Sunday Encouragement

I pray this encourages everyone going through tough times: All trials have an expiration date. Until situations change, we should stay at the feet of Jesus. 

All Your Friends Aren't My Friends

I stand on this. I can't vibe with anyone if I don't rock with the people in their life. I don't know how other people do it, but I'm not built to be fake. Me & another person can be cool, but if I don't like the people they vibe with, it would be difficult for us to be cool. I'm not telling my friend(s) who they can rock with, but they shouldn't expect me to get to know them or get along with them if I don't like them. It's too much fakeness going on for me to get trapped in that. I'm real enough to stand on what I say.

Parkland Massacre

Congratulations Florida, you played yourself.🤦🏾17 people shot & killed, 17 wounded and all this scumbag shooter gets is a life sentence with no parole?🤦🏾Those jurors are idiots. The blood of the fallen is on their hands because THEY let the shooter walk. I feel for the victims’ families because they didn’t get justice for their dead loved ones. Silent moment for the fallen in the Parkland Massacre, and a longer moment of silence for how stupid those jurors are for letting the shooter walk free.

Question Of The Day: Marriage vs. Kids

How is marriage a big commitment but having kids together isn’t?🤔 

My answer: Marriage has more at stake than just having kids out of wedlock. In marriage, two people are coming together to build a legacy. Both man & woman must be on the same page, or the marriage won’t last. If a man & woman have kids out of wedlock, there’s no expectation to stay together. If the man can’t stand the woman (vice versa), he can go about his business & co-parent. There are couples who have kids out of wedlock & marry later; how often does that happen?🤔It’s the old school in me, but I’d rather marry before having kids because at least…she has shown herself worthy of being my wife & my child(ren)’s mother.

Atheists Know The Bible

 It’s interesting that many atheists know the Bible better than most Christians. Atheists dig deep into the Word, whereas many Christians settle for the surface teaching. I think a lot of Christians settle for surface teaching because they’re scared of the loopholes they may find if they dig deep into the Bible. 

Relationships: Power Dynamic

Is there such thing as a 50/50 relationship? I say no...

The power dynamic is never equal, nor should it be. Someone has to take the lead. If not, the relationship will be without direction which is why most relationships fail.

Note: I’ve never been cool with this 50/50 thing. I prefer 100/100, where both give their all to make the relationship work.
