It is not enough to tell Christians, “Desire the gift of tongues.” (As Scripture says you very well can). No.
We go on to say:
- If you don’t speak in tongues, it’s because you don’t want to (you’re the problem)
- Just say anything that comes to your mind; you can’t be wrong
No relationship is worth it, if you have to sacrifice what God has asked you to do or deny the nudgings of your heart to appease the other party and maintain the "balance" of the relationship. Such relationships void of authenticity may just have served their purpose.

There are some things that’ll happen to you in life and you just won’t be able to explain it. Sometimes they’re good things and other times, they’re not. You’ll know what happened but you just won’t understand it.
Just some random thought on my mind.
PLEASE ! Don’t marry or be married out of pity, sympathy or pressure of any kind. Ensure that both parties are WILLING AND SURE ! without any form of cohesion, manipulation or sentiments.
Later, in your moment of truth, when push finally comes to shove, those pressuring you will not be there. When reality dawns, and life hits, you may become bitter and resentful at your spouse and those who urged you on. But the truth of the matter is that it was always up to you to decide. So, save your self the hassle, Think well, Pray well and decide freely and squarely. And be ready to face up to YOUR DECISION. I have pastored for not too long, just a little over 10 years, and I have seen a few things. May the LORD help us. In Jesus’ name.
It’s worth putting your ego aside. It’s okay to be yourself, it’s okay to be vulnerable, it’s okay to be open minded. It’s okay. There’s so much beauty on the other side of pride and ego, allow yourself to experience it.
