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.
Wedding is a ceremony, and marriage is a ministry. These two are very different things. Wedding is a one-day deal and after that, it is gone, done, finished, “finito”! Whereas marriage, it is a lifetime commitment.
Here in America, “50 billion dollars a year is spent only for wedding ceremonies. One million copies of bridal magazines are sold each month” (from “Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts” – by Parrott and Parrott).
Regardless of people spending billions of dollars on their weddings, one out of two marriages are still ending in divorce.
