6 Tips to improve the health of your BLENDED family

Blended families occur when there's a new family unit after a previous marriage or relationship. i.e. at least one member of the family isn't a "biological" member.

You think your spouse to reality

You are a result of your mental projections; Your spouse is a result of what you project at them; Your children are results of your mental and verbal projections; Your projections emanate from your thoughts; Your thoughts emanate from what you believe. If you believe that your husband is the best in the world, you'd think it and project it and soon he will act it out. If you believe that your wife is your worst problem, you'd think it and project it and she will act it out. What you believe about them is what you think and project to them and it is what they also become. Why is this so? As a husband or wife, you are the closest modeller in the life of your spouse now they have left their parents. You are the closest, most consistent influence on their lives and results. What you see and like or dislike was partly made by you and its results good or bad will be borne by you. So quit complaining and nagging and bellyaching and wishing you got someone better. You-make the one you ...

Marriage is like a Garden

Beauty takes some effort. Removing the bad and maintaining or improving on the good. A marriage is like a garden. To have a beautiful garden, takes nuturing and weeding. Nurture your marriage with a great attitude, appreciation, love, commitment, positive disposition, etc. When you see the bad, weed them. The saying goes that we do not throw away the baby with the bath water. Remove the weed (issues), not the flowers (spouse), because even if you hop from spouse to spouse or relationship to relationship, if the issues in you are still there, the garden would always be ugly. Work on being a better you, encourage, help and pray for your spouse to be a better them.  Nurture your relationship, tend your garden and watch it blossom. Love is always a choice...🤗 For relationship counseling, talktoladyt@gmail.com #love #relationships #dating #marriage #homes #spouse #husband #wife #choices #godlymarriage #strongmarriage #bettertogether

Happy Valentine's Day! Show your Love

  I grew up not celebrating Valentine's Day....it was the day of sin 😁 as a teenager and later a single lady. Iykyk I still rarely do, as our love should be celebrated everyday. However, we can choose to see it as an opportunity to renew our vows, love and actions for our spouses. So today, make your spouse feel special. Tell them again why you love them. Why you picked them out of several others, particularly if you've been caught up in the naira notes and fuel stress and you haven't had time to connect. Reconnect today and make a promise to reconnect everyday. Love is a beautiful thing and it's what makes the world a better place. To the singles, rejoice with the couples around you. Don't say "God when", but say, "God thank you", for you too will be celebrated as married soon. Love is always a choice...🤗 For relationship counseling, talktoladyt@gmail.com #premaritalcounseling #maritalcounseling #datingadvice #marriageadvice #choices #godlymar...

What's a Marriage without sex?

  What's a marriage without sex? How often do you have sex? How pleasurable is your sexual experience? When you made your vows, you pledged your bodies to each other. Sex is the ultimate symbol of a marriage. The "knowing" of your spouse. Do not deprive him/her of sex. Improve the health of your relationship, have sex today and everyday ☺️.  "Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder.  The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality—the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. Marriage is not a place to “stand up for your rights.” Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out." 1 Corinthians 7:2‭-‬4 MSG Love is always a choice...🤗 For relationship counseling, talktoladyt@gmail.com #premaritalcounseling #maritalcounseling #marriagehelp #christiancounseling

Dear wife, let him look forward to coming home

A home is a place of rest and peace. Our homes should be our no judgement zones.  After facing so much pressure from work, colleagues, traffic, bad weather, car trouble, and maybe seductresses/seducers, the last thing you want to open the door of your home to meet is trouble. Some women wonder why their husbands would rather hangout with friends or stay out of the house till odd hours... Maybe, just maybe you're the reason... Maybe the heat you give him is too much. He can't do A right nor B well enough. You are always ready with a quick retort or a scornful expression.  A man's brain can only process so much pressure. You're to be his leisure. Don't chase him out with tension rather embrace him with pleasure. The bible says "It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman." Proverbs 21:19 KJV. Interestingly, Solomon repeated this in Proverbs about 5 times. I guess his experience freaked him out. Ladies, let's calm d...
