Ep.34 All Wrapped Up: 'My Thoughts & A Recap on Weh Di Real Man Dem Deh (Part 2)?'

Episode Summary

In this All Wrapped Up episode, I do a recap of what stood out for me from this week's discussions around the topic, 'Weh Di Real Man Dem Deh?' or in English, 'Where Are The Real Men?' and I add some of my own thoughts. I also share a discussion I had with one of my listeners who asked a question related to the topic. 

Key Takeaways

  • It's okay to have a prayer list of what we want in a man but what God wants should supersede our desires (2:54)
  • It's  not that the man should be perfect. It's that if there are some areas,  he must be willing to say, you know, I have an issue here and I'm gonna  deal with it (7:08)
  • We  need to be willing to offer him support where he falls short because  this is what God has called us to be helpers to our partners (11:00)
  • Let's get knowledge because without it we can be destroyed emotionally, socially, physically, and so on (11:53)
  • As women we sometimes want the man to redeem us but Jesus wants to be the one to heal us (18:59)

Top Quotes

  • As  women we can be strong sometimes, you know, and we don't necessarily  recognize that we're causing the man to go back into his shell (4:08)
  • We have a long list but is that at least lining up with who the man really ought to be? (9:24)
  • Let  us not curse ourselves because the fact that you went through hurt  doesn't mean that God doesn't want to bless you with something beautiful  and marriage is beautiful once it's committed onto God (14:05)
  • If  you are pained, you know, in need of healing, in need of deliverance,  you may need to receive the healing and deliverance long before you go  into marriage (16:13)
  • God wants us to be healthy and whole, to trust him to take us through a process so that he can ready us for marriage (17:54)
  • You  stay in it, you wallow in it and then you look for a husband to be your  Savior...you will be depending on him to be a savior and not God, not  Jesus (19:49)
