Marriagetips: Is not good for a man to be alone

 Whenever Joe has problem,he will say to himself, " I won't tell my wife how discouraged I feel today.

I'm a man.My wife must not think that I can't handle my problems."

It's not good for a man to be alone.according to Genesis 2:18.

A man and wife are no longer two.They are one. According to Mathew 19:6.

What are the Barriers to communication?

In Europe, Asia, Africa, America and everywhere else, many couples fail to communicate.Why? Because they allow barriers to stop their communication; barriers such as 'fear,' 'too busy,' and so on.

Let's talk about Fear!

It's a sad that some husbands make their wives fear them. Fear use to destroy communication.God says a wife must " Submit" to her husband, but not " FEAR" him.

Wive, submit to your husband.according to Ephesians 5: 22.

There's no fear in love.Love removes fear.according to 1 John 4:18.

Too Busy!

For Example : Dan and his wife.

Dan says, " My wife and I are so busy with our jobs and with church,we have no time to communicate." I advised you to take time to communicate,no matter what.

Don't be overly busy.Eliminate some of your activities.And find ways to serve God together.

Not Listening!

Another barrier to communicate is failure to listen.Sometimes when Carol is speaking,I think of something I want to say.

As she is talking, I'm waiting for a chance to tell her my great idea. But while I'm waiting, I'm not listening.

Or sometimes when she is talking,I see that she is mistaken about some small point. While she is Speaking, I'm planning  the words I will use to correct her.

But while I'm planning, I'm not listening.

Whenever Carol is speaking, I should focus my mind on her. I should really listen.Then, If  I'm still not sure what she means, I should ask, "Are you saying.....or do you mean.......?"

So each time your husband/ wife communicate with you you have to be careful to listen. Not listening kills communication.

Bible Gist: Beautiful Garden

 Look at the earth here! How pretty everything is! Look at the grass and the trees, the flowers and all the animals.

Can you pick out the elephant and the Lions?

How did this beautiful garden come to be? Well, let's see how God got the earth ready for us.. First,God made green grass to cover the land.and he made all kinds of small plants and bushes and trees.

These growing things help to make the earth pretty.But they do more than that.Many of them also give us foods that taste very good. God later made fish to swim in the water and birds to fly in the sky.

God also made dogs and cats and horses; big animals and small animals.What animals live near your home? Shouldn't we be glad that God made all these things for us.

According to Genesis 1:11-25; 2:8,9.

Bible stories: What makes Moses ran away from Egypt

 Bible Stories:Look at Moses he is running away from Egypt.Some men are chasing him.

Do you know why they want to kill Moses?

Let's see if we can find out.

Moses grew up in the house of Phar'aoh,who is the ruler of Egypt.He became a very wise and great man.Moses knew that he was not an Egyptian, but that his real parents were Israelite slaves.

So, reaching one day, when he was 40 years old,Mose M decided to go to see how his people were getting to along.

Bible Stories: It was terrible how they were being treated.He saw an Egyptian beating an Israelite slave.Moses looked around,a an when he didn't see anybody that is watching,he hit the Egyptian, and the Egyptian died.

Bible Stories: Then Moses hid his body in the sand.The next day Moses went out to see his people again.He thought he could help them so they wouldn't have to be slaves anymore.

But he saw two Israelites men fighting,so Moses said to the one who was in the wrong: ''why are you beating up your brother?'

Bible Stories: The man said: 'Who made you our ruler and Jude?Are you going to kill me just as you killed that Egyptian?'

Moses now became afraid.He knew that people had found out what he had done to the Egyptian.Even Phar'aoh heard about it,a an he sent men to kill Moses.

That is why Moses had to run away from Egypt.

Bible Stories: So,whe  Moses left Egypt,he went far away to the land of Midian.There he met the family of Jethro,a an he married one of his daughters named Zipporah.

Moses became a shepherd and took care of Jethro's sheep.For 40 years he lived in the land of Midian.He was now 80 years of age.Then one day,while Moses was taking care of Jethro's sheep an amazing thing happened that changed Moses whole life.
