Over the course of raising my children, I learned the importance of letting the children see that it is alright to show affection from a Husband to his wife. When I was growing up, I never seen my parents kiss. When I kissed my soon to be husband good-night, my mother just about died. It was at this time, I thought back over the years of growing up and realized that not once did I see my mother or father kiss each other. Maybe that is why I thought it was so special when I seen a couple that was almost thirty years older that my husband and I was, still kissing and showing they we in love. I truly wondered if it would be possible for my husband and I to still be that much in love when we grew older.
The truth is every husband and wife should be in-love enough to show this love in front of their children and/or others. There is nothing wrong with Married Friends and Lovers---They have a right to that romance and Heaven does hold its blessings on this Holy Unity. A man named Steve Chapman and his wife Annie, wrote and sang that song at one of their Christian Concerts. When they sang that song, everyone could see the love that was felt between the two of them.
With the world, along with the ways of the world, with people of the same sex or even multiple partners, our children are going to be confused. We need to show our children that love can and will flow between a man and a woman. If Christian Parents do not start showing love towards each other and happiness, their children will be come prey for Satan.
When we turn on T.V. and see a man with another man, no longer is it a man with another woman and not married. Things have gone crazy and full of sin. Satan knows how to ruin marriages and our children. It is sex related, most always.
There is nothing wrong with a Husband holding his wifes hand or for that matter giving her a kiss. We have to come to terms that love in the home between a man and a woman, is pure when it is God's Unity. If you would like to hear some of Steve and Annie Chapman's songs, please stop back. I will be sharing some with you. Until that day, Plan a special night for your wife and you. Get her a little teddy nightie and rent a motel room. Just call her up and tell her to be ready to go at what time is good for you. Make sure you take care of the babysitter. Now if it is a woman that is going to surprise her many. She can do it special too. Just do not plan it on a night that you know he works hard and late or he has plans to watch the football game with the guys. One day it might work to interrupt the football game with his men friends, but not at first. Than you buy yourself a teddy and surprise him.
IF you can not afford a hotel or motel, than close the blinds for the night and darkness the home. Tell, the friends to stay away for the next twenty four hours. Turn off the power and use candles, use a battery operated Radio for music or something that plays music. The night will be special if you let you mind go. Who knows, maybe you might just go parking in the corn field, be a little wild. Remembering always, To not be ashamed, heaven holds its blessing to the Holy Unity.

Is today the First Day for the rest of your life?
Some of us have probably prayed and asked God to forgive us for our pass wrongs and help us to start a New Fresh day. We should wake up and start every day new. I learned years ago from reading a book that was from a Wonderful person, The Lord. Yes, this book had man's help to bring it for and it was not the Bible but I can and will say that I grew closer to God because of the Spirit of the Lord using the book to guide me in many ways.
Have you ever woke in the morning to strech, yawn, and saying God Morning Holy Spirit, come help me through this day, walk with me and guide me along the path of our wonderful Lord and homeward bond. I know that I never did it like that before I read the book. I would pray and ask God to guide me through the day. Never have I kept my eyes open and spoke to the Holy Spirit without an Amen at the end of a prayer. At least not until that day, the day that changed my life forever.
We need to understand that if we are Christians and Born again, than we need to know that when Jesus went to Heaven, he left us the Holy Spirit to walk with us and to guide us though out the day. Although we can not see him, he is there through his spirit, the wonderful Holy Spirit. Do not say Amean...Make him your friend for the day and talk to him like you would if your child was standing next to you.
When I started this, it felt strange and I thought people were looking at me. After I did it and seen just how close I was getting to the Lord through it, I did not care if someone though I was crazy, because I was so happy. It never ment you had to scream it out for the world to hear you. If you feel strange than sing your sentence to the Holy Spirit.
I would truly love to hear from those who try this faithfully. I will say that I can not be proven wrong about how close you will get to the Lord, and how wonderful you will feel after you truly do this. Please take a moment to post on here a start day and come back in a week and leave another message to me. I will say you will rush back to share with me.

What is wrong with the way our grandparents did things...
It has troubled me for a long, long time about how Grandma was made to feel like she had to get up every morning to cook breakfast for Grandpa and most the time the children would need to get up and go to the table. It was really messed up back then.
How come years later, after everything Grandma had to do for Grandpa and the children did she act like she still loved him. Did she not know she could have had things a lot better. I really feel badly for Grandma. It was wrong for them to take advantage of her so badly.
You would never go into MOST homes today (remember I said most not all) and find Dad, Mom and the children sitting around the table eating a cooked meal. It is about time someone set things straight. Or should I say maybe something got tangled up and lost along the way.
I truly think that we should take a long look back at the way family life used to be years ago. I am not saying that everyones grandparents did things this way. I will say that those Grandparents that did do things like this probably acted like newly weds to the end of their years on earth. The Husband loved his wife so much that no other woman would catch his fancy as it would have been said.
Things started to go crazy many years ago. Sorry but it is true. Everything Good or Bad has its effect on life as it is today. We all know that the war took many fathers away from their families for a long, long time and in some cases forever, never to return.
Yet, this is one point in history that we can look back and see what really took place. Women had to stay home and care for the children. Some women had to go to work. Sorry, but we all know males and females get tempted and that is why the Bible talks about it is better to get married than to burn, due to lusting. So with husbands away, women alone became tempted, men around other females over seas became tempted. Sadly enough marriages that were strong was ruined because of what the war caused. Once sin starts it will go seven deep within the family unti, unless someone breaks it with the Blood of Jesus forgiving sin and delivering us from the bonds of Satan.
After the war was over, some husbands never returned, some held deep secrets from their spouses, some held mood swings from what it did to them mentally, and some marriages just plain ended. Either way, the war changed a lot. So was Americans the winners or loosers. Sadly enough Everyone Lost and their was No winner at all.
The Question that I ask you is this, How deep will it go into your family. Or are you ready to take the stand and break this bond that Satan has upon the Family Unit. Remember, we all have sinned and fallen short...John 3:16
We serve an Great, Wonderous God, not one person is without sin, Only Jesus Christ and it is through his Boody that we all have hope.

God's plan for a Husband and a Wife
Greetings to All,
After struggling for a while over doing this blog or not doing it, I have finally gave into the Lord. Over the past several years I have fought many battles, but not listening to what the Lord wants is a battle that there is only one winner. The winner is declared. The Lord has won.
Sometimes God speaks to an individual about saying something, doing something or even just to speak up about something. When this happens to me, I sometimes think God is not really asking me to do this because who am I that people will hear what I say.
I will not lie to you, I am not perfect and I have failed in many ways. In some ways I still fail and struggle badly. I wish that I could just one day wake up and my trials and temptations would be gone. Than I would feel others might listen to what the Lord is telling me to share with others.
So I guess what I am saying it this...
I am not perfect and I do not know what I am going to be sharing with you, but I do know that this blog is focused upon a Husband and a Wife. What I share is going to be left up to the Lord.
If your a man reading this, than do not think that your wife is going to hear me say that everything you say is correct and she has to listen to you. Nor should a wife think that I will say that a husband should jump up and help around the house.
No, I am sorry but my focus is based upon what the Lord is showing me and speaking to me about.
Something has happened to the family Unity and the complete family is suffering from it. The question is this, Who is going to start to change and reclaim their home for the Lord? Than again, maybe you should ask what is it going to take to get this change to take place? Does it mean your going to have to give up something?
Chances are you will need to give up something. However, I will not be the one pointing the finger and telling you to give it up. I do not know what you do in your daily life, but if at any time you think that I am pointing a finger at you, than maybe you might ask God what is the deal.
Our children are a gift from God, these children are not a burden from God even if they are not listening to your right now. I can only tell you that Marriage commitment is important and is valuable to you, your partner and God. If your struggling with issues than may I suggest to you that you take a few minutes right now to recommit your life to the Lord. There has been times that I have recommited my life because I just wanted to let God know that I wanted to keep improving my life to lead more people to him. Recommitting your life doesn't have to mean that you are just returning to him, but either way it is special time in a relationship. Kind of like a love letter.
