EVERY CHILD NEEDS POSITIVE LABELS DAILY!!!

Positive or negative labels shape a child’s present life and often their adult life. When parents and adults give a child POSITIVE LABELS like--confident, motivated, hard-working, determined, kind--they often live up to those labels. NEVER be insincere and EVERY DAY give a child POSITIVE LABELS!

SEXUAL INTIMACY CREATES AN EMOTIONAL CONNECTION!

Sexual intimacy and marriage cannot be placed in two different compartments. Sexual intimacy and marriage are very much interconnected for relationship happiness. Sexual intimacy is not just for physical pleasure but is a way of demonstrating love for a deeper emotional connection, and more importantly, strengthening the “oneness” God desires for every marriage.

FAMILY MEALS TOGETHER MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE!!!

FAMILY MEALS TOGETHER AT THE TABLE make a POSITIVE DIFFERENCE!!! When a child is struggling behaviorally or academically, family meals are often not eaten together and that causes a child to feel neglected and insecure in all aspects of life. As often as possible, FAMILIES NEED TO EAT MEALS TOGETHER AT THE TABLE for AMAZING RESULTS! The meals together are to be relaxing, enjoyable experiences for every family member.

SECRETS DAMAGE A MARRIAGE!!!

SECRETS DAMAGE A MARRIAGE!!! The moment a spouse begins keeping SECRETS, DECEIT and BETRAYAL are at the core of the relationship. If any activity needs to be a secret, it is not a healthy endeavor. Spouses with integrity have NO SECRETS and are TRUTHFUL and HONEST with all their activities. TRUST is built by having NO SECRETS!

Love Is Demonstrated Through Time Together!

A great synonym for LOVE is TIME! When a parent spends time with a child that creates a feeling of true importance and special value.  Both QUALITY and QUANTITY of time is what truly matters, and it often takes scheduling to make that happen. FOCUSED TIME together helps a child know their parent truly cares and loves them! TIME TOGETHER is also essential in marriage!!!

STRIVE FOR SELF-CONTROL!!!

SELF-CONTROL (Galatians 5:22), not other control, is always the goal for every person and both spouses in a marriage. Controlling people have an untrue perception of life! In a happy marriage, both spouses cooperate with one another, meaning they are EASY TO GET ALONG WITH and AGREEABLE, never controlling.
