advertisement She Didn't Steal Your Man, He Was Already Hers In the Spirit

It has always been said that men are visual creatures, but a woman can lock eyes with a well-put-together man and begin desiring him, craving him and dusting off a spot in her life for him before he's even said, "Hello" or asked her name. There is nothing as uncomfortable as wearing someone else's shoes, especially when they don't fit or don't match what you're wearing. But so many relish the smile on his face that they know they didn't put there and the way he laughs that is reserved only for her and begin plotting to get him because they want him for themselves. For some, they act like the man doesn't even have a say in the matter. If they discover that someone else is taking an interest in this particular man they make it as clear as they can to them that he’s been reserved without coming right out and saying, "He's mine, back off!"

Maybe you offered yourself to him sexually as a down-payment on the love you hoped to one day receive from him and that "one day" never came yet you’re still waiting. Perhaps after spending your last dollar on an outfit you couldn't afford and positioning yourself near the right pew where he could notice you when church let out, all you got was a generic "Good morning" like everyone else. It could be that when the Pastor preached about love, relationships and marriage you perked up and prayed that he’d look your way and finally acknowledge that you are the one for him. But weeks later they're reading his wedding announcement at the podium and you're not the bride. Of course you're furious, bitter and plotting revenge, but it’s all because you're claiming something that isn't yours and was never intended to be yours in the first place.

You might tell anybody who will listen that another woman stole your man to soothe your hurt feelings, but it isn't true. Giving him sex didn't make him yours. Having daydreams in your mind about how your lives would be together didn't make him yours either and neither did trying to keep the other women in the church away from him because God can do anything and He will draw two people together from wherever He chooses—even in another state—just to further the purpose of His Kingdom. What you need to understand is that like the key to a secret diary nobody can open his heart except the woman that God has ordained to open it. He may allow others to skirt the edges of it, flirting, giggling or dipping in for a season, but when it comes to fully disclosing his hand and giving himself totally to the woman he can marry and spend the rest of his life celebrating, a wise man who is tired of making mistakes will let God choose.

A man who is intent on growing and pleasing God comes to a point where he realizes that miscellaneous sex, random flirting and uncommitted companionship is a temporal pleasure. Sure sex is good within the confines of a marriage, but God desires him to have a woman that he can relate to outside of the bedroom too—a woman who has some right standing in His Kingdom. God has released many blessings to believers that are only visible in the spirit realm and we only need to tap into it to see and take hold of them before they manifest in the natural. That is how a true man of God finds his woman of God. He gets deep in the spirit to find out who is his. In the spirit realm you can't see a short skirt and fishnets or curly hair and diamonds dripping from her fingers—you see the heart: a heart that loves and obeys God. That's why you can't claim something that isn't yours or someone God didn't give you, because when the truth is revealed, if you’re not the one, sadly it will be all over.

When two people are designed before the foundations of the world to be together it is evident in what they're doing for the Kingdom. God brings people together to make a difference, not to satisfy lusts and hidden agendas. When he brought us together it wasn't just chance. It was from the beginning and continues to be, to do His will and to help others learn to love better. That's why when we finally came together God didn’t hesitate manifesting our purpose in each others lives.

The crux of the lesson here is that you need to make certain when you begin to meditate on any man and you allow your feelings flourish and get attached that it's because God said so, not your flesh. The flesh will get you embarrassed and have your girlfriends wondering what you were imagining that you had with this man as he walks down the aisle with another woman. Understand that there is a man out there with your name written on his spirit and you won't have to wear a certain thing or smile a certain way to get his attention. He's already yours and you just need to walk into the manifestation of that. Trust me, when a man is yours in the spirit, there is nothing that even the prettiest woman in stilettos can do about that. Now get deep in prayer, forgive who you need to forgive, let the past go and watch God do the rest!

The Silent Whisper: How "Being Remembered" Shows the Difference Between Compromise and Settling

We talk a lot about “not settling” in modern dating how we shouldn’t accept the bare minimum, how we deserve effort, consistency, and someone choosing us every day. But somewhere along the way, “not settling” started getting confused with “never compromising,” and those two things are not the same. Compromise is collaboration. Settling is self-betrayal. And nothing captures that difference more clearly than the quiet, intimate act of being remembered. The Effort I Mistook for Compatibility For a long time, I was the one who remembered. I'm the woman who'll clock your favorite snack in passing and pick it up "just because." The one who remembers your big meeting, your bad knee, the story about your childhood bedroom. I remember the song you skip every time, the way you side-eye certain foods, the exact way you take your coffee. That's how I love people—through details. And for a long time, I mistook my own effort for "compatibility." I’ve been in situat...

When Your Person is Also Your Friend

Dating today feels like it’s running on fast-forward. Everything is about instant attraction, hookups, and surface-level vibes. Rarely do people pause long enough to ask: But are we friends? See, when someone is your friend to the core, it changes everything. Friends don’t go out of their way to hurt each other. Friends know how to tell the truth...even when it’s uncomfortable  because the bond matters more than ego. That’s what’s missing in a lot of relationships right now: the foundation. If I’m your friend, I should be able to say what’s on my heart without fear that you’ll twist it, dismiss it, or run away. And let’s be real, the group chat knows more than the man in the bed. I laughed when someone told me “girls share everything in the group chat” because listen, if any of my group chats ever got leaked? Wheeeew, pray for us all. 🤭 But here’s the kicker: most of us don’t actually share it all with the man we’re sleeping with. Some women do, sure, but most don’t. We’ll c...

Put Me In

I’m not good at this game called Love. Someone once told me I’m not supposed to be good at it— I’m just supposed to take care of it when I find it or if it finds me. But every time I tried to take care of it, It didn’t take care of me. I’m not good at this game called Love. I’ve trained for years. Had a few different teammates. Revised my playbook. Yet, somehow, I’m still no good at this game. And the closest I came to winning, I realized I was running plays with a teammate Who was passing the ball to every other team in the league. 😉 I left my last team. I walked away, filed the paperwork, Hung up my old jersey for good. Sometimes leaving is the hardest move you’ll ever make. And even though my heart is healing, It still feels like I’m stuck on the sideline. But the game goes on. I built this wall around me, Told myself it was for protection, But after my divorce, I was always looking for the quickest exit— Just waiting for the moment to leave. My therapist recently chuckled and said...
