Love In Action and In Truth....

1 Corinthians 13:4- 8 NIV (4) Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. (5) It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. (6) Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. (7) It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. (8) Love never fails....

Romans 12:9 NIV (9) Love must be sincere.....

1 John 4:18 NIV (18) There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear.....

1 Peter 4:8 NIV (8) Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV (13) And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Romans 13:10 NIV (10) Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore, Love Is The Fulfillment of The Law.

Can we honestly say our love in action (past and present) fits the biblical description, if not, how can we modify our behavior?

"It's 10 years and still going, day by day, moment by moment. Lessons along the way some harder some easier. But we're here together, not because we need to be, but because we want too."--Boris Kodjoe

"My ex-husband said the reason he cheated on me was that he wanted VARIETY. I thank him for that lesson, because I have brought variety to my marriage with Bo (NEW HUSBAND) and it truly IS the spice of our life! I vary our activities. I vary our fun. I vary our intimacy. I make up silly (but EFFECTIVE) holidays like Husband Appreciation Day, Free Grope Friday, and regular date nights. I leave love notes in unexpected places and at unexpected times. I make his lunch, serve him dinner, and make sure he smiles and laughs every day. I honor him, spoil him, and treat him like the KING he is, and I make sure he knows that he is LOVED and APPRECIATED. And none of these things has ANYTHING to do with CHEATING."--Gail Tennyson Hicks


The road to marriage and a good relationship is not easy. How can we recognize a good relationship and/or make it better?

There comes a time when we want a specific relationship so bad that we develop temporary attributes to sway a potential love interest our way. We call this Pseudo Support. 

Can this behavior corrupt a relationship from start?

where did we wrong?

Dear Baby,

Are you happy? If, so are you happy with me? If, not where did I go wrong? Clearly, I haven't done or been doing what I did to capture your eye or heart. We are back to being strangers and I've lost my best friend. Everything that defines me in you I have lost sight of. The strength that was for me is no longer strong for me The intelligence that was on my side is now turned away and against me. Where, when and how did I go so horribly wrong? More importantly how do I get you and all of that makes the apple of my eye back? Where did I go wrong Beloved?  My re-actions to your actions was not the right way to do it or to go about.  Unfortunately, it took you to walk away from and fall into the arms of someone else to make understand how you made this world in which we dwell bearable. How do I make it right once more? Because, I need and want to be your man 100% transparent. whether it stands on it's own or no.  Good  bad or otherwise. Your respect for me is so key, because if If I can't get that, you may as well stay with Brotha. I ask you to follow me as I follow God because I want be a great leader for you. Also, I need you to let me be a man....a smart man....a man of unique quality. It's only one me. My character is one of a kind and that makes me attractive to you. Agree with me please, if I'm right. Correct me me if and when I'm wrong, I need you to be able to take the same correction because my sin is no bigger than yours.  You are and will always be able to hold my heart. No matter what or who you're with the sun will always rise and set with to me. I love you deeply and sincerely. Can you ever truly forgive me?


Always,
Curtis LaMar Givens, Sr.

For some people, Monogamy is considered blasphemy. The idea of being with one partner triggers an allergic reaction causing them to retreat and/or seek additional companionship. Dear Baby™ Wants to Know:


What’s your philosophy concerning monogamy? 
In my opinion the decision to be monogamous depends on your up bringing and the relationship you may or may not have with your parents and with the Lord your God. What one may have seen or experienced as a  child shapes ones perspective on being monogamous. Also ones options in a relationship good, bad and otherwise also shapes your outlook on being with that on person.  .

How important is romance in a relationship?

Tuesday, January 20, 2015

dear baby,

re-educate me on the way to Love you best. 
re-introduce  your body and mind to me.  
the experience and joy of loving you fully has escaped me and I need to know again.
I relish in the delight it brings you to be satisfied and well pleased.
I implore you to share with me your fantasy and your preferences that makes you enchanting. 
Give me the lessons that simply makes your heart sing.
Grant me the secrets that put a different stride in your step and smugness in your smile.
Allow me beloved the best of you in more ways than are allowed to the average. 
My goal is to Love completely.

Dear Baby™



Out of a thought. Out of a feeling. Out of my heart. The words that transpire from the inspirations of beautiful things seen,heard or felt are meant to instill positive emotions in the heart, mind and soul. Dear Baby is every woman.It started out as a form of expression from a very shy 12 year old individual who was looking for someone to Love in romantic ways.The words and expression morphed in a mature way targeted as a guide to the fellas to show the woman in their life they could be romantic. From there Dear Baby  grabbed the attention of that woman that was looking to be Loved, but was denied for whatever reason. The words Dear Baby would serve as a greeting to those of them who still Loved romance and all it's possibilities. 

Dear Baby,

Although you're not by my side at this moment.
Your presence is evident in my heart,
Reflections of you are present with every thought of you,
The Love my heart holds for you is unmatched by anyone.
You have become my fantasy in every way. 
The regard, the support and the respect you give me is why you hold my heart in your hands. 
The Love, the prayers and the good cooking is why I'll stay with you always. :).

Dear Baby is romance, is Love, is a beautiful sexual encounter, is a secret admirer, is a slow dance to a favorite Love song, is a beautiful gesture just because,is a smile when you see her because she's still gorgeous to you.
Fellas Love your woman with all you have in you because you are unique and throw out the window anything that'll stop that.
Ladies let them.

Sincerely, 
Curtis LaMar Givens, Sr.
