Woman Down

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee (Deuteronomy 31:6).

Sometimes life tends to knock us down, or sometimes we fall due to the unfortunate choices we make in life. But all is not lost. Use these uneventful moments to take hold of Jesus' hand to pull you up. Allow God the opportunity to use your tribulations to push you forward in life and give you beauty for ashes. Although the world teaches you to be strong and courageous in your confidence, Jesus wants you to do just the opposite – be strong and courageous in Him. Acknowledge your weaknesses: sex, drugs, food, depression, or any addiction that has a strong hold over your life. Ask Jesus for His help. Tell Him that you need Him and you don't know any other way to get through life. Then get up with confidence in Him, knowing that He loves you beyond measure and that He'll guide your every step into glory.

Remember ladies; life will become unbearable at times, but just know that God promised never to leave or forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). You can trust Jesus with your entire life.

XOXO,




Jay

So You’re Getting Married…Does Physical Appearance Really Matter?

Behold, thou art fair, my love...thou hast doves’ eyes within thy locks... (Song of Solomon 4:1 in reference to the Shulamite Woman). His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold... (Song of Solomon 5:15 in reference to Solomon)

Of course, we're going to put on our best face and outfit when wooing our significant other. However, when we're well into the relationship, we tend to let our physical appearances go. We say to ourselves, "I got him now, he's not going anywhere." Besides, if you have the best man in the world and you're head over heels in love, why would you not want to look your very best for him? On the other hand, he may be thinking the same thing, “I got her on lockdown now,” so he decides to let his gym pass go. While looks may not be everything, they are an intricate part of the relationship. Physical attraction is a crucial component to physical intimacy. Here are a few questions to ponder over during date night to see if your potential spouse takes pride in how he looks or if he's just trying to lock you in before he lets it out (his stomach, lol):

·        How important is it that you always look your best?
·        How important is it to you that your spouse looks her best?
·        Do you frequently undergo cosmetic procedures such as waxes or pedicures?
·        How would you respond if your spouse gained a significant amount of weight?
·        Are you concerned about your physical appearance as you age?
·        What would your response be if your spouse lost a leg or another limb?
·        Has physical appearance ever been a factor in a break-up?


Remember ladies; your man may love you unconditionally, but what it took to get him is going to be what it takes to keep him.

XOXO,


Jay
