I Choose You

"Fight For You", what does this quote mean? It should resemble all relationships but there are too many that are far from it. What does it mean to fight for somebody? When you think of the word "love", what comes to your mind? Maybe you picture a scene in the top romance movie, or maybe the couple holding hands on the street "they must be in love right?" So many people have this idea that love is a magical thing. Like in fairytales...the "Happily Ever After" but I'm sorry to tell you: If Cinderella and Prince charming were to be married in real life, their story would be more complicated than that. The things is that so many people want that type of relationship, friendship or marriage where everything is perfect and goes smoothly. That, however, is not how things work out. We have flaws, there are struggles, and we have to make a choice to stay with our loved ones regardless of the circumstances and atmosphere. Jesus was the perfect resemblance of this. He died on that cross never looking back, even though the people he "loved" didn't love him back, and even though it was very painful. In his mind their was nothing he would rather do, no one he would rather be with more than us. I believe that is why so many marriages fail. People don't look at this example and decide to fight, instead they run. Some people don't even believe in Jesus but what example do they get? Only the world's example...it's not enough. A great song that talks all about this is Fight for you by Grayson|Reed. They are a fantastic husband - wife duo! Listen to their story behind the song and then listen to the beautiful lyrics. May it bless you and your family today :)

In A Different Way

Many parents have their way of doing things...I propose we do things In A Different Way here are some ways parents DO their things The "Empowerment" Way 1. Because I can, because I said so The "Comparison" Way 2.  So and So would never do that! Why can't you be like (name here). The "Simple" Way   3. your grounded. I'm taking your phone! Go to your room! Tell your dad (tell your mom) These ways can work (they often do, ask any parent!) but we aren't here to do it the EASY way, we're here to teach our kids. The truth is...some kids don't learn from the Easy Way but most parents aren't willing to try any other way. They use excuses like "it worked for them...it works on my other kid(s). They just don't take the time. Then parents are left wondering "why do my kids never listen?" The problem is that kids aren't being taught. Sure, these methods work a lot but that doesn't guaranteed that every ki

Meaningful Moments

 "Love is enough" The quote that many have requoted for years. While some may say it is true, is it really? Is love really enough? What does that even mean? Well, some would say love is a feeling so if we're going based solely on that fact, then sorry to say but no it is not enough. See that is the problem, we base our relationship on how we are feeling. We base the ranking of our family on how we feel about each other and whether we fight or not. You may not be aware but ALL...let me say it again, ALL relationships have their ups and downs, every family fights once in a while. If you really base it solely on that, you'll be let down every time. "So what do we base it on?" you may ask; You base it on actions, its a conscience decision everyday to say "no matter what, I will stick around and fight for you, for US." That is what you signed up for when you said "I do" and many of us are standing at the altar with our children present while w
