12-02-16 PRESS ON

Peradventure you have doubts in your heart as regards the faithfulness of your partner, its not time for you to start to misbehave or develop heart problem.

My dear, put your mind at rest and PRESS ON Faithfully. Ignore hearsays,  regrets or looking for a way of revenge.
Focus on God who orders the step of the righteous at all time.

Remember, God will not allow the ROD of the WICKED to fall on the LOT of the RIGHTEOUS, lest the RIGHTEOUS put forth their hands unto INIQUITY.

Before you know it, your faithfulness in OBEDIENCE, PURITY and HOLINESS to God and your partner will get a safe landing to your OWN destination of PEACE.

You will laugh again.

He cares, I care.

11-02-16 WHY GIVING UP?

Are you tired for exercising patience with the lady who doesn't love to combine marriage with education?

Are you frustrated that the man is still pursuing other projects aside your wedding plans?

Is the location of your partner hindering your settlement as couples?

Listen, don't give up on your partner. Press on. God makes all things beautiful in His TIME.

No one can give birth to your OWN child/children. There is enough space in the sky to accommodate the birds without their wings touching one another.

Encourage your partner into fulfilment. The reward of its outcome will be yours. Be patient and led by divine instructions not by the number of houses, cars, account balance and children your friends already possess.

10-02-16 KEEP YOUR LIFE

Welcome to another edition of Relationship Recipe. We will be dealing with some practical topics for the next few days in February.

Whosoever keeps his MOUTH keeps his LIFE.

Many loses the joy in relationship because they talk too much; they ensnare themselves with many unfulfilled promises in the name of LOVE.

Watch your words and promises whenever you are with your partner, do not allow circumstances to push you into making promises you won't be able to fulfil.

Watch what you discuss about your partner. Planned goals and achievements, still in the oven, which is meant to be between both of you till MATURITY, must not be the latest NEWS on your family table.

Your talkativeness can hinder the testimony of your partner.

Stop boasting around especially to your friends on your relationship matters(achievements).
Always Open your mouth with wisdom whenever you are talking about your partner.
And the fact that you have that special man or lady as your partner does not cast other people around you as being low to your standard.

09-02-2016 DELAYED 3

Gracefully, we will look into the remaining three points out of many reasons for delayed marriage.
So far, we've discussed four(4) reasons, which are:
Ignorance, Lack of Commitment, Discouragement, and Carelessness. (If you miss those recipes, send me a message or check our blog).

Pride: Inability to accept the views and opinion of others at different occasions, which may or may not be obvious, can lead to delayed marriage. Marriage is a journey of 'eternal' agreement between a matured man and woman. Whenever you find it difficult to comply to suggestions or to trust others, watch out my dear...

Selfish Desires/Motives: On this point, it will be a great idea to announce to you some selfish motives of marriage. Some wants marriage just to get children; some, to get a cook; some, to get a financier; some, to tie down their partner from other commitments and be their servant/maid, some, because of parental or family pressures and some, to get a bed-mate. If these desires mistakenly looped-out, their partner's may flee.

The last point on this note is Self will. It is so close to the point above but a bit different. Self Will can be likened to PERSONAL STANDARDS set out as a criterion for marriage, which no divine revelation or instruction can overrule because it has been made a rigid law at heart that must not be tampered with.

Until those standards are met, he/she may decide not to settle down in marriage.
For example, building a house, buying a car, after Ph.d programme, engaging with a career/rich person...

God bless you as you look into those few points.

08-02-16 DELAYED 2

We started examining the general causes of Marital delay yesterday. We considered Ignorance and Lack of Commitment.

Discouragement: As a result of disappointments of promises from previous relationships, some are discouraged and are not longer interested in marriage. They believed that everyone is the same.

Carelessness: Some started well, but along the line, they lost it on several occasions because they refused to pay due attention to the dare needs and necessities of their partner (not immoralities). For example, time, gifts, counsels, plans together and the likes.

Some have so much position themselves wrongly by their mode of dressing, body and mouth odour, choice of words, rigid beliefs and sentiments. It makes it difficult for the anyone to approach for marriage even at divine instruction.

We'll continue tomorrow by God's grace.

Thanks for following.

07-02-16 DELAYED

Have you ever thought of a subject called 'Marital Delay'?
At what age can you say someone is experiencing Marital Delay?

Generally, for ladies, age 30 and for men, age 35.
What are the things responsible for this delay?
They are many. We will only address some of them in this recipe.
ARE YOU EAGER TO KNOW THEM?

1) Ignorance: We have people who actually lack the knowledge of the importance and purpose of marriage; such people waste their early years to enjoy the pleasures of life believing that the issue of marriage is like a bridge they will cross when they get there, instead of preparing for it.
By the time they wake up to understand its importance, normal age would have passed and we term it as DELAY for them.

2) Lack of commitment: As we discussed in our former recipes, relationship/marriage deserves your total commitment and hard work. Some are too busy for such commitments in their early youthful years and by the time they are ready, normal marital age would have by-passed them.

We will continue tomorrow by God's grace.

06-02-16 CONTENTMENT

Godliness with Contentment is a Great Gain.

My friend, be satisfied with the partner the Lord has given you and stop comparing him/her your so-called 'OTHERS'.

Remember, you can't find gold on the surface.
All relationships brings out the BEST or the WORST in you.

Bring out the BEST in your partner, release yourself, sacrifice time for each other, pray and stop complaining.

Any uncommitted and rigid man/woman does not deserve a good relationship because it is real hard work.

Dig out the gold in your partner and if no compliance, pray. Stop complaining or nagging.
