As women, we can be tempted to believe we can fix men. But that’s God’s job. How can a man love you when he cannot receive love from heavenly Father God? How can anyone give love when they have not received love? You cannot give away what you don’t have. This goes for men and women. There is something in some women that causes them to idolize men and pretty much use God as a...
One of the best traits anyone can have?…drumroll… This is emotional intelligence because it is needed across the board. A lot of problems stem from lack of emotional intelligence. Problems stem from lack of integrity in general. But some people do not have emotional intelligence to help them cope with and manage issues in life. According to Merriam Webster dictionary, this is emotional intelligence: ” the ability to recognize, understand, and deal skillfully with one’s...
Globally, lots of women seem to believe that it’s more important what men have than who they are. This way of thinking has driven many women to make very poor and dangerous relationship decisions. Some women focus on men’s titles, positions and statuses mostly. This focus is understandable to an extent. Everyone knows that men are to provide. Part of provision means material provision. It means earning money in order to earn one’s keep to...
I stopped fantasizing about love, relationships and marriage in my twenties and developed a more realistic approach. The reason for this is because God helped me better see HIS purpose in me and in marriage. Marriage has nothing to do with the fairy tales and romance novels that often drive girls and women into relentless pursuits of romantic love with (often the wrong) men. I realize God wanted my attention, my reverence, my worship in...
Is it possible that men and women can get out of the natural order in relationships? People are free to do as they please, obviously. But the purpose of this post, like the purpose of my other posts, is to present life situations based on God’s word and His design. Yes, the woman’s job is to reciprocate, to respond to a man’s initiative when it comes to relationships. It is a God-given dynamic. Even in...
Hi friends! I decided to write this post because I see it being weaponized against women that that there is a window of time for women to have children. There are insinuations that women decline in worth and value once past their “fertile” years before age 30. Especially, some “conservative” religious men are harsh and cruel, calling women who are childless and single “bitter cat ladies.” I wrote this post to encourage every single woman...
It’s a dangerous world. There are dangerous people. If you are afraid of someone, should you stay away from them? The answer sounds obvious. Yes! Yet, sometimes it’s not so simple. I have been in situations in my past where men made me nervous, gave me dangerous vibes right from the get-go and I proceeded with them anyway. I never let it get very far because I am a very cautious person and as it...
Especially, refuse to be a forever girlfriend if you want to be married. Have you ever met women who desire to get married but remain men’s girlfriends chronically, because their boyfriends won’t marry them? How about women who truly desired marriage but changed their stances on it when their men said, “Marriage is just a piece of paper?” Ever met a lady who was willing to play house and give husband benefits outside of marriage...
These are reasons why one should maintain proper standards and reasonable expectations. There is a heavy price to pay to settle for less in love, relationships and life. • Destruction of mental, physical, spiritual and all-around well-being. • The chance of being his beard: he is on the downlow; is sexually involved with men secretly. But his lady is his cover so that he can appear to be conventional. • Possibly having children with him...
In this post, I’m going to talk about religious “conversion” that takes place when someone changes or attempts to change their religious belief system in order to date or marry someone else. In fact, some of you wonderful readers may be going through something like this-you are interested in someone, but your values don’t align when it comes to your faith in God. The person you are seeing may have already indicated they are interested...
