Marital Commitment....

Being a woman from a close family it was a difficult task for me to learn the correct way to follow the word of God and cling to my husband without turning my back on my friends and family.  This has posed to difficult to many women and men as I've heard many immature statements such as; "don't put your woman before your boys" or "woman code of honor....friends will always be there".  But in all reality this is not biblical and I have over time had to change my stance.  I'm committed to not only my husband but also to God with my marriage in order to prosper. 


The word reads;  And unto the married I command (yet not I, but the Lord): let not the wife depart from her husband (1Corinthians 7:10).  Through this growth and knowledge I'm being sure to communicate with my husband openly and with love.  I will not allow another to separate me from him as it is a commitment I have made before God and witnesses that we are not just dating any longer but we have become as '1' and I will live as such.  I love me some Usamah Aliyy!!

I will always be available to my family and friends but they can not replace the bond between husband and a wife.

It is also important to me to pass along to my children the understanding that I'm also committed to my in-laws.  I've been blessed to have married into one of the best families and I love them as they love me.

Remember: commit to one another and not other.

The Mess of Forgiveness should be The Peace of Forgave

As I sit here and think on one of the hardest aspects of being human I stand in aww of the amazing God that we serve.   Imagine an existence that God deemed a lie could never be forgiven or a fallen child of the kingdom will never have the ability to redeem our hearts and return?   Are you thinking WOW, just as I did as this thought surfaced in my mind?   Well in this I had a new respect for the word forgiveness and the clarity of it being an action word just as love is.   Bet you never thought of that, huh??   Lol Sometime ago I dedicated myself to study the act of forgiveness and create a heart after God’s own heart.   I imagined myself in a place of transition: walking through an opened door in an ALL white garment with one leg that hadn’t stepped in yet with black pants and shoe on (that one leg).   I realized this spoke literally to the place I was in my life; wanting so badly to continue to live for God and grow in my spiritual walk y...

Stand without Wavering

As I sit at the computer and ponder on the upcoming transitions my life will be taking and attempting to mentally plan what I can; I immediately got a headache thinking of all I wish I could have done or what others reminded me I should have done.   In the mist of this planning I turned my speaker up on my desktop and what’s playing on Pandora, William Murphy’s Its Working.    See sometimes it is easy to know the word and even quote it but is it in your spirit?   I have been struggling with a variety of things lately causing me a great deal of stress and even minor health setbacks but today I am reminded that all things will work out for those that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose, I’m standing on his word.   In that I feel the tug at my spirit the words, “standing on his word”.   When we stand it means that we are not moving or wavering.   There is a great deal of faith required in order for us to stand without wav...

Growth is the Best Option

Have you ever experienced moments that prove your growth and it still startles you?   I have been having such moments rather often lately and I can only giggle at myself.   I have prayed often that God will elevate my maturity in him as well as in the world.   On many occasions we are hurt, experience conflict or even hurt others because of our lack of maturity spiritually as well as emotionally.   I remember reaching a period in my personal life a couple years ago that I made a choice to seek God, praying that my heart will be renewed and my mind will be more understanding in God.   That I would not have such emotional unrealistic responses to things that I did not like or made me uncomfortable especially with regards to my personal relationships.   I asked to be emotionally intimate with my husband so that we may communicate on a different level to help us both grow both together as a couple, as parents and as individuals.   For me to also be emoti...
