Don't Be Unequally Yoked!!

2 Corinthians 6:14: "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" (KJV)

Unequally: Not the same in any measurable aspect, such as extent or quantity, Having unbalanced sides or parts; asymmetrical

 Yoked: Something that connects or joins together; a bond or tie

 What does it mean to be unequally yoked according to this definition??? - Having an unbalanced bond??








Different Relationships that can be unequally yoked:

 Friends
Boyfriends/Girlfriends
Husband/Wives
Mother/Daughter
List Goes on and on!!! 

What if I am unequally yoked?

 I can't provide you with the right answer, but you have to seek God for yourself. You have to look at that relationship and see if it is taking you away from spending time with God and if it is, you have to let it go. Some things and people in your life are not meant to be there, so it is time to disconnect somethings and stay connected to the master.
Get out of these unequally yoked relationships!!!

Humble Yourself!!

What Is Pride? Pride : a feeling or deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired Humility : a modest or low view of one's own importance Examples of Individuals of Fell in the Bible Daniel 5:20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him.   Examples of Individuals who showed Humility in the Bible Genesis 41:16 (Joseph)   Joseph answered Pharaoh, “It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh a favorable answer.” Exodus 3:11  But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” (Moses) Mark 1:7 (John the Baptist)   And he preached, saying,  “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and unt...

Living a life of contentment

When my wonderful friend, Dianna asked me to contribute to her website with a blog on the topic of “Are you satisfied” I felt somewhat hesitant. How could I speak on being satisfied, when I myself had not mastered the art of satisfaction? Just recently, I found myself discouraged as I watched friends, family and colleagues continue surpassing me in regards to my “goals”. It is not uncommon to find yourself in situations that bring you to question your satisfaction in life and bring you to the thoughts of“if only”… “When I get married I will be truly happy,” or “When I finally get the job I want, then I will be content,” and the list goes on. It can be challenging to find contentment in a generation of people who are discontent. I want to start by saying satisfaction does not happen overnight; this is a daily decision. Jesus told us to take up our cross daily, that includes making a daily decision to be satisfied and content; for it is not God’s will that we be discontent. Matter of fa...

Preparing for Marriage

Hi Everyone! I know that it has been a few months since I posted a blog. Please forgive me! I am working on some projects that I will be able to announce very soon! I often get asked "How is married life" or "What I wish I had known prior to marriage". There most certainly isn't a manual on how to get it right, and I still have a loooooooooooooong way to go, however there are a few things that I have learned over the past few years that I thought I would share. I have been married 3.5 years now, and got married when I was 21 years old, so this ain't ya grammy's marriage advice LOL. This is millennial advice Ha! But I think it is still valuable. My husband and I have found a passion for helping young couples who desire to get married or are currently experiencing marital difficulties. We have attended several marriage conferences, surrounded ourselves with amazing marriages and we have also trained to facilitate conversation for marriages on the bri...
