The Power of the Father

May 9, 2011 Church & Religion No Comments

the-game-plan-movie I was watching the movie ” The Game Plan” starring Dwayne Johnson again the other night. Thanks to DSTV always repeating movies over and over. Well something Stuck with me and that’s a line used in the movie ” The power of The Father”.

This got me thinking about just how important the role of the father really is. To many of us and with “us” I mean fathers, we do not take our role to seriously. The only role we tend to play without fail is that of  provider. Now again don’t get me wrong I admire men that can provide for their families. I think in today’s day and age we need more of those kind of man.  Looking around in my community alone its amazing how many fatherless homes you see. It reminds me of what someone once said “any fool can be a father but not all fathers can be dads” or something like that. You know what I mean.

Anyway that is not what I wanted to focus on so back to the topic of the day. As I said the line got me thinking what is the true power of the father. Surely there must be more to it then just providing for your families financial needs.

4 Hour Body

March 15, 2011 Marriage & Family No Comments

We all always go out of our way to look our best when we still courting. The hair is always at its best and we always smell as fresh as daisies. This and allot more is done with the aim of impressing our partners.
Then a few years into marriage and we let ourselves go. All of a sudden these things are not important anymore. Well maybe not all of us but this was true in my case. Before I knew it I was weighing. 115kilo’s. Not only is this bad but it’s extremely unhealthy aswell.
This is when I came across Tim Farris’ revolutionary diet and workout plan called 4Hour Body.

4 STAGES OF MARRIAGE

September 5, 2009 Marriage & Family No Comments

There are 4 Stages of Marriage: (1) Romance, (2) Disillusionment, (3) Misery, and (4) Awakening. Due to the high divorce rate many couples never make it to the 4th Stage of Awakening. Romance

Most are familiar with the 1st Stage of Romance. Life was so wonderful we couldn’t stand to live without the other. Our thoughts often turned to the other when we were not with them. We had fallen in love and knew that this was the person we wanted to spend the rest of our life with. Little differences between us were cute and endearing.

And the two shall become One

May 21, 2009 Marriage & Family 1 Comment

Mark 10:7:8

7‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 8and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one.

I always pondered on this statement. When does it actually happen? when we confess our love to each other and say I do, when you kiss the bride or when you consummate the marriage.
