Cookie Cutter Christian Marriage Idealism

A lot of single women have too much idealism on their dream guy -- godly, loving, etc. With expectations come disappointments. Not everyone's marriage starts off with a guy all out for God. Some take years to cultivate this. I wish young Christian ladies will shake off that fantasy mindset and learn to settle for anything that God has put on their plate. When several women get the love of their lives, they make it a cookie cutter for all the other single Christian women. It's not always like that. Sometimes the guy that God has for you is not the ideal spiritual guy you have been waiting for because for some people, you have to pray him into it and it takes years and yet, somehow, this is the guy God has for you. I'm not God. And I don't ask why.

Previously "forced" to get baptized and speak in tongues?

Get baptized again. Nothing wrong with that. At least this time, it's from your heart. You don't HAVE to speak in tongues immediately. But some people learn by following others first, that's possible, not always the case. Some just get it without anyone teaching them. But no, it's not mocking to teach it. Everyone is different, that's all. But the question now is whether you want to learn to speak in tongues or not. I believe God created tongues for us to use, and He had a reason for it. Romans 8:26 "Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." What probably should have been done is to first share with you the main reason for baptism. John 1:4-5 "John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, ...

Mommy, what's Santa?

What I did with mine was that when they mentioned Santa, I would tell them the truth. Lying is a sin. And they need to trust us because if Santa can be fake and we make them believe that, they will think Jesus is fake too. Our credibility is at stake.  This is what I say: "So the truth is that Santa was actually St Nicholas -- he was a very good guy and this is what he did for the kids who couldn't afford toys but then he died a long time ago. People today just want to remember his contributions but the way they did it took away the true meaning of Christmas of Jesus and His birth. And that's why we don't do Santa. But other kids do, and their parents lie to them about it. But we must not interfere with what other parents say to their kids. So if someone asks, it's ok to say that we just don't do Santa. We do Baby Jesus."

If Your Husband is in Love with Someone Else

Other than praying for your husband, you can try a few things: 1. Pray and fast for him 2. Every morning, ask "How can I love you today?" 3. Look into his eyes, hold his hands and tell him how much you appreciate all he has done and how much he means to you, sincerely from your heart. 4. Wash his feet. Literally. With a bucket of water. 5. How you feel now isn't half as bad as how it's going to be if you really have that divorce. Do everything you can to save your marriage the devil is attacking. That woman is not from God. He is committing adultery. Don't give up.
