Kill your Long Distance Relationships!

So you've met this really nice guy but he lives so far away and you are wondering if it makes sense to start a relationship knowing that distance would be a really big factor. Then there are those of us who have started a relationship but then had things shaken up due to a partner having to move far away. How do you know that this relationship is worth ignoring the distance for? The truth is, you don't ever know this for sure because nothing is sure in life except death of course. So what do you do? If you see a spark of potential go ahead and take that risk and ignore the miles that are between you and your love or potential love.

The hardest part of a long distance relationship is probably the lack of the psychical touch and sadly there is no substitute for this. However, what long distance relationships offer is a chance to test out and strengthen your communication and emotional skills which are far more important in the long run. The most important thing you have right now is to learn to express yourself better to your partner through words and visual aids such as video chat and even by sending them a gift or two to brighten up their day.

One of the most important tips for long distance lovers is to ignore the negativity of those around you who believe you are wasting your time and that your relationship won't last. Your relationship isn't for others to understand but for you and your partner to understand. It won't be an easy journey but if you are determined to make it work the distance will only strengthen your bond in the long run.

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Be more thankful

It's so easy for us to complain it's like we do it everyday. Are we more thankful for the blessings we have no matter how small they seem? It seems to me that more than ever people are more ungrateful than they are grateful. No matter how bad things are always remember that they could be much worse. Our house isn't big so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a house. Our pay cheque is small so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a job. Our skin isn't flawless so we complain instead of be thankful that we still have our skin to protect our bodies. Our body isn't sculpted perfectly so we complain instead of being thankful that all our body parts are still functioning. Our world is very ungrateful and we can never seem to be satisfied no matter how many blessings we have. This week I ask of you to be thankful for something everyday no matter how small it may seem.

This World

A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...
