1 + 1 = 1

"I really need to get back in school, but I cannot make up my mind in what field I would like to major in. I know who will have the answer ~ my Mom", the husband says. "Oh OK", the wife says. "I will be glad to help you." The husband responds, "Naw, I'll talk to my Mom about it." 

When we value Mom/Dad’s opinions over our wife’s than we devalue our wife; and again if we value Mom/Dad’s opinion over our husband’s than we devalue our husband.  Mom/Dad, best friend, girlfriend, etc. are not who you need to confide in for answers to decisions in your marriage ~ or your personal business.

How about existing burdens that was in place before he/she made the commitment to marry; such as child support, student loans, back taxes, credit card bills, etc. Nope, when you marry, again, you become one, and everything is the responsibility of the husband and wife. So if you feel you do not want to enter into a union that has baggage, then remember to do your homework first. If you truly love this person, then pull your sleeves up and get prepared to move mountains ~ together!


It’s not a deal breaker, it’s your attitude towards it. Don’t get married if you are not mature enough to understand we are not perfect and your spouse will not be perfect either; so focus on the good in them and you won’t notice the bad.

It’s not a game nor is it something we can get in and out of with ease - - - - like changing our clothes. We tell ourselves, “No I don’t like this one, so I’ll get rid of him/her and take the next best thing!” Not a good idea; and it shows your character. Some of us are not aware we have insecurities and some are; whatever the case, commit to something and the first thing to commit to is Jesus Christ. He loves us perfectly and when we seek Him daily for His love; then we are able to love our spouses the way He loves us. It’s a win-win situation.


Marriage is not a thing of the past. We need the husband and wife relationship back into our culture; and our children, who will become the leaders of this world, do too! 
But from the beginning of creation God made them male and female. For this reason a man shall leave [behind] his father and his mother and be joined to his wife and cleave closely to her permanently, And the two shall become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has united (joined together), let not man separate or divide. Mark 10:6-9 AMP

ALL Things Become NEW!

Every "New Year" brings new things, but we must transform our minds and hearts to let go of the old and embrace the new. Once a door is closed in the spirit, it cannot be opened, yet we hold on to the past that keeps our minds trapped to something that is debilitating rather than enlightening. Thoughts and words have power, and scripture tells us in Proverbs 18:21, "Death and Life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." It has been studied that words of encouragement brings confidence in a person, good mental health, they believe in themselves to do well in life, they have better physical health, are more resilient, have good coping methods, know they are loved,  and have a calm spirit. Negative words are harsh and cause anger in a person, stress, they lose confidence and self-worth, they give up and feel there is no hope for them in anything they do, and no one loves them; in addition they are prone to depression and a...

A Lost Service?

There are so many things lacking in our lives today and the only thing that is going to fill that void is serving Yahweh and serving others. Volunteering and serving others and Yahweh (which he called himself [a servant]) breaks that spirit of selfishness, self gratification, and self destruction.   Teens volunteering which builds character and great leaders  Scripture reads in Proverbs 16:27 Ethiopian Bible: 27  An ungodly man digs up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. Which translates a ungodly man looks for trouble and manipulates others to do unlawful    acts. Many have heard this verse as, “Idle hands is the devil’s workshop.” Hands represent honest work in the Bible, or doing what is right in the eyes of Yahweh and man. The Bible also speaks of unclean hands that do bad things or are works of the devil. If you are sitting around in your feelings, get out and volunteer, help someone, serve at a food pantry, start a neighborhood garden; someth...

Let the "Light" Shine

Early Parchment of The Constitution Early American Settlers We are dealing with devils in the leadership in America and here’s the hypocrisy of it all, ALL of them that has been in office from the beginning of America’s birth, have overlooked lynching, starvation, terrorism of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK), lying, hate, sexual impurity, killing defenseless woman and children, just deep oppression - and want to say America was founded on Biblical foundations. Now whose Bible or whose Yahweh is this that promotes violence, evil, hate, and injustice? Yahweh gave Moses laws, instructions and promises to give to the people to live by and many call it the Ten Commandments, which Yahweh gave Moses hundreds of laws and there is no place, I have read, that this is the ten commandments.  What I read is that Yahweh gave them unto the people so that they will not sin and fear Him and obey His Commandments with favor, which is life, in the land. But this is just the beginning of the laws Yahweh gave ...
