Pride goes before a fall 1

-

    Okay, let me think! The saying: pride goes before a fall, does this mean we should bring ourselves so low and be stepped on?

 Yeah, I am right that is what you are probably thinking.

Pride is totally different from high self esteem.

 Pride is when you are too big to do what the "ordinary" does. That is not high self esteem, that is a feeling of, hey! I can't do this because I am too big to do it.

  Probably, it is; I am too big to say sorry or I am too big to sweep the ground or I am too big to run that errand.

 And this is the attitude a lot of people, both male and female carry into a relationship and then into marriage.

Once you ever feel too big to say sorry to your spouse just get ready to always have unnecessary issues, quarrels, insults and then violence.

  A relationship that wants to work out does not lack the ability of saying sorry.

 The word sorry is so powerful. Able to prevent what could be a tragedy. Just a simple sorry can turn the wrath of a person.
And that is why GOD loved King David. He was a king that knew who the greater King was. Whenever he did anything wrong, he was ready to fall down flat and seek mercy.

You see a lot of couples, who feel saying sorry is letting down your guards, it means you are less of a person.
That is the devil telling you lies.

 If you want your relationship and marriage to work, learn the habit of saying sorry, it works magic.

 Whenever there is an argument or an issue rising up, just say sorry and see what would have become a mighty issue become so little and settled.
 
 Pride is not high self esteem.
 In fact it is those who say sorry that are more respected.

                 Look before you leap!      Yeah, I know you are wondering what Wulika means by you should look before you leap.   I mean you should watch out before you lose it all.   Just like you will be advised before venturing into a new business; to do your feasibility study on your market to avoid unnecessary mistakes.   It is the same thing when venturing into a new relationship, you need to understand a lot of things to avoid mistakes.  And you cannot deny that there needs to be Compatibility factors between you both, these are the things that you need to look out for before saying Yes!   You should find things that connects the both of you it makes it easier to love. We can't have a wide difference in interests and expect the relationship to last.   And a lot of people deceive themselves by trying to be into what their partners love just to let their par...

Stop putting unnecessary pressure on your relationship!

I am sure most of you will be able to relate to what you are about to read. I would like us to be honest with ourselves. Most of us do these things and hurt our partner and our relationship. I am sometimes left to wonder if these people instigating this pressure are not concerned about the state of their relationship/marriage. Because why would you be bringing in unnecessary drama into your relationship, especially when you are very aware that this could be sickening to your relationship? Please let us pay close attention to this topic as we progress. What do I mean by putting unnecessary pressure on your relationship?   Now, I am going to make you understand what I mean when I talk about putting pressure on your relationship.   There are some things that ought to be overlooked in a relationship, but as usual, you demand answers, you over think and over act on things (whether little or not) your partner does. …which could absolutely be wrong! When you are finally able to g...

Faith in God instead

    Honestly speaking because although I am a spiritual person with so much belief in God I am also a realistic person  There are so many times where it is so much easier to trust men more than God. The reason is simple, we see who promises us and we believe they are nearer than God is to us.   But we forget that these people are mere mortal able to deceive and disappoint not because most of the time they want to but because that is who they are, it is our nature. We are mere mortals.   Hence, God wants us to know that they have a limit to what they can do. It is God who put that nature in man that we may know that He has the final say over all situations.  So it is only reasonable to trust in Him who sets a mark for the sea to cross. The only time when God may deny us of some things is when He knows we don't need those things.  A man once said if God sees that you need a thing, He makes provision for that thing.  So maybe the reaso...
