Marriage Is The Hardest Thing I’ve Ever Done!
Let me be honest, open, transparent and vulnerable today, marriage is the hardest thing I’ve ever done as a man. Marriage has revealed parts of me that I didn’t even know existed. It has exposed how selfish I can be, how pride can creep in, and how much work I still need to do on myself. Mar

​I’ve made some bad choices, I’m been selfish and I was sure in my thirties I would be different. Recently I’ve been feeling this pull to work on my relationship with God, I have voiced this to my partner and (maybe due to his age) it goes in one ear and out the other. I decided I couldn’t be sexua

The Hardest Truth I Had to Swallow About Love

The hardest person I ever had to forgive was myself.
I used to think healing meant forgiving everyone else. But after spending time with God and honestly looking at my heart, I realized I was still carrying anger toward myself. I blamed myself for decisions, trusted the wrong people, and questioned why I didn't see things sooner. Those thoughts
