Dear Lady, marriage is blissful and nature has equipped you to be a homemaker, family nutritionist and many other roles you hold in the house.
That is more than going out and earning money or contributing financially to the house.
Isn’t that man’s job?
But you will gain nothing in being a full housewife in this 21st century than
– a closed mouth
– a closed destiny
– loss of self-identity and
– boredom
Because the man who is paying the piper will dictate the tunes (he is a human being)
But we will those who did it and are glad for it?
How many of them? Probably one of twenty.
Finally, you can contribute to the house and still be a great wife with a voice, an identity and a life.
The two can coexist.
If you agree, share. Comment and like.

From Government to Marriage: The Trust Problem
Recently Nigeria passed New Tax Acts which have been causing a lot of uproars of social spa e
On paper, the new tax act is good; it exempts a lot of Nigerians, and it is progressive in nature, but do you know why many are sceptical of its implementation?
One is misinformation engineered by a minority of people who have one grouse or another to grind with the government of the day, and a lack of trust. I will focus on the latter.
Successive Nigerian Governments have not been known to be good custodians of our commonwealth.
They have stolen. They have killed and they have destroyed.
An average Nigerian has zero trust in his government because he has been let down repeatedly over and over again.
He has been told to endure while his government and their cronies waste resources all around.
Why should he now trust this one when he, the government, has not shown any iota of change from what his predecessors are known for?
He is like that serial cheating husband who suddenly develops a plan of romantic activities for his wife when he hasn’t shown a clear way of repenting.
Dear, don’t ever come to a point in your marriage where your partner can’t trust you again.
A point where you are just in the union just for being in it’s sake.
A point where every step of yours is misconstrued as an avenue to more abuses and irresponsibility.
And trust me, this point of total mistrust is not from one-off mistakes, it is arrived at from repeated mistakes.
Don’t ever let trust go out of your marriage for it is the currency of the union.
Thanks for reading.
God bless Nigeria.
God bless our marriage in JesusShare this:

What sacrifices have you made in life?
Hmmmm!
Three months to my wedding, I got a job far away from home. In fact, about 8 hours from home. Ogbomoso, Oyo State to Benin Edo State.
Well, the job pays more than what I currently had then. Actually 3× of the then salary.
If I stay in my current job, my then fiance turned wife now, monthly income is 3× mine and I have to man up.
The problem has never been my wife earning more than I did but rather closing the income gap between us. So I took the job
The job is a farm manager position in a remote village in Benin, Edo State. No network, no light, no road. So bad that if I have to communicate effectively with my fiance, without interruption, I will have to spend ₦1000 as transport fare to where there is good network. After the day work on farm that runs from 8am till 4pm.
Besides, almost all the guys there smoke indian hemp.
The first question I ask myself is; carrer-wise, did this make sense? How will I know of emerging trends in the market?
Two, is this the type of environment, I want to raise my children? A community of Indian hemp smokers and unkempt hairs?
Three, let’s say my fiance resigned from her job, what job have I secure for her or what money did I have to give her to start a business?
If I said my wife should be at home, and I will be visiting monthly, it still doesn’t make economic sense. Why? Because, I will have to travel on Friday evening, all things being equal, I should get home by 11pm. By Saturday, I will sure visit my friends and parents and by Sunday afternoon, I am on way back in order to resume on month. The transport fee will cost me about ₦10,000 to and fro .
I will have to drop home maintenance fee for my wife and will also eat at my workplace. After everything, what will be left will be ₦5000. Why this stress?
What sacrifices have you made in life?
After all these introspection, I discovered that the cons far outweigh the pros, a month to my wedding, I resigned and return to my former workplace which this saying in mind, let the worse that want to happen happened, God is on the throne.
Praise God, the bad did not happen talk less of the worst and I joined my wife and both of us combined our little resources together and live happily after.
Now, tell me what sacrifices have you made in your life?

Why Your Mother-in-law hates you
One of the intense battle I will always advised Singles to avoid by all means, is in-laws battle and hatred and my advice had always been, ‘if they don’t like you, don’t marry their son/daughter.’
I know you can prayed them for a change of heart but I date you to say, free your time to pray on better things in marriage.
But what could really be the problem, you mother-in-law hates you?
You may have incurred your mother-in-law hatred because of the following:
You have what she didn’t have when you married. You see, human beings generally hate the good things they don’t have.
The amount of love, care and affection their son is giving you which she didn’t receive from your father-in-law when she too was your age, and marital status may be reason she didn’t vibe to you.
She may be demonically possession especially if she is an unbeliever and you are a believer. Believe it or not, demonic possession is real and unbelievers are devil and minions, abode.
You being a Christian and with the virtues attached will naturally repel an unbeliever’s way of life and thinking.
You didn’t hate them but according to what Peter said in his epistle that, they are amazed that you didn’t join them in their ungodly behaviours, now instead of them to praise you, they slander you.
Thirdly, you are the cause. We are in the era where intending spouse have already hated their mother-in-law, when they have even have a suitor yet. More like an in-built hate.
Some of you were shown love, care and respect when you meet her but because of what popular media have told you about in-laws or because of what your own mom experienced with hers. You locked up from receiving love.

4 Things That Are Not Needed For A Happy Home.
When Grey and Tacha were courting. As a lover-in-arm, they used to imagine many beautiful things and scenarios.
A perfect, never annoying partner!
Breakfast in bed!
Cute kids!
Annual vacation in Hawaii!
24/7 romance, catch-up, love SMSes
Infact, their courtship is one of it kind and the love, the care and the attention, are both mutual and obvious, to all and sundry.
Theirs was a perfect man and woman planning, strategizing, praying and hoping for a perfect ‘happily lived after’ experiences in marriage.
Who wouldn’t want a good thing? But their imagination soon turned into realities two weeks in marriage when Grey shouted at Tacha.
Pardon me for a little digress but most singles nowadays is majoring and planning on things that aren’t needed for a happy and bliss home.
Permit me to say, YOU DON’T NEED A PERFECT SPOUSE TO HAVE A HAPPY HOME. Number one, we are all faulty. By nature, no one is perfect. Therefore, your search will be long and 99.99% fruitless but perhaps, you mistakenly find one, trust me you don’t need to marry such one for you to have a blissful union and you won’t ever have one with him/her.
Your sure ticket to a godly home is still with an imperfect human being.
Caveat; imperfection doesn’t mean you should roll up with the ungodly and unbelievers.
Two, YOU DON’T NEED A PERFECT WEEDING.
Elaborate wedding parties, floral flower girls, exquisite men in suit, live music band, ambient lighting and hall, etc are all good but with or without all of these, your marriage can still be great, funny and Godly.
Therefore, prepare for marriage than for wedding and LOVE IN ACTION – 31 PRINCIPLES FOR COURTSHIP AND BEYOND and THE TEARLESS COURTSHIP were written to prepare you for a glorious, easy and happy marital journey, post wedding.
Furthermore, THERE IS NO PERFECT TIME TO MARRY. You will always have one excuse or the other not to marry.
Gas prices will always go up. Mortgage will not down. Cost of living will always appreciate and people in capitol don’t allow bothered.
Time will never be prim and proper for you to marry but once the timing is right and the necessary things have fallen into the right places. Go and marry*
And lastly, YOU DON’T NEED STRONG PENIS AND TIGHT VAGINA for a happy home.
Many aspiring couples think sexual enjoyment in marriage is by how long the instruments for it is. What you need for a joyous sexual experiences in marriage is someone with a healthy and faithful private parts.
An active penis or a tight vagina without the fear of God attached to it, will make you cry, if it didn’t give you STDs.
Thank you for reading. Comment, share and like.

Love In Colour was supposed to launch in Easter Monday but right on Resurrection Sunday, I was hospitalized hence the postponement.
Right beside the bed wherein I was lied is a married man attended to, by his elder daughter (probably gotten two daughters).

Because it’s very obvious the man was a good jolly, family-oriented man.
None is been forced to do anything.
With them, you will love good marriage.
