Love & Infatuation
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, actually tomorrow, so I think it’s appropriate to talk about love, don’t you? I think so!
One day, one of my sons said to me, “Mom, I love this girl, and unless I marry her, I won’t be happy for the rest of my life, and I know this for sure.”
Guess what grade he was in?
Second grade!
He Cheated On Me
A4P Guest: How do I forgive my husband?
A4P: What did he do?

For Your Own Sake
The Bible says, “The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”” Genesis 2:18
The other meaning to the word “suitable” is “a lifesaver.”
And this “lifesaver” partner was found from the man’s body:
“So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh.” Genesis 2:21
“That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24
“She Should Know Better”
“Hi Berhan, I was just calling to say hi and to wish you a happy Easter!”
This was a message I found in my answering machine right after I celebrated my first year wedding anniversary.
My first reaction was, “Who is this woman that is wishing my husband a happy Easter, ignoring the fact that I’m his wife?”

Touch Your Wife’s Heart Before
Don’t you sometimes, secretly, wish if the Book of Ephesians chapter 5 goes up to verse 34 and says something like:
“Husbands, when your wives come to you with a problem, don’t try to SOLVE your wives’ problem unless they specifically ask you to solve it. Just LISTEN to their heart.” Continue reading Touch Your Wife’s Heart Before
