I believe it is a blessing to have social media today to help us stay connected with our friends and families and to meet new people; however to meet a person online and decide to marry him/her online? Uhhh? It is kind of tricky! The virtual world and the real world are two completely different things and we need to know that. ///
We Live by Faith
Did I ever say, “Save sex and all the kissing and touching business for marriage?”
Oops, I did say that multiple times. But, hey, it won’t hurt if I say it again and again.
After all, unless we hear something again and again, we don’t believe it because faith comes by hearing. And we live by faith; means our lifestyle reflects what we truly accept and believe.
So, it is always excellent to give our ears to something we want to believe and live for. ///
Hug Tight those – – –
I always kiss and hug my kids in the morning. They all know this morning tradition and go with the flow even if they sometimes don’t appreciate it that much. Don’t blame them. Two of them are not morning people. But they know that they have no choice but to kiss and hug their mama in the morning. Continue reading Hug Tight those – – –
Save Your Marriage from the Trap of Social Media
Thousands and thousands of people are losing their marriages because of social media, mainly Facebook. If we are social media users, our marriages can’t be immune from this problem either. So, when we use social media, we need to be cautious and vigilant all the time.

Want to do Dating Right
Many young people are dropping me their questions saying, “We got it! We now understand that all those mini-sex acts (kissing, touching, cuddling, petting and all) are not good for us before marriage. They push us to do what we vowed not to do; which is sex before marriage. The problem is, we’ve been practicing mini-sex acts since day one that it seemed impossible for us to stop now. We keep falling short of our promises we made to one another. What should we do?” Continue reading Want to do Dating Right
Extra Marital Relationship on Facebook
“The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.” Proverbs 22:3
WHAT ARE YOU SOWING?
Sometimes in the middle of counseling, I ask this question, “So, who do you want to be in the next 10 years or so?”
The response I always get is something like, “I want to be a person who loves and serves God and others with everything I am and with everything I have.”
So, my follow-up question is, “So, what are you doing today to get there then?”
Why am I asking that? Well, for all the counseling sessions to be effective and fruitful, the person I am counseling primarily needs to know that there is what is called “the law of sowing and reaping.” Knowing this fact will help the person change his/her course or direction of life for good!
Is Modesty Optional for women?
In my yesterday’s post, “I made a covenant with my eyes,” I see that one particular paragraph seemed to throw some people off.
If I’m not mistaken, “If a woman chooses to go half or fully naked” seems to be the one which created some confusion, or I will say, misunderstanding, to what I was trying to communicate. So, I want to clarify that today.
Well, my intention when I wrote yesterday’s post was to shine the light on the main source of sexual immorality which is a lustful heart. While I did that, I concurrently wanted to address one common excuse I usually hear from some men: “I would control my eyes if the women wear appropriately.” Continue reading Is Modesty Optional for women?
I made a covenant with my eyes
“I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman.” (Job 31:1)
How can a young man resist the urge to look and lust after a cute girl? He can’t; but the spirit in him can enable him.
Most husbands struggle to say – – –
Most husbands struggle to say – – –
– – – “I’m sorry.”
Why? Well, one reason is that they don’t see their fault as clearly as their wives see it. So, acknowledging their faults by saying “I’m sorry” when in fact they believe they didn’t do anything wrong would be the most unreasonable and absurd thing for them to do. So, they refuse to say it.
The other simple reason is, they just don’t want to say “I’m sorry” because they are not accustomed to saying that simple statement before they got married. Continue reading Most husbands struggle to say – – –
