignorance, and low self-esteem typically. These women often are not living right themselves when it comes...
As I look at the mess society has become, I recognize a root problem of it all. I see major dysfunction close to me. Painfully close. One in a leadership position is belittling, gaslighting, and controlling another. The recipient is somewhat gullible and is getting confused and messed up in the head, believing the emotional and spiritual abuse. A skewed understanding of God’s word according to this abusive leader is rubbing off on the recipient....
Sometimes, there is opposition to a relationship from outsiders. Even on the occasions where there is a healthy relationship between a man and a woman, hate can come from the friends or family of one or both partners. Haters will hate. It is very important for a couple to guard their relationship. For whatever reason, some are in opposition to the union of a couple. I think it is well known that some women are...
When I say high-value, I am speaking of character; not money or any other tangible assets. I understand that not everyone is a Christian. Not everyone even desires a high-quality man. This is not a post to guarantee someone a partner or a spouse, but is advice to increase the likelihood of success in attracting the right person. This post is to encourage like-minded singles who are fellow believers in Jesus Christ and are living...
This post is not an attack against anyone. We live in a broken world with broken people who need healing. We all hurt in some kind of way. We all need healing. Healing can and does happen for many. Thank God! Yet, we live in a dangerous world with some dangerous people. It is very important that we live in awareness and practice caution. That is the point of this post. I want to encourage...
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...
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. Like anyone else, he will make mistakes....
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...
