A note to the ladies...


From Boaz Ministries:  https://www.facebook.com/theboazministries



He's your man, faults and all. And yes, sometimes he frustrates you to no end. But your best girlfriend doesn't need to know your innermost concerns about him. Consider this: your girl cares about you, and if you're trashing your husband, she is on your side (most often) and not only joins you in your anger, she now knows your details. Same goes for your mama! This is not only disrespectful to your union, it's embarrassing - especially since people tend to remember the bad things.

I.don't.care.how.tight.you.are.with.your.girlfriend! You've put the negatives out there, and nine times out of ten, you and hubby will kiss and make up. However, now there is someone outside your marriage who has formed opinions (because they can't help it) based on how you felt at one moment in time. A serious no no, my sistas. Trust me.

When you feel you are about to explode because the situation is hard to bear, breathe deeply, slow your pace and get into a quiet place/space mentally and physically. Go into your prayer closet and pray for strength, understanding and wisdom. Tell the Lord all about it. And He will direct you. Pray for your husband, for the words to speak to him - and the Lord will not only give you what to say, but how and when. Let us learn how to seek the Lord first in handling all our concerns. Remember, He loves us more than our friends and family, and He won't throw our business back in our faces. He is the God of reconciliation and restoration, so we never have to worry about His motives when we've sought His advice.

It's never good to talk bad about your man. If you do that too often, people begin to wonder what's wrong with YOU!

Let's love one another - fiercely!
