For An Alternative Rush

What do you think would happen with the husband and wife union if couples committed themselves dutifully to following the characteristics of the Sermon on the Mount? I think there would be way less divorce, how about you? Also, there would definitely be happier children in the household, wouldn’t there?

Below I have made a one-week affirmation guide for marriage using the “Sermon on the Mount. Try it for one week, and if all goes well, try it for another week, etc.

Copy/paste/print this weekly marriage guide out — follow it for three weeks and see how you feel about yourself and spouse. If you feel like emailing me the results, I would love to hear from you.

1.) Today on Monday, I will not act proud with my spouse. I will humble myself, even if I think I’m right.
Blessed are the poor in spirit for their is the kingdom of heaven
Matthew 5:3

2.) Today on Tuesday, I will only please my spouse, not myself. The whole day I will be sincerely gentle and kind to my spouse. I will do only those things that would be giving and thoughtful to my wife/husband.
Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5

3.) Today on Wednesday, I will give in to my husband/wife wishes. Whatever they ask, within reason will not be denied. I will not be self-seeking.

4.) Today on Thursday, I will find one or more biblical ways to enhance my marriage. What would God want me to do for my marriage today? How can I make my wife/husband feel good about who they are? How can I make them happy?
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Matthew 5:6

5.) Today on Friday, I will forgive my wife/husband for wounding my heart. I will ask God to rid my heart and mind of negative feelings and resentment towards my spouse. I will truly forgive.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Matthew 5:7

6.) Today on Saturday, I will admit my weakness to my spouse and most importantly to God. Today I will ask God to grant me forgiveness and free me from the temptation to sin.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God Matthew 5:8

7.) Today on Sunday, I will be a peacemaker. I will not quarrel or fight with my wife/husband. Today I will find one or more ways in which I can bring contentment and peace into my marriage.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. Matthew 5:9

The American Obesity Association calls obesity a “chronic disease” which is a “neglected public health problem”. Currently there are more than 120 million overweight adults in the United States. Is it really any wonder that lots of people want to know where to find original hoodia cactus. With reports by respected journalists first praising the plant for its appetite suppressing abilities and then saying that research is still underway and dieters will have to wait. That’s like dangling a carrot, or more appropriately a cupcake, in front of overweight Americans and then pulling it away. So, the overweight begin to search: first for where to find original cactus and then for natural certified hoodia. They search for natural certified hoodia, because information on the web advises them that not all hoodia products are the same.

Class action lawsuits have been brought against at least a couple of companies for selling something other than what their package claims they sell. The Federal Trade Commission investigates complaints of false or misleading advertising in the health supplement, as well as other industries. They advise consumers to beware of bogus weight loss claims and list seven claims that almost always signal that he or she is about to be ripped off. They are currently investigating several health supplement manufacturers.

So, informed people search for natural certified hoodia from a company that does not make claims that are just too good to be true; because where to find original hoodia cactus is in South Africa and most dieters are just not willing to travel there. Even if a dieter was willing to make the trip, they could not buy a hoodia gordonii plant and bring it back home with them. Hoodia gordonii is on a list of rare and endangered species. Exportation from South Africa is strictly regulated. Companies must be licensed by the South African government in order to take hoodia gordonii out of the country. This, at least, makes it easier to find natural certified hoodia gordonii. Dieters can be relatively confident about buying products from companies that display a CITES certificate.

For example, Hoodia XR and Desert Burn websites display both CITES certificates and chemical analysis reports. These reports confirm the presence of natural certified hoodia gordonii. These companies know where to find original hoodia cactus, even though it is technically a succulent.
