It's been a while since I've sat down to write anything, let alone blog. I think I went through a season where I couldn't really outwardly or verbally express what I was thinking or feeling so I didn't write and definitely didn't say a whole lot. But that ends here and now. My Pastor challenged us not to return to a place called The Revolution Mark 16:20 and I accept that challenge. Part of my purpose in creating this blog was to do just what Mark 16:20 says, so everywhere and preach. So I've been neglecting my duties. Now that I've gotten some things back in order it's time to move forward.
I can't promise that this blog is going to be like my others but it will be truthful and relevant.
1. Men, just because you see an attractive woman, that does not give you license to make sexual comments about her anatomy or declare publicly what you would like to do to her.
2. Women, stop advertising like hookers in the window on Bourbon street. Your body is not meant to be on display and ogled by men. Stop walking around like you got it for cheap.
3. Women and Men.. demand some respect by carrying yourself in a respectable manner. What happened to the gentlemen and the true ladies?
4. Chivalry is not dead! Contrary to popular belief, it is still appropriate to open the door for a lady, to pull out her chair, to stand when she arrives or leaves the table, to hold her hand and help her up or down the stairs and to help her carry things
5. Women, let the men be men and show you some respect and chivalry. There's nothing wrong with a man if he's not immediately trying to jump in bed with you. Stop being stubborn and trying to do everything yourself or prove you're an "independent woman", well guess what, nobody's independence was ever won solo... it was always a group effort.
6. Men and Women teach your children to carry themselves in a respectable manner and treat the opposite sex with respect. BE THE EXAMPLE BY MODELING IT IN FRONT OF THEM. Break this cycle of disrespectful, lust driven, pseudo "love" people think they're falling in.
7. Be honest about where you are and what you want up front. If you know you're not looking for a serious relationship, then don't pretend like you are just to get the drawls/panties. Save everybody some time and energy by simply telling telling the truth. STOP LYING ABOUT STUPID STUFF.
8. CELIBACY IS NOT A CHALLENGE TO SEE IF YOU CAN GET IT. Respect the other person's choice and keep it moving if you can't stand in agreement and walk it out as well.
9. Stop saying what you think the other person wants to hear just to make a good impression. if you can't make a good impression just by being yourself, maybe you need to take some time to go work on you.
10. if you have low self-esteem. GET THAT TOGETHER BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT DATING OR A RELATIONSHIP. You will get bamboozled by somebody with good game and end up disappointed because they tell u everything that strokes your ego. Ladies and Gentleman discover who you are and what you have to offer before you try to offer it. IJS...
11. Love is not something you fall in. It's a choice, it's an action word and it's a commitment. 1Corinthians 3:4-7 ASV Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things
It's hard enough as it is to find a Godly mate, but people are continuously making it harder by lowering their standards, not having any morals, self-respect or decorum. It's time that we all do better. Each of us has to examine what affect our behavior towards the opposite sex has on the overall attitude of the matter and what messages we are sending to our children. The older are supposed to teach the younger, and the parents are supposed to be training up the children. How can this happen if the parents and the older are behaving more unseemly than the youth and the children??

But speak you
the things which become sound doctrine: That
the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in
patience.
The aged women
likewise, that they be in behavior as becomes holiness, not false accusers, not
given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to
be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at
home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not
blasphemed.
Young men
likewise exhort to be sober minded. In
all things showing yourself a pattern of good works: in doctrine showing
soundness, gravity, sincerity, Sound
speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be
ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.
Exhort servants
to be obedient to their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not
answering again; Not purloining,
but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our
Savior in all things.
For the grace
of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness
and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this
present world; Looking for that
blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus
Christ; Who gave himself for us,
that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar
people, zealous of good works.
These things
speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise you.
Recently I've had a series of very interesting conversations about dating and relationships with my friends and family. Between what was discussed and what has happened over the past few weeks I just need to get a few things off my chest. So if you get offended I'M NOT SORRY FOR TELLING THE TRUTH. GET YOUR HEART RIGHT AND GET BACK ON POST.
