THERE IS ALWAYS A MOMENT.

JUST AS I AM,YOUNG AND FREE...TO BE THE BEST THAT I CAN BE...

My young heart burst with a longing to serve the Lord GENUINELY , that night, as sat on my bathroom floor in my new house,somewhere in Asia. I was flooded with His joy and the knowledge of His love for me personally.  I begun to think back, how my life had begun as a young child in a school run by soldiers: as a soldier himself, my dad was full of hope for my bright future.

I was sent to one of the best Secondary schools in Ghana, West Africa. I graduated with good grades and had admission into two prominent universities in Ghana. Now the twist, my parents refused to send me to either of those universities because,well they couldn't afford it. (Later on, we will find out the genuine reasons why)

I ended up in the teachers training college where I was trained to become a professional teacher. Before entering the college, I had met a beautiful man.. He was playing the role of adviser and friend at this time. Then my boyfriend for two months and then a platonic friend again for three years. 

My walk with this young man; the experiences we share together, experiences from both our extended families, experiences from our childhoods,experiences with our friendships with other people and most importantly our walk and faith in God with regards to being married and staying married is what I would be sharing with you over the next few days. 

I hope I am able to inspire you and reveal to you some very hidden ingredients to staying married. My wish is for you to hear something you have not heard before, perhaps the hard truth to keeping that marriage together. 

                             
                                               Ephesians 4:2
                             WITH ALL LOWLINESS AND MEEKNESS,
                                        WITH    LONG-SUFFERING,
                               FORBEARING ONE ANOTHER IN LOVE


As mentioned in an earlier post, there are fun challenges to this. So this week, lets do the kissing marathon. Strictly for couples of the CFC(Couples for Christ).  Lets have fun kissing our partners this week. 
Comment CFC.     Lets fix that marriage!

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers,  Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important.  Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages.  Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

Akos breaks TV3 Mentor's male winner record

The male dominance in TV3′s Mentor  came to an end in the wee hours of Monday, August 19, 2013 when Roselyn Akosua Mantey, popularly called Akos, was adjudged winner of Season VII of the station’s flagship reality show.  She beat competition from Gabriel Ansah, populalrly known as Gabby, and Honny Kingsley Theophilus, also known as Honny, to walk away with the sleek Hyndai Accent saloon car. She will also be GH¢7,000 richer and will receive souvenirs from sponsors. Akos’ performance in the final, held at the Accra International Conference Center (AICC), kept a large section of the audience chorusing her name as winner of the contest, which began with 16 contestants. The night began with performances from  Mentor IV  winner Michael Kesse Frimpong (Kesse) and  Mentor II  runner-up Joseph Nii Otu Ankrah, known during his “Mentor days” as Joe but now with showbiz monicker Nii. After the introduction of the various groups into which this season’s...

Making the effort part 3 (TAKEN FOR GRANTED?)

Bonjour a tous, We have discussed conciously making up our minds to work on our marriages or relationships.  We have learnt to go to God in difficult situations, we have decided divorce is not an option. Does that mean we give a green pass to our spouse to be unfaithful to us?  Or for our spouses to neglect the core values of spicing up the marriage and keeping it enjoyable.  Marriage is about consisently doing life together. what do we do in our daily lives.  Lets remind ourselves; sleep, wake up, prepare breakfast, eat, take a shower, wash dishes, go to work, attend to peoples needs, come back home, have dinner, take another bath, sleep! Oh I think I left out prayer! And if you have kids under ten(not in all cases), helping them take a bath and getting ready for school and bed.  And making sure they are fed. On weekends its a whole new plan which may include more or less activities.  Can we think of not hurting our spouses or keeping them...
