Marriage Ain't No Joke -

Hey Married Couples : )

I was just thinking about marriage this morning. My thoughts lead me to the fact that marriage ain't no joke! It's like a roller coaster {ups, downs and loopdi loops}.

My hubby and I have been on this wonderful roller coaster ride for (27) years now.

Let me tell you all, I love my sweet hubby dearly and I know he loves me just as much. Now with that being said, it's still been a bumpy ride (let alone the fact that I hate roller coasters...LOL), yet in the same breathe I'd like to say that I would not just throw in the towel and give up on my wonderful and handsome man that God has for me.

The Bible says;“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.” Ephesians 5:22

I know it gets hard sometimes, but I also know that I must choose to do what is right. And if God said it, then IT'S RIGHT no if, ands or buts about it!!!

On the other side of the coin the Bible says; “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it” Ephesians 5:25

Whether or not my hubby chooses to obey God's Word (is on him. He will have his judgement day, as will I). Regardless of his reactions, I will still be obedient to God no matter what!!!

Because God did not say, hey Lady Bee if your husband does not obey My Word or you get sick and tired of his mess, then you can curse him out, pack his stuff and kick him to the curb. (Hint, hint my beautiful Sisters). And my dear Brothers, reverse this scenario because the SAME thing goes for you too.

Fellas, remember God also said, “Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will cling to his wife: and they will be one flesh.” Genesis 2:24

So, that means...MAN UP!!! Stop standing behind your Mama's skirt. She cannot be of ONE FLESH with you like God said, that would be only your WIFE...re-read Genesis 2:24 until you get it in your spirit, hide it in your heart and also remember, if God said it, then IT'S RIGHT no if, ands or buts about it!!!

This is not about "Burger King" so you can have it your way, sorry that's the wrong King. (Another hint for my sweet sisters, this goes for us too precious Queens).

Sweet Peeps, lets work harder to get it right. Do not be defeated by giving up and giving in to satan who would just love to come into our homes to cause separation, division and DESTROY the very foundation that God has meant for good. Do not let the enemy KILL the love and compassion for one another that God has so richly implanted within us.

Tell your Handsome Hubby or your Beautiful Wife, that as of today you are going to love them unconditionally as God loves us!!!

STAND UP STAY STRONG SPEAK LIFE SEEK GOD IN PRAYER

Who's The Boss?

1 Corinthians 7:3-4 (New King James Version)
Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.


Isn't this a powerful verse? I think the most beautiful part about living like this is the fact that it promotes value, selflessness, kindness, accountability and consideration.

I remember when my husband and I changed our eating habits. The main reason for the change...we wanted to be healthy, live our best years together and look our best for one another. So when I see my husband consuming too many cookies or he sees me eating something that's not good for me in mass quantity we lovingly say something. We all know this verse is referring to intimacy, but I encourage you to not limit the application of this principle to just intimacy. We are "One Flesh" and as we yield more and more to one another and God's Spirit we help each other in ways that bring blessing and longevity to our marriages. (-:

Qualities of A Queen

Good Evening Marvelous Married Ones! We pray that you are having an outstanding day with your sweetie!
As I have been prayerfully studying I have taken notice of a women that most of my life I had never heard about. Oh I heard people carrying her name but I didn't really pay attention to her until last week. She is a blessing to all of us who seek to be all that God wants us to be as wives. So who am I talking about? I'm talking about Abigail.

In I Samuel chapter 25 we have the story told to us about a rich man named Nabal, David and Abigail. Long story short David and his men are hungry so David sends his servants to Nabal to ask for some food. Nabal very disrespectfully tells David's servants..who is David? Ooops wrong way to respond Nabal. David rallies up his men and is on his way to kill Nabal and everybody in his house. Abigail finds out about it and she gets up, gets some food together, saddles up the donkeys, grabs her servants, and goes to David in hopes of turning his wrath away from her house. She meets David falls on her face before him and she bows down to him. Now that's deep all by itself. Then she talks to David with intelligence, humility, calmness, and divine wisdom. She apologizes for her husbands bad behavior and David clearly impressed by this sister responds favorably to her and agrees with what she has said. WOW!! Please read the story for yourself, as Abigail is NO JOKE! She's on point like icicles! In the end Nabal dies after Abigail tell him all that she did and said to David...the Bible says his heart died within him. I don't know what that was all about, but that's tore up! After David hears about Nabals death he proposes to Abigail and she accepts.

In my Bible John Maxwell comments on her qualities. He writes, Abigail's patience and submission during difficult times, as well as her wisdom and problem solving skills prepared her too be an excellent wife for David. David valued Abigails strength and felt greatly attracted to this highly capable female leader. Can I tell you that as women we lead all the time in many areas, whether we believe it or know it. We also have great influence and with that truly comes great responsibility. Stop and think how you use it in your marriage. Are you calm, humble, and submissive? Do you listen to God's Spirit first before you respond? Are you a good problem solver? Do you like to resolve issues? We are queens and we have been blessed with kings, lets serve them and help them with even more excellence in the areas of humility,submission and godly wisdom.
