PREPARING FOR MARRIAGE There are many of you who are searching for love. Marriage is a calling; a holy covenant between God, your spouse, and yourself. Many times we become so focused on finding the right person that we forget that in the meantime our job is to BECOME the right person. You wouldn’t walk into your final year exams without studying. Likewise, you don’t walk into marriage blindfolded, In order for your marriage to be all that God designed it to be, make the decision to start preparing yourself NOW. Marriage takes work! I am talking about 24/7/365 work! The great thing about the marital covenant is that when you give it your all, you can live “happily ever after” Ask God to help you become the wife you are called to be, even if you are not already in that position. To us, waiting may seem like wasting. But to God, waiting is preparation. He has a big work to do in both your heart and the heart of your future spouse before He calls you both together.

I THOUGHT IT WAS MY FAULT My father used to touch me in a horrible way when mum was at work at night. I was 10 years old when it started. I felt so sick when I knew it was a night that mum had to work, worrying about what would happen. I was tens and stressing out all the time. I was scared to tell anyone, I thought it was my fault too because I didn’t stop it. He used to say I shouldn’t tell anyone and that mum would kick me out if she found out. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t want anyone at school finding out, because I felt like they all look down on me. This has been going on for the last four (4) years. This year we had a health class, and someone came to our school to talk about abuse. I knew that what they were talking about was what was happening to me. At the end of the class I just sat there when the bell rang, I felt like my head was about to explode.  The teacher asked me if I was okay. I avoided the question for a while, but now it must have shown on my fa...

SELF IDENTITY (WHO AM   I   ) Self Identity is the perception or recognition of one's characteristics as a particular individual, especially in relation to social context.   Who you are is yourself identity, the way you look at yourself and your relationship to the world. Understanding this, allows you to examine who you are and more importantly create who you want to be. Who I am is a question everyone at some point will ask themselves, certainly a question many organizations, religious and self gurus have attempted to provide an answer to on your behalf. It is my opinion that our understanding of our roles in the world and the universe,  and how to influence it have come a long way in the last decades of humanity.  It is nice to think that everything in the Universe was created for you because you are special.
