Matthew

22:30


At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.


People believe what they want to believe however when you get to a point of self-actualization then there is less focus on the biological needs that we have...  You do realize that in heaven there is no marriage...  That being said if you enjoy certain aspects of marriage then you'd better get on with it...  If you get my drift...

1st Corinthians

7


"Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman..."

Being single, being married...  Being single, being married...  How you live this life is a choice...  You have a choice to be married or to stay single...  Depending on the season of your life you may do both...  However considering what is out there in the world today be utterly cautious...  If you knew you were going to end up with a nutcase then marriage will become your worse nightmare but if you don't take the risk you may miss out on a slice of heaven on earth...  It's hard to know...  Know what I mean?

Beautiful Outlaw


Getting to know someone intimately...  Some people don't bring on feelings of mediocrity...  Instead they bring on feelings of love or hatred...  Why?  It just is...  Some people provoke that kind of a reaction...  There is someone that provoked that kind of reaction many years ago...  Do you know who that person is?  Why not read about him?

1 Corinthians

7:8


But I say to the unmarried and to widows that it is good for them if they remain even as I.

Is it better to be single or married?  Some married people are very unhappy...  And some single people are very happy.  And vice versa...  It is a decision we all make.  There are things you can do when you are single that you can't do when you are married...

Kindom Single


Single...  Married...  Single...  Married...  What's a good rule of thumb?  If you didn't settle and meet the right one then marriage is a good idea...  If you are independent and don't like to compromise then most likely being single is a good idea...  Not everyone is called to be married...  Some like their freedom most...

Grumpy Monkey


What would life be without emotion and passion...  We all have good days and bad days...  However when we are young we are still learning to express our emotions, aren't we?  This book is about being grumpy.  Who else is grumpy?  Who else but Oscar the Grouch!  LOL!

For Oceans

The Remnant

Followers of the Way


Where is the way?
I'm looking for the way...
People here...
People there...
All working
towards
one common goal...

Sometimes
they think
that they are alone.
The only ones
that care...
However there are
more than they know...

Working towards
the same common goal...
Oh no...
They are not alone...
Not by a long shot...
Take courage...
Never fear...

What to do?
Join forces...
Connect the dots...
Find each other...
Join hands...
Unite...
Fear not!

Do you know the story of Nehemiah?  What happened to him?  What did they learn?  Don't ever give up hope...  Hope exists for a reason...  Just take baby steps...  Sometimes that's all that you can do...  One baby step at a time...  Just one baby step...

Double Blessing


What's the real secret to success?  Giving back...  Recognizing others...  Paying it forward...  They say the more you give the more you get...  If you selfishly hold onto all that you have then you will lose it but if you give it away...  It's difficult when you hold on too tightly...

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."

It doesn't matter who we are but we all get a mix of the "good, bad, and the ugly" in our lives.  Who gives us good things and who gives us bad?  Recently I was at a Sunday service and the key words were:  faith, focus, alert, and positive...  These are what we need to aim for this year...  :)  Keep the faith!
