Marriage between one man and one woman is the story of God, not the story of man. It is very easy for us to forget this especially when we find ourselves in a marriage, in the middle of a conflict. Continue reading Divorce? Why?

Meaning of “Tough Love”
A4P Guest: I’m a mother of three little kids (8, 6 and 5 years old). I’ve been married with my husband for the last 10 years. To make a long story short, I’m in hell. I’m crying right now. It is hard for me to write the condition I’m in. My husband doesn’t help me around the house. He doesn’t care about the kids. I do everything by myself. Continue reading Meaning of “Tough Love”
Wife’s submission to her husband
I agree that some people don’t like the word “submission,” especially when it is combined with, “to her husband.” Continue reading Wife’s submission to her husband
Wait!
If you are a single man reading this, let me give you one short advice:
First understand what Genesis 2:23 is saying before you decide to get married. Until you do that, WAIT!
Heads Up To All Married Couples
This season is not the season to file a divorce!
You may ask, “Then what is a good season to file a divorce?”
There is no right or good season to file a divorce because divorce does not solve anything.
What I am trying to say is this: Usually right after summer season, most people get very emotional and get totally depressed. Because of that, those minor marital issues they thought were okay to ignore all of a sudden become so huge for them during this time that they want to file a divorce.
Marriage Is God’s Agenda
A4P Guest: I got married a couple years ago. My husband and I are Christians. My husband is a nice man and everything. I was in love with him but these days, I don’t feel any attraction towards him and it is bothering me. I don’t like to come home from work so I won’t be alone with him. Would you please help me?
A4P: Were you in love with him when you married him?
A4P Guest: Yes, I was. Continue reading Marriage Is God’s Agenda
“I am not mean”
The most life threatening environment for a man to live in is a house where the presence of a mean-spirited wife is felt everywhere.
First, he fights to win; then he quickly understands that he has little or zero chance to win. So, he totally withdraws (tends to watch soccer or football a lot or becomes a politician and/or a philosopher). Then he checks himself out from his kids’ life and at last he desires only one thing, to die. Continue reading “I am not mean”
A LIFESAVER
“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
A suitable helper or “a helpmate” in the Hebrew word is Ezer Kenegdo and guess what that translates in to: A LIFESAVER.
No wonder divorced men die quicker than the men who stayed in their marriages. Remarriage doesn’t change the life expectancy of a divorced man. The only thing that is better for a man to do in this life is, first, to find a woman to marry, and second, decide to live with her until he dies.
Adam Knew His Wife
They say, “Men love sex and that is where it starts and ends for them.”
I know, I once thought that too. Some researchers didn’t want to waste their time either when they agree with that and say it is “self-explanatory” as if that was the definition of being a man.
So, since his puberty, a man is beaten up with a message such as this one: “You are here on this planet for one thing only: To have sex. All you need in life is sex. If you don’t get that, you are going to be less of a man. So, do whatever you can to keep your manhood.” Continue reading Adam Knew His Wife
A Wife Prays
Thank You, LORD, for giving me another day to come to You in prayer. May Your Name be blessed forever!
I have received many good and perfect gifts from You, LORD. LORD Jesus, You died for me; so I might live for You. You became sin for me so I might be God’s righteousness. Thank You, LORD Jesus!
I also thank You for giving me a husband, with whom I am becoming one. I don’t deserve to have him as a husband but You gave him to me anyways. So, thank You.
