The Grass Isn’t Greener on the Other Side

There comes a time in every relationship where one or both people involved think to themselves “I should leave and go find someone better” The thought may occur during or after an argument, orwhen a certain expectation isn’t met, or during some sort of miscommunication where your feelings are hurt..

  • Is That True Love?

    Why in many relationships, when there is a rejection, deception, it’s always had a place of painful pain? Is that because we love so much the other person? Probably not, maybe it’s because we were so focus on ourselves, that we never imagine it can happen.

  • Seasons of life

    New Zealand is currently in transition between autumn and winter.

  • How to intentionally follow Jesus

    Over 40% of the Australian population say they are Christian, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
