Ep.29 All Wrapped Up: 'My Thoughts & A Recap on Weh Di Real Man Dem Deh (Part 1)?'

Episode Summary

In  this All Wrapped Up episode, I do a recap of what stood out for me from this week's discussions on 'Weh Di Real Man Dem Deh?' or in English, 'Where Are The Real Men?' and I add some of my own thoughts in relation to some of the mistakes we make as women. I also give tips on how we can evaluate the quality of our intimate relationships. 

Key Takeaways

• A  man who has no relationship with God usually doesn't understand His  principles in order to be able to apply them the way he should where  relationship and marriage is concerned (1:43)
• Humility is a key attribute of Jesus and it is therefore an attribute that men and women should exhibit consistently (4:23)
• When  we allow fear, doubt and insecurities to overtake us, it means we are  not allowing ourselves to be taught or to pursue God's perspective  (8:09)
• He's  being perfected by God too, so we need to give him room to make  mistakes  but we have to balance that with not making excuses for these  men who aren't ready for life or relationships (13:44)

Top Quotes

• The  Bible says pride comes before a fall. It also goes on to say that  rebellion is as of witchcraft. Rebellion is rooted in pride and  arrogance (4:23)
• It's  always so easy for us to say...I'm fearfully and wonderfully made...and  blurt out all of these different things about who we are. And we give  God thanks for who He is. But then when it's time now to assess a man  against those standards, we don't do it (5:08)
• Humility  is correlated with teachability. Somebody that is humble will as we say  in Jamaica, 'tek talk'. Meaning, you know, you listen more than you  speak, which is what the Word of God tells us to do (7:10)
• God has a purpose for us. And in that purpose is choosing wisely making God-based decisions, developing godly habits (16:29)
