3 S’s To Stop Doing During Conversations | @chicangeorge @trackstarz
Many times, our actions when communicating with our spouse can cause a series of problems. Often times, we don’t realize we are doing them. It can be from habits we picked up growing up or our subconscious defensive mode that we go into. Here are 3 things to be careful doing when having conversations with your […]
Focus On Today’s Love, Not Yesterday’s Love | @chicangeorge @trackstarz
Lamentations 3:22-23– “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” This is an excellent verse to show God’s true love. God never gives us anything old. He always gives us fresh love, blessings, mercy and grace everyday! If we spend […]
Cut Your Grass | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
We have always heard the term “Grass always looks greener on the other side.” This saying is referring to envying things that others may have. For some its material possessions and for others it can be relationships. For the sake of the series, we will be focusing on marriages. Many of us look at other marriages […]
Complain vs. Criticism | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
In marriages, there will be a lot of complaining and criticism involved. The problem is understanding the difference between the two and knowing which one is productive. When we complain, it’s allowing us to voice how we feel towards our spouse about a situation. When we show criticism, we are telling them what they are […]
Made Not Born | @chicangeorge @trackstarz
We often hear the quote that “Leaders aren’t born, they are made.” The same can be said about soul mates. The term itself is rather a controversal topic, but for this post, we will focus on the idea of soul mates. Even if you have a “love at first sight” experience with your spouse, you must […]
Emotions, Effort, Excellence | Marriage Mondays| @chicangeorge @trackstarz
I remember being young and hearing the hook/chorus of H-town’s “Emotions.” It went on to say “Emotions make you cry sometimes, emotions make you sad sometimes, emotions make you glad sometimes, but most of all they make you fall in love.” Even though I was a pre teen (I’m trying not to tell my age), […]
Give What You Want To Get | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
Many of us grew up living by the Golden Rule: “Treat others as you would want them to treat you.” Not only is this saying somewhat biblical, it’s a life lesson that you can carry into relationships and marriage. As we get older and/or married, it somewhat shifts a bit. Many times, when your spouse doesn’t […]
Personality Test | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
A very interesting exercise that you can do with your spouse is to take a personality test together. By taking it, you find out which of the four personalities you could be ( sanguine is optimistic and social, choleric is short-tempered or irritable, melancholic is analytical and quiet and phlegmatic is relaxed and peaceful). It can be a […]
Watch the DRIFT in your Marriage | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
Similar to our #52verses52weeks post this week, we are continuing the theme of drifting. Drifting away from your spouse can be easy if you let it happen. When we are not focused on their wants, needs and/or love language… we can slowly drift away from the relationship. Here are some things that we should […]
W.A.L.K. Away | @Chicangeorge @Trackstarz
Many Times in marriage, there will be arguments that will or can become huge problems. Things could possibly be said or done that can be hard to take back. When you feel like the situation is becoming out of hand, you should W.A.L.K. away. Of course, W.A.L.K. is a acronym and of course… I’m going […]
