This message is not for everyone, except those who can receive it. I say this because I do not try to force my beliefs on people who do not believe the way I do. I truly respect the fact that not everybody is a Christian. Still, this post is not only for women who profess to be Christians, but also is general advice and pointers for ladies of any belief and value system who are...
I admit I am offended some of the time. If it is not one stressful person or situation, then it is another that has me concerned. Although I may feel offended at any time, I do not want to develop a default state of being offended. There are odd and bad vibes I get from some people. Spiritual warfare is all around. Both family and friends are involved in the discord. There are times I...
This post is to give encouragement to make decisions that will not only be pleasing to God, but will make life less stressful and less complicated. I see the pain, I see the hurt. I have witnessed the heartache, stress and how hard life can be when consequences come for decisions made. I understand that not everybody is a follower of Jesus Christ. I speak based on my own belief in God and His ways....
The purpose of this post is to point out a harmful double standard inside and outside of the church. It happens outside of the church, but it is worse when it is happening in the house of the Lord. It is concerning that it is happening in some Christian households. Some parents have been protecting their own daughter (s) from toxic men. At the same time, some have not properly trained their own son (s)...
In this post, I won’t be discussing God-given, natural sexual desire that a husband and wife feel toward each other. Instead, I am referring to the spirit of lust. I’m referring to extreme, unnatural and insatiable sexual appetite. I’m speaking of perversion. If someone has this problem or if they know of these problems in a potential spouse, these are huge red flags. It is important to recognize that this is a major red flag before proceeding...
“Women just don’t want to submit!” Is this usually true? Or is it that they do not want to submit under someone else’s terms, but want things God’s way? What does submit even mean? In religious circles, it is commonly propagated by both men and women that women just don’t want their man to be a leader. Women are accused of not wanting to yield to their husband’s loving leadership. The word submit means to yield...
For people who are single and desire marriage, it is always important to remember that there are still decent people who would make an ideal spouse. Not everyone means you or me harm. I could never fairly and truthfully say that all men are no good. No one can ever truthfully or fairly say that all women are no good. It’s simply not true. Every individual must be selective.The key is to learn to recognize...
With Christmas and the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ recently celebrated by many, I want to talk about another righteous man who was near and dear to our Savior. Based on Biblical account, He was an excellent husband to his wife Mary, the mother of Jesus. When I read the story of Mary and Joseph, I am blessed and impressed! Joseph was indeed a true example of godly masculinity. I believe that Mary and...
In this post, I am going to talk about what most accurately defines a man. First of all, men and women are valuable, simply because they are created human beings. Both the male and female were created in the image of God (Genesis 5: 1-2). Regardless of the secular perspective, a man’s worth has nothing to do with his bank account, his assets, or his public reputation. In the eyes of society, a man’s corporate...
A secure husband does not interfere with his wife being who God created her to be. A secure wife also will not interfere with her husband in this way either. It is a common scenario that some women get married and their husbands suffer from some kind of insecurity when it comes to their career successes or spiritual giftings. Specifically, a godly husband will not hinder his wife’s God-given talents, gifts, and contributions. However, pride...
