Are You Pampering Him At All?

'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh' Matthew 19:5' 

Hello everyone, how are you all doing? Suprised right lol well this blog is not all about fashion, and also had some suggestions from some of you my lovely readers to add something to it and I thought about it and decided to add this segment to the blog. So my dearies welcome to the first edition of 'Love Matters' where we would talk about love and relationship, marriage, kids and family, mind you I would really appreciate your wonderful comments and also contributions too.

I am not perfect far from it, when it comes to marriage I am still learning, I remember when I was still single I was always interested in marriage matters, I layed my hands on every material that had to do with marriage, digesting it thoroughly infact some of my friends then used to nickname me 'Dr Mrs Love' lol cos some of them come to me for relationship advice.

Are you pampering your man at all? Be it your husband or fiance. Yes men love pampering too don't think pampering is just for us women. Men want to know they are loved and cared for. They want to know they are your number 1. You want to pamper him more? Then pay attention to the following:

 
WAYS OF PAMPERING HIM

Respect: 
Do you have respect for your man? He deserves it, A man wants to know you would put him first above all else, he needs to know he has your attention when you are having a conversation. If you respect him you wont just invite someone to your home without telling him. You cannot love a man you don't respect.


Love: 
Am sure you say oh but I love him and he should tell you he does, how often do you tell him you love him? Let him know, let him feel, let him think you love him with all your heart. Not in words alone but also by your actions. You cant say I love you but yet not attentive to his needs. Show him love today.

Food: 
They say the way to a man's heart is through food and yes it is true, a man loves a woman who knows how to cook good food, yes its not as if they cant get food to eat in the restaurants but they want you to treat them with good food, they know its cooked with love, homely food with an extra touch. Learn new recipes, cook something different for him once in a while and serve his food. I mean my husband knows how to cook but he still wants me to do it sometimes cos he knows he would get something special. Yes I know we might be busy with our career and all that but our man deserves to be pampered with good food.



Sex: 
Yes I went there lol, I would say sex is a cement that glues marriage together trust me if there is no sexual intimacy between couples then such a marriage is in trouble. Know what turns him on remember men respond more to what they see while women responds emotionally or by what they feel. Don't wait for him to make the first move, initiate sex once in a while, create a sexophoric atmosphere now thats my word lol. Before he even comes back from work or his place of business send him sexy text messages to prepare him for whats coming later on. Captivate his heart, who says lovemaking is restricted to the bedroom alone, be adventurous (please not in front of your kids though lol).

Gifts:
Yes they love gifts too, it doesn't have to be his birthday or your wedding anniversary before you give him a gift no matter how small or big it is. He knows its the thought that counts.


What do you think my lovelies, I would love to read your own contributions too, tell me how do you pamper your man? Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks for stopping by.

'Judge not, that ye be not judged Matthew 7:1'

Quite a while everyone, how are y'all doing? Hope great? How has your week been so far? Am so sorry I know this is a late post the week is always a busy one for me attending to kids, taking care of my number one baby my own Deltan King, taking Sienna to school, attending to customers too, in all I bless God for giving me the strenght and the ability too.

Sometimes we are quick to point our fingers at others when they go wrong, infact we start pouring out our sentences for each offence when in actual fact we do exactly the same thing the other person has done, the bible says you should first remove the beam that is in your own eye before trying to remove  the tiny speck in your brothers eye. We have no right to judge someone else especially if you have not walked in their shoes, everyone has different measure of grace bestowed upon them yours is quite different from the other person. Instead of judging why not pray for the person, if you can't call them to order. Remember the same measure you use in judging others the same would be measured unto you.

Yea I went there again, mixed two different prints, when I bought this skirt I said to myself I have to mix it up with a stripe top or a jumper, since its officially autumn/winter the weather is not anyones friend I mean its a bit cold did I just say a bit it is cold lol. I make sure my coat is always with me cos British weather is not reliable at all one minute its a bit cold the next its actually freezing. I made sure I stayed in the same colour zone didnt want too much clash of colours since the skirt is a red one.

My sister said my bump looks like a football lol, what do you think? Hope you enjoy the pics.

'Seek ye the Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near Isaiah 55:6'

Good day my beautiful people, how are you doing? Hope you had a great weekend? How is work? school? business?. Hope everything is goin on well, its a new week, a wonderful week actually, a blessed one too. As you have entered this week our God would grant you peace of mind knowing that He is in control.

Having a personal relationship with God is very vital, you cant replace going to church with knowing God one on one. You have to live for the truth, ask God for guidance so that He will lead you aright. Relationship with God is what counts nothing else matters really. The level of grace you enjoy from God determines how far you will go in life. Are you living your life for God, lets examine ourselves, we might be able to deceive other or even ourselves but we cant deceive God. The bible says God knows all those that are His and we know who we really worship. As we seek God more, as we desire to have a stronger relationship with Him I pray that He will draw us closer to Him in Jesus name.

Don't know why I just love the colour blue lol, and yes this shoe has been worn over and over again don't really care lol I think its one of my favourite shoes Got the bodycon dress from Dorothy Perkins and I paired it with my mint H&M blazer cant seem to get enough of it.

Hope you like the pics.

'Therefore he siad unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the Lord our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. so they build and prospered. ' 2 Chronicles 14:7' 

Hello everyone, how are you all doing? Happy weekend too. I am fine, so sorry this is a late post sometimes sitting in front of my laptop is like a huge task to me lol.

I know we have challenges, things we want God to do for us, prayers that aren't answered yet and when we are asked to pray for others we might drag our feet sometimes. Have you ever been in a church or prayer meeting and when we are asked to pray for others you dont really hear shouts, or screams but once they ask us to pray for ourselves oh we want to bring the roof down lol, been there done that Lord have mercy. Prayer for others can be a huge task especially when you have loads of prayer points for yourself. Intercession is motivated by concern, love and sacrifice. During intercession you have to lose yourself and become someone else, carry someone else's burden but be rest assured that when you do it according to God's will He will answer yours too. He wont leave you dry no thats not our God. Take time out today to pray for someone in need, pray for that woman across your street who seems to be struggling on her own as a single mum, pray for that guy who needs a job inorder to sustain his family, pray for others first sincerely and with faith in your heart and know that God would lift you up beyond your comprehension.

See you at the top.

Havent been wearing trousers or jeans since I got pregnant especially for my growing bump becos all of mine doesnt fit anymore, I do know there is maternity belt but don't know why not really my thing so when I saw this one online from Asos I know this was meant to be lol, Made up my mind would be getting maternity trousers or jeans that would give me maximum comfort. Paired with my green check top from Asos too and my lovely cornflower blue blazer from H&M. Hope you like the pics.

Trend Alert: Plaid

'For in many things we offend all, if any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body James 3:2'

Plaid is virtually worn by everyone in all walks of life, everyday people, celebrities, kids etc. You might decide to either dress it up or down, casual or chic, elegant or sophisticated too. Plaid is a timeless piece. Yea I know sometimes when some of us think of plaid we think of school uniforms lol not anymore.

When it comes to a print thats classic and top trending at the same time, nothing is more spot on than everything plaid. It's a pattern that's become a staple in every fashionista's wardrobe but this year, it's been reinvented yet still true to it's grunge roots.

Plaid is a versatile and fun piece to have in your wardrobe. A pleated plaid skirt paired with a sweater or button down can easily create a preppy look or when worn as a button down and paired with distressed jeans can be made into a totally laid back outfit. This trend is perfect for that extra added punch into any look and it can also balance out and tone down and dressy outfit. The key to wearing plaid is by pairing it with neutral and simple pieces or items that are in the same tone and hue as the print. Matching plaid with other plaid patterns may seem tricky but all it takes is a little creativity and a whole lot of confidence. Check out the slideshow below for more tips and tricks on how to wear this trend and where you can grab a piece of your own!

What do you think about this trend is it a Yay or Nay for you? Let me know your thoughts.

Take care
