Save Your Marriage
Do you find yourself feeling anxiety, depression, or hopelessness over your marriage or relationship? You are not alone at all. Due to all the people I know and even some parts of my own marriage, I decided it was time to offer some free and paid help to struggling couples. Today, the pressure is really on when it comes to economic struggles as well as unfaithfulness and frustration in the marriage union. There are marital "agreements" coming forth which allow an "out" to people who decide they "just can't take it anymore" in their relationship. Maybe this is a good thing and maybe not.
My point is, it's very easy for someone to advise you to stay or leave your relationship; after all, they aren't the ones in it. After years of struggle, I have done some research and am still doing some, that offers humorous and yet practical insight into how the other person thinks, perceives, and reacts to various situations.
I've taken the information I've learned, and compiled some of the most crucial parts of it into a free report. The title is catchy but also definitely promising to couples who are ready to call it "quits" on matrimony and give up hope of ever having any "bliss" come from their partnership.
Whether you are newlyweds or long-time strugglers, this information will give you a new avenue to consider in your relationship, will save you nights of restlessness, and probably help you prevent the "D" word from happening. Let us help you.
Sound like it might be a last chance of hope for you to reclaim what you once had or achieve what you now want? Hey, it was worth doing at one point...isn't it worth saving? Let me know if this interests you.

true shepherd vs hireling
Over the years, I have had many pastors, mentors, spiritual leaders come into and go out of my life.
Recently, a dear friend of mine pointed out that there is a difference between a shepherd set over you in authority by God Himself, vs a self-promoting hireling facsimile of a shepherd or leader.
One really good way to make sure you are not with a hireling, is to observe how he or she treat other people. I had someone say to me at one time, "I care mostly for my inner group of people and I will not take the time to hear the cry of those "outside." As I heard that, I thought about the Shepherd, Jesus, who taught about how a true shepherd would leave his main flock of sheep just to seek out the one that was lost. I'd say anything other than this attitude, would denote a hireling view on things.
Thankfully, I'm under a true shepherd placed over me by God Himself. Sometimes, this shepherd doesn't understand me or agree with me, but I know that when I wander astray, he will seek me out to restore me to the fold. Even when I had strayed for a while, this person continued to remind me that he was there and loved me and was ready for me to return home whenever I was led to. He never forced me to come back to the family. He just informed me about what was going on while I was away. One day, when I'd exhausted all resources, I once again read about the happenings in the family, and I decided to run home to papa. Just like with God, papa wasn't angry with me and he welcomed me home as the prodigal child that I was.
I'm very grateful that some shepherds understand the heart of Father and do their best to live according to that, treating others with the same love that God Himself does.
Blessings,
