Men The Woman is the weaker vessel. This is according to the Lord, not my opinion. How many of us men have failed in relationships? If we are on here, we have at least once more than likely. I think when the Lord says that a man should be prepared to lay down his very life for his spouse, he means it. Count the cost? We are called to do that in all our endeavors that we choose. We need to be doing this. I am going to add a little twist to this. I have known Mercy for this the 9th year. I have to go to her. Women in 3rd world countries are not allowed to come to the United States unless they have met their man previously. The cost for me is this. I am going into a country where unless God protects me I can lose my life. It is a corrupt nation. But I love Mercy whether she weighs 125 like she says or if she weighs 150. I love her support of me through thick and thin. I love the person she has consistently been for all of these years. We are called to be the priests and prophets of our homes. We are called to nurture our wives and throughout all obstacles of life. We are called to have a vision for our family. To help guide and encourage. This all means selfless, not on the golf range to get away from life. Our calling is to make sure our wife and are emotionally taken care of. Then we can rest. Counting the cost? Or make the same mistakes over and over again? |

Debee Thank you for a wonderful presentation, and I agree with you. To be honest with you I think the issue begins in the church for men. I have bever believed that a pastor was ever intended to be an orator or a position for that matter. A mans role is usurped in the Church I believe. How many elders and ushers etc can their be? Men are taught to attend. To stand when we sing, sit when someone speaks, to give money and to walk out the door when its over. In the original fellowships they met in homes. All the men had equal opportunity to share what God was doing in their lives. They all sang and worshipped together and they all prayed for each other. The men as a whole were strong for their communities. Now most are providers and they allow the pastor to be who they should be as priest and prophet of their family. Thanks for stopping by

Thomas.... Brother, i've never been in a relationship as a Christian man. I pray the Lord will send angels to encamp around you as you do what you must-in the name of Jesus, amen. I have already prayed the prayer of faith for you and Mercy, so I believe things will be well for you. If we are to love our wives as Christ loves the church, then of course that means we would lay down our lives for them. I am hopeful it won't come to that for you I know you will do just fine because I sense in you a heart that desires God's best in his life Blessings to you and thank you for your prayers.

Weaker Vessel, eh? You try pushing 3 babies out without drugs! I'd like to see a man do that! * Sin is sin. Careful what comes across your lips & out your finger tips!!! * We are all the Body of Christ. Let's treat each other as such, with the same respect we give to HIM!! * Relationship advice: DO NOT make someone a PRIORITY, when they ONLY make you an OPTION!! * A woman's heart should be so lost in God, that a man has to seek HIM in order to find her!!

I know this is not funny but couldnt help laughing... the pun here... "But I love Mercy whether she weighs 125 like she says or if she weighs 150. I love her support of me through thick and thin." Jn:14:15: If ye love me, keep my commandments. --Jesus.

I don't know you at all, but I do read the blogs and I have noticed a difference in you lately. A softness. I can tell God is working in you and that is exciting. and the softness is appealing. Whatever is going on, rest assured that God has something BIG in mind for you. Hang on, Dennis. He will take you to great heights and sustain you there.
