Hubby picking on you?

Question: 

Help. Hubby picks on me and says I need to lose weight. He doesn't compliment me or pay any attention to me. He wants a vec but I want more kids. What should I do?



Answer: 

Don't focus on the negative. Focus on the positive. If you want to pick on all the reasons why you should break up, there will be plenty. Start counting on the reasons to keep this marriage. There will be equally much if not more.


Marriage is hard work. From both sides. And more than not, you will always feel like you're on the side that does all the work. 


The Bible says that our body does not belong to us. And being on the heavy side is not good for health either. There's nothing to lose losing weight but weight. 


Don't take it personally. To cut the long story short, you're trying to say that your hubby is not into you. I'm not saying he is. You could be right. But that's because marriage takes work. When you plant a seed, it grows. But you need to water it. Work means you have to do something that will draw him to you and please him. If you have a problem with pleasing your husband, there might be something you need to deal with in your heart.


Marriage is not just hard work but suffering too. Love is long suffering. So marriage is long suffering.

Couple Disagreements -- To Move or Stay Put?

It's not up to either of you nor is it our place to advice you. You both need to pray and seek the Lord for guidance on this. The Lord has led us as a family from one place to another. There is a time to move and there is a time to stay put. Ask the Lord for guidance. Also, submission to your husband and saving your marriage is more important than money. How to Pray: Both of you, go to a room, whether alone or together, close your eyes, ask God to give you guidance on whether to move or stay, and ask Him for a book, chapter and verse. Then wait for it with eyes closed. Wait for the book, chapter number and verse number. Read the whole chapter anyway, including the key verse.  It's hard the first few times but you'll get it over time, do it everyday as devotion. Get a notebook or Google Drive to write down what God is saying. Then match your verse and understanding with his. After a few days, you kind of know where this is going.

How to Fast the Right Way

First of all, motive. Fast to draw close to Him, and don't let anyone know that you're fasting. Matthew 6:16-18  For a Full Fast: Just tell them that you're taking some time off will be booked on those dates and can't be contacted during those periods.  Turn your phone on silent mode. It's basically only for emergencies, or else, don't answer at all. Lock yourself in your room. Matthew 6:6-7 Drink lots of water if you're going on a full fast. If you're living with others, only go out of the room to get more water. What you actually do: No work, no play, just fast and pray. And worship and Word and talk to Him and draw close to Him. And write down what He says. Do your devotion.

Lazy teens

A teen is not a kid anymore. Then again, boys mature about 3 years slower, so just take that into account.  When faced with lazy teens, we need to find out the root issue — is it a spirit of laziness? It has to be addressed. He needs to know that it is a spirit and not him. And that he has to fight it. And what happens when spirits like that are not warded off. And how they can ultimately possess a person when entertained and given into. If it’s not laziness, it is a lack of motivation. What do they really have in mind that is really bothering them or they are inspired about and work on that.
