CREATE
vs CORRECT
There is a story of a young boy diligently working in his father’s workshop. Spread over the floor was a deconstructed chair that had been damaged, tools and a varied collection of mixmatched chair parts. When the young boy’s father walked in, seeing his son’s frustration, He asked “What are you working on?” With despair he replied, “I’m trying to fix this chair. It seems that nothing I’ve tried has worked.” His father chuckled slightly, and offered to help. “What is the problem?” the father asked. The young boy glared at the pieces sprawled over the floor with an obvious expression saying, “The chair is broken, and everything that I’ve tried to fix it has not worked.” Placing his hand on his son’s shoulder the father said, That is your situation, not your problem. Your problem is simple – you need a chair to sit in. “Your efforts have been focused on correcting something that was broken. Instead, create a new chair.” Can you relate with the young boy? Definitely so...we all can. With this being the beginning of a new year, we encourage you to focus your efforts on creating versus correcting. A major part of this skill requires us to first be able to accurately identify what the problem is. When we know what the problem is, we are better able to determine the right resources (time, people, skills, money, priority, etc.), and avoid distractions that appear to be a good fit. Examples could include improving the attitude of a loved one, a progressive shift in your business or work, increasing your ability to influence others for their benefit, or improving your perspective about your health and body. In these areas, too often is our focus on the current circumstance and we develop the tendency to try to correct the circumstance (which is only a result of the actual problem). Like the young boy, we us a variety of unauthorized parts that were not a part of the manufacture’s design. Our hope is that we all approach this year by embracing the freedom of truly creating solutions to problems that we were meant to solve. Your potential is so great! Go create your own seat, to negotiate your space at the table.

The thing that we are willing to sacrifice is self – to completely move self out of the way. LOVE MARRIAGE & PARTNERSHIP | THE REVIEW
WHO IS THE MR AND MRS THAT PEOPLE DON’T GET TO SEE? GOOFY! We love comedy! We are the people who pick up the random gestures, comments and happenings that many others apparently miss. It’s always the best laugh when we’ve left the area or group that we “saw/ heard” it, and one of us brings it up… WHAT IS A SCRIPTURE THAT YOU BOTH USE AS YOU FUNCTION IN A PARTNERSHIP? “Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.” (Mark 11:24)
LOVE MARRIAGE & PARTNERSHIP | THE REVIEW
SEASONED
It is early in the afternoon, you’re sitting in the coffee shop, and you lift your head away from your laptop. As you wait for your next burst of energy or creativity, you see an elderly man assist his wife to a table just before he takes a seat himself, crossing his legs. You see the light shift as the door opens and in walks a seasoned woman with her purse cuffed under her arm, and pulls her sunglasses down as she squints up at the menu. A sense of wonder comes to mind as you assume how simple their lives must be. Surely on one extreme is keeping up with prescriptions and doctor’s visits, the other consisting of travel and leisure events. Regardless of how sweet, hospitable, opinionated, or spirited they may be, most seniors cherish companionship. Consider yourself fortunate if you have grandparents or older relatives that you can still enjoy seeing at family gatherings, speaking with them over the phone, or caring for on a regular basis. Their sixty plus years of life experiences serve as pillars of wisdom for not only us, but our communities. This month, we would like to urge you to look beyond your beloved elders’ independence of driving themselves, or the effortless way they find themselves into your personal business. Instead, seek ways that you can positively impact their day. Because we are certain that after your day has been spent there will be an unbalanced portion of blessings in your favor, we challenge you to one or more of the following: - COMMUNITY CARPOOL: Assist a senior (or group) with transportation to a community/ neighborhood meeting. This is a great time to listen to their opinions, insight, and needs as elderly citizens.) - DO LUNCH: Whether you go out or visit them at their home, enjoy looking through old pictures, talking, or simply watching their favorite television show with them. - FITNESS FRIEND: Accompany them during one of their usual exercise routines. If one doesn’t exist, offer to help start one based on doctor’s recommendation. - CLEAN UP CREW: Offer to help them clean an area that they may have some difficulty cleaning on their own. - YOU’VE GOT MAIL: Send a post card, pictures or a letter just because. Follow up with a phone call to ensure that they received it.

Challenge ***Please note that this challenge does not have to consist of family members only. Seek those in your community as well. Also be sure to consult with their family or those that normally provide care and assistance before making plans. Happy Seasoning!
Dismiss every misconception that you have about Dating, be open-minded, and expect to have fun! Who says that Dating has to be anything other than what you want it to be? No one- it’s up to you how creative you want your predetermined moment of eminence to be! It is also important to note that Dating is for anyone: married, engaged, and yes, SINGLE. PARIS NIGHT WITHOUT LEAVING HOME
Dating IDEAS BY: MR & MRS ROACH
You decorate your home like a restaurant in a foreign country. Make it cheesy as possible while keeping it looking nice. Decorating is easy, use construction paper and things you find at a craft store. Then you have a friend dress up like a waiter and speak in the accent of that country.
GO FLY A KITE
Flying a kite! Sounds a little silly, but hey, we got to let the fun inside of us out sometime, and why not do it with the one we love.
GIVE BACK
Giving back to the community can bring you and your date closer together. A sense of peace and good fortune will bond you. Whether you opt to brighten the day of the elderly, serve food to the homeless, clean up a local beach or engage in countless other opportunities, be sure to choose a volunteering activity that is meaningful to both of you.
A MOMENT IN TIME
For the mature couple, seal your time together by constructing and burying a time capsule. Gather memorabilia that symbolizes your love for one another. A wedding invitation, saved wine cork, concert/plane ticket, copy of children’s birth records, meaningful photos, love letters and anything else that is unique to the story of your love. Be sure to include a note to the capsule’s future retrievers. LOVE MARRIAGE & PARTNERSHIP | THE REVIEW
STARTING FEBURARY 2019
Whether single or a couple, be thrusted to a new and exciting dimension where vision and intimacy unite. See what Mr and Mrs Roach are serving this year to help you create an intimate experience that will foster your inner visions and dreams.

PERSPECTIVE
When is the last time you took a minute to nurture yourself? Do you feel you have to be around a group of friends or in a relationship? Do you dedicate so much of your time to helping others with their problems and needs that you’re drained all the time? New Flash! It’s time for a reality check. Take a step back and get to know – YOU. Your self-worth is the core to your identity. The nurturing of your beliefs, aspirations, and dreams should start at home base. If you never take the time to tap into who are you are, you will never add an important ingredient to your foundation – thus it can affect you later in life. Understanding yourself allows you to become more observant before hanging with the wrong crowd. It allows you to have a clear picture of what you desire and deserve when dating or being in a relationship. It allows you to make better life choices considering your decisions may not just affect you. More importantly, it teaches you how to adapt without the feeling you have to be like other people. OK, maybe you didn’t grow up under the best circumstances, had a child at a young age, or feel the support you need is just not there. Did you know some friends or acquaintances are only meant to be there for a season, not a lifetime? Did you know - you may fall “head over hills” for someone that was only meant to teach you a lesson, and not marry them? Did you know - you deserve to take a minute to “woosah”, treat yourself, and spend some time alone without explanation? Furthermore, did you know, the stumbling blocks you encounter really equips to tackle obstacles later in life? In order for you to be at your best in any situation, you have to take care of yourself first! Whether you believe it or not, when you don’t, everyone attached to you can suffer. Your patience becomes thin, attitude becomes short, and perception of what should be concise and clear become very distorted. Knowing your worth decreases your chances of getting so caught up in the world and viewing yourself from the eyes of others. Yes, many people’s perception comes from what they see on the outside (your physique, clothes, make-up, and hair). But God’s perception comes from what’s in the inside (values, character, heart, and soul). We can’t spend so much time doing things to impress them, because in essence, we become unhappy, even miserable - and it slowly dims the inner light that represents Him!
