In keeping with my theme of godly femininity and impacting others righteously, in this post, I am calling out something about certain (not all) black women. This is because what is right is right, and what is wrong is wrong, regardless of anything else. It doesn’t matter if we are the same gender or if we have similar skin tones. I don’t take sides, based on superficial traits. I want to do what is right...
Many women are quite unhappy. I hope for and pray for peace and joy in the lives of others. Like anyone else, I have moods that fluctuate. For every problem there is a solution. Peace and joy come to me when I focus on God as my source. It is an ongoing reality that I need to focus on God in all of my circumstances, in order to have peace. There are many reasons for...
I have experienced and observed the fact that many girls grow up with critically low self-esteem due to various circumstances. Some of the circumstances take place within their homes. For example, some girls have been treated as less than by family members for being female, they have generally been restricted a lot more from various activities and held to higher standards than their brothers. In particular, this happens in some religious households. As time goes...
I sympathize with women because of the many difficulties plenty have in their relationships. I cannot identify with witnessing physical abuse between my parents. I cannot identify with girls who have grown up watching their mothers bringing different men in and out of the house or those who have a father that cheated on their mother. Seeing dysfunction in the home as a girl can normalize it for some. Some girls witness all kinds of...
No one is ready made. When someone meets the right person, that person will be flawed just like anybody else. They won’t be perfect, but are the perfect person for the one they are suited for. Healthy relationships consist of imperfect, compatible people who happen to love and respect each other. Typically, they will be attracted to each other and have a significant amount of things in common. Shared faith / core values are very...
Quality of life is affected by all the decisions one makes, whether the decisions are in matters great or small. Though imperfect, a woman of integrity will prioritize doing what is right. The prudent woman will avoid many pitfalls as she navigates through life. In this post is a list of wrong things that some women do. The list is good for me to remember for myself, even. These behaviors should be avoided by all...
Hello friends! In this post are a few friendly reminders about staying safe today and at all times. We live in increasingly dangerous times. Precautions, along with prayer are more necessary than ever. People are being victimized in all sorts of predicaments. Road rage is a growing problem. In many areas, gun violence is increasing. Ladies are being stalked, harassed, groped, randomly attacked, and sometimes snatched right off the streets, even in broad daylight. Some...
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...
Hearing wedding bells? It is a no-brainer, right? How can you marry someone you don’t trust? The truth is, some women seem to come under some kind of spell when in love with their men. They are not able to think clearly. In these situations, a woman may take a big gamble. Sometimes, she enters into a situation or marriage that she actually knows better than to enter into. Sometimes, a woman becomes careless and...
By now, it is probably evident that I am not a fan of seeing all the problems many women go through. In particular, I hate to see what many go through in their relationships and marriages. The woman of God must be armed with God’s truth at all times. This is applicable before and during marriage. We are always dealing with seed being sown, whether spiritually or in the natural. Words are seed. Our mind...
