Why Shannon Sharpe Did It: Spiritual Lessons about Lust and Loss #shannonsharpe #lifelessons
All human behavior is manifested based on what is in our mind and heart. To be carnally-mined leads to desperation, disease, and death; to be spiritually-minded leads to love and living to the fullest. When a man's mind is distorted about the purpose of women, sex, and relationships, he will be prone to perversion and deviation. Lust will consume him, and loss will always follow.

(Love and Relationships) Big and Beautiful: Lessons from the No Fugazee Podcast
It's hard, but when you accept that your marital status is determined by God, you will experience a preternatural peace. While size matters, being smaller or fit does not guarantee that you will be treated with respect and love. Women who have never been "fat" a day in their lives have been mistreated, abused, lied to...and even killed. Big women, please stop trying to get men to look beyond your weight. Shedding pounds does not lead to shedding problems. Let those men get what they want. Seek out God for direction and guidance. If it is His will that you marry, you will. Dry your eyes, and focus on all the good things in your life rather than fretting about not being married. Listen and learn.
