You Didn’t Cook Today

This episode is not quite what you may think.

It has very little to do with cooking and a lot to do with being ready.

You will enjoy your life more and have time for the things that are important to you if you learn to build systems. The earlier you learn them the better. They :

Save
You
Stress
Time
Energy &
Money

See how I started learning about system building and active preparation as a single woman in this episode.

Scripture References :
Titus 2:4-5 KJV
4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. 

Proverbs 31:15
15 She gets up while it is still night;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her female servants.

Proverbs 31:21
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

Proverbs 31:27
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

My “please don’t come for me” disclosures 😂
1. I mention that I bought a house to “bring something to the table when I got married” this is just a personal desire that I had. This is not  gospel or necessary. I’ve always wanted to marry someone that I could build wealth with so I was preparing for that by buying real estate. You are the prize. Any man you marry should come with as much or MORE ‘buy-in’ as you do for your future together.  Especially since he will be the head of the home. That’s the type of man I got. 

2. I mention asking my husband about “why men cheat on seemingly perfect women”. I also mention that he said that women underestimate the power of catering to their man- treating him with honor & respect (whatever that means to that specific man), doing things for him, the home and children, supporting his dreams etc. 

Please know that this does not in any way excuse anyone that cheats. It is never the other spouse’s fault when someone cheats. Some men cheat simply because they are insecure, prideful, selfish or morally weak. 

I mention what I mentioned only to give you examples of how you can attempt to “affair-proof” your marriage by building it on a foundation of God’s word. 

God’s word tells the wife to respect her husband. Why? Because it’s important to men. God’s word tells women to be keepers of the home -directly or in-directly. Why? Because it’s important to men. God gave us a blueprint for harmony. 

There are homes where the husband cooks & does things in the home and that’s wonderful. The important thing is that the couple be completely transparent with one another about their wishes and expectations  & AGREE on what works in their home. 

At the end of the day, build your home on God’s word. With it as your foundation, you can’t go wrong. Oh, and marry someone that COMMITS to doing everything by the book- the word of God. 

That’s all. Love you !
