Forever Love

This is a very special episode because it’s our 50th episode and to celebrate, I wanted to introduce you to the love of my life, my husband Lovingson Mtongwiza.

Thanks for joining me today, and I'd be so grateful if you can share this episode with a friend or a loved one. Let's get to it.

Last week in our Free Facebook Community, I asked the ladies if they had any questions they’d like my husband to tackle. And of course, you’re all so good at helping me brainstorm and collaborate, so we have some really good topics we’re going to cover here today.

Now, in case you don’t know, Lovingson and I have known each other for over 9 years, been married for 7, and have two beautiful little girls together. We are also a blended family and an inter-racial family.

If you haven't already, please share this episode with a friend or with a loved one. And if you'd be so kind and leave me a review, I'd be so grateful. I love reading what you like hearing on this episode so I can tailor each and every episode for you.

Who am I to deserve love?

In today's episode, I'm talking about the ways in which those feelings of unworthiness creep into your life and sabotage your efforts to honor your God-given desire for a Christ-centered marriage.

How are you preparing for the challenges of marriage?

As someone who has experienced being left for another woman, Meghan understands the deep pain, frustration, and confusion of women go through as they prayerfully wait for the Lord to restore their marriage.

Kaity left her last relationship over 5 years ago. There is a new man in her life, but there's still a question of whether or not God is calling her back to her past. She feels scared and doesn't want to make the wrong decision.

Norma wants Herman, but Herman is a widower who needs time to grieve. She also has a couple of suitors who have been interested in her for some time. Should she be patient and understanding as she waits for Herman to go through the grieving process? Or should she explore other options?

I coach Norma to see the bigger picture and help her through what it means to establish a want match and share her true desire for a Christ-centered marriage. Pay particularly close attention to our discussion around dating and courtship at the end of the episode.

How to make the transition from banging your head against the wall, because nothing you're doing with regards to love is working, to being engaged to an equally yoked and Christ-centered partner.

Oftentimes, people assume that the best part about being a relationship coach must be working from home or setting my own hours. 

While those are both true, and AMAZING perks of this job, I’d have to say that my very favorite thing is bearing witness to the transformative journey my clients take when they work with me.

This is an astounding privilege and I wanted to share it with you.

I would love to hear how The Forever Love Podcast is making a difference in your life.

Today I want to talk about our attachment to our stories.

I talk to clients all the time who are extremely sentimental about their stories even though they are painful and holding them back.

Just the other day, I was working with someone who wanted to tell me all about how everything was against them.

Statistics, the church, friends, books, podcasts, everyone, and everything.

This viewpoint was clearly painful and holding her back from pursuing her God-given desire for love and relationship, but she was reluctant to let it go because it seemed true.

And I want to share with you what I told her.

And that is this…

Get your pen and paper out because it’s worth writing down.

There is a difference between facts and truth.

Let me say that again!

There is a difference between facts and truth.

There comes a time in every woman’s life where she finally believes wholeheartedly that she is going to be a wife.

Sometimes it happens on her way up down the aisle.

But usually, it happens somewhere between heartbreak and daydream.

For me, it happened while I was still very young and naive. I just knew that I was meant to be married. That the best version of myself happened to include being a wife and mother.

But that awareness was often also driven by fear.

Because I also thought that being a wife and mother was somehow better than being me here and now. That it was better than being single.

As a result, I had a tendency to rush. I threw myself into relationships and went on crazy wild searches for my better half.

You must be wondering, how did I make that transition from desperate searching to a solid Christ-centered relationship?

Well my friend, it all started when I learned how to listen to and trust Christ within, instead of all the voices on the outside.

It all boils down to this…

My mom, friends, mentors, and pastors all love me deeply and want the very best for me. There are books and sermons, Youtube videos, and courses that will teach you how to prepare for marriage.

But at the end of the day, there is Christ on the inside who is willing and able to direct your steps.

In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to stop listening to the world and start listening to Christ within.
