When a husband receives respect from his wife, he finds it very easy to love his wife. In the same way, when a wife receives unconditional love from her husband, respecting and honoring her husband becomes her second nature.
But, for this biblical love-respect principle to work in a marriage, somebody has to “prime the pump” first.
Who? A husband or a wife?
One of them who is spiritually more matured and the one who loves Christ more will do. ///
After Adam lost one of his “ribs”, he became aware of this strange desire he had never experienced before. God knew and prepared beforehand what Adam would want to have immediately after he woke up from his “deep sleep”.
Adam didn’t say something to God like, “I think something is happening to me. I have this strange desire.”
No, Adam didn’t say that. God already met Adam’s desire the moment Adam woke up. Talk about “care-free life,” this is unmatched and unparalleled! Adam didn’t have to go through puberty or anything. Boom! Problem solved right there when he opened his eyes! I’m very jealous of him! Anyways, let me not get off track here. Continue reading Desirable Because She was Found from Him→
If you live in North America, don’t forget to set your watch/clock one hour forward.
No, it is not exciting at all to lose one hour! But hey, there is nothing we can do about it except accepting the fact and trying to get used to it. But the good thing is, we will soon get it back.
So, I personally choose to fix my eyes on getting it all back soon, not on losing it now.
Whether we accept it as truth or not, “it is a law of life that we get what we go after.”
This truth is actually biblical. Knock, it shall be opened; seek, you shall find (Matthew 7).
So, the question is not whether or not the door will be opened and we find what we are seeking for, rather it is whether the door we are knocking on and the thing we are going after will lead us to life or not. ///
Divorce may loom on the horizon if the following four ways of dealing with conflicts mark your marriage:
Silent treatment – ignoring each other for days, months and even years
Exchanging disrespectful words – calling names
Gossiping about each other to others, especially to family members
Sleeping on a separate bed (bedrooms)
When conflict erupts in your marriage, sit around the table and discuss the issue like adults. If you can’t do that, invite someone else to come in between; and it would be great if that someone is not related to you or your spouse and that you both feel comfortable to talk to. ///
They “WAITED” to have sex until marriage and they wrote a book called, “WAIT.”
Well, two of my good Facebook friends have dropped me this couple’s interview in my inbox on different days and I decided to share one of their interviews with you all today. (Thank you my friends!)
Pastor Franklin, he was 22 years old when he decided to wait for marriage and he stayed away from sex for ten or eleven years. But before that, he was sexually active and he was in porn too (you can find that on the interview they gave to Fox News 5). Continue reading Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin→
A4P Guest: “Can a man be so modern, advanced, educated, sophisticated and spiritually matured that he stops looking at a woman?”
A4P: NOT A CHANCE! A MAN CANNOT STOP looking at a woman even if he wants. Asking a man never to look at a woman is like asking him NEVER to be a man. But, don’t miss this; it is right to demand from a man to make a covenant with his eyes never to lustfully look at a woman. (Job 31:1)
This is a biblically right demand because God equipped him with a brand new nature that has ability to say no to sin. (2 Corinthians 5:17; Titus 2:11-12) ///
If he is older than 28 years old, believe me in this, many girls might have already asked him that same question. So, wow him by being different from most girls and ask him something like, “So, how did your day go by so far today?” and give him your listening ears.
