Myths About Love and Relationships

The following announcements have been brought to you by Valentine’s Day:


Love doesn’t cost a thing (myth) – In love there are sacrifices that will cost you convenience. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son (John 3:16)

You can’t help who you love (myth) – If this was so, then Jesus would not instruct us to love our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:39).

A relationship is 50/50 (myth) – Love is unconditional and does not keep score (Matthew 5:46).

If you love me, then you will... (m) – Love is non-threatening, nor does it require you to do something that’s unbecoming (1 Corinthians 13:5).

Love hurts sometimes (myth) – Love builds up; it does not tear down (1 Corinthians 8:1b).

Love does not pay the bills (myth) – Love will encourage you to provide for your family (1 Timothy 5:8).


XOXO,

Damsel in Distress

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:19).

This morning’s announcement is inspired by Canton Jones’ song, “Won’t He Do It.” I woke up this morning with the verses, “Won’t He do it...You [Jesus] will make a way out of no way,” in my head. So I have been singing this song all day, and the timing couldn’t be more perfect. We all have those days or moments in life, where some days are more trying than others. So if you're going through, then this inspiration is for you.
If you’re in the middle of a situation – whether it is a tumultuous relationship, depleted finances, or a stressful job and you do not see a way out or the light at the end of the tunnel, do not fret. For the Lord is with you. He’s going to make a way out of no way. I know this because He has a track record of making the impossible, possible. How quickly we forget when we are deep in distress.
Remember ladies; sometimes Jesus will allow us to succumb to, what seems like impossible situations, just to remind us that He’s God and He’s the Way Maker. He does this to strengthen our faith in Him. Just know, God’s got you, have a blessed week!

XOXO,



Jay
