relationship advice
When was the last time you and your spouse
had a deep conversation? A deep conversation that did not cut any corners can sometimes
be difficult to finish. It’s best that in every relationship that there is room
for transparency. Think about how much even a
30-minute, distraction-free, emotional block-busting session once per week can do
for your relationship.
Love can sweep you off your feet! You can get so caught up in wanting to tell your friends and family about your love life. It’s great to want and have someone to confide in about your relationship. Just keep in mind that you don’t have to share all the truth between you and spouse with outsiders. Here are 4 relationship topics to keep private.

But Does He Pray for You, Sis?
in blogmas2017, couple advice, marriage advice, relationship advice, relationships, by Linda B Hurd, December 14, 2017
I
have found myself having conversations with a lot of ladies who are young and
older about how they love a quote-unquote God-fearing man. While there is

in advice, encouragement, marriage advice, motivational, relationship advice, by Linda B Hurd, March 27, 2017
Being
in love is truly one thing, but sticking it through the end is another.
Relationships can truly take us to that level cloud nine John Legend once sung
about and they can take us to low levels of depression (that’s only if we allow
them too.)
When you and your spouse can not seem to see eye to eye it can be difficult
to find someone to talk to about what you are facing in your relationship. Not
everyone you choose to vent to will understand your point of view on your
spouse or why you are still trying to find a resolution to stick it through.
