As with any book I currently read, with the exception of a few (I plan to catch up), I tend to either give a review or jot down and essentially blog key points, tags, questions I pose, or drop golden nuggets of information I deem invaluable!
Here are a few lines I pulled from the book to share:
Part One: The Lady
There is nothing worse than giving the right thing to the wrong person
A positive self-image is necessary in order to procure a healthy relationship with others
The thing you want MOST is the thing that you must give!
The antidote is made from the venom
A good wife is a diamond, a treasure that must be mined. Anything else is just a rhinestone
Words are a powerful tool for evil. Beware!
Any womanizer will tell you you his hook is in his conversation.
The enemy is at work when anyone uses words to deceive you, mislead you, or cause you pain.
Behind every great man is a woman
It takes a woman to help a man meet his goals
Part Two: Her Lover
Friendship makes a marriage worth fighting for. Sex lasts mere minutes, a few hours at best, but friendship is for a lifetime!
What makes a lover wonderful is when he can kiss the body and reach down deeper to kiss the soul
In marriage, a man and wife are partners, lovers, friends. It is a bond so powerful, so special, that it is meant to last forever
Encouragement yields results
Resolve conflict but don't abuse each other with words
It is dangerous to refuse to forgive a truly repentant person. You might later have to reap the ridigity of your own judgement.
Pray to God for the strength to forgive him and the patience to teach him.
We enrich the one we love, but we do it by spending ourselves in them
It is far easier for a man to give his money, his body, his advice, but when he gives his heart; he is terrified
It is not her size that makes him vulnerable it is her importance to him
What a man doesn't realize is that a woman's love is a shelter, protection from the wind.
Love is not a monologue it is a dialogue
Make sure the room in your life is well lit and easy to see
A man doesn't have to fear virtuous woman. No reason for him to be guarded. Her intentions are clearly seen. She has a commitment to assisting him, completing him, renewing him. He has to value her
A weary soldier never wants to come home to a fight. He has fought his way to you
Part Three: Her Lord
Run as fast as you can, walk if you must, in fact crawl if necessary to get to the Word of God
Caution! God is at work.
Maximize opportunities so you do not marry out of financial need
A successful man is attracted to a woman of worth and not women of weight
God blesses what you think, but he praises what you do
Eros love is no replacement for Godly love
Of course, and with great certainty, there are other lines in the book that are useful, enlightening, and/or comforting. For a greater value or understanding of the lines I've pulled I'll more than likely spend some time individually blogging each one! Those further intrigued -get the book and read it for yourself!
XOXO,
