In this relationship advice column video for women, I answer the question of a wife who says that her husband cheated on her, but she stayed. How should she handle this infidelity?
This video is a Bible Study for women. In this video we talk about following God’s plan for your life, and we begin telling the story of Abraham, part 2.
4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Harran. 5 He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan, and they arrived there.
6 Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh at Shechem. At that time the Canaanites were in the land. 7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring[c] I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
8 From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord.
9 Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev.
Abram in Egypt
10 Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to live there for a while because the famine was severe. 11 As he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai, “I know what a beautiful woman you are. 12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ Then they will kill me but will let you live. 13 Say you are my sister, so that I will be treated well for your sake and my life will be spared because of you.”
14 When Abram came to Egypt, the Egyptians saw that Sarai was a very beautiful woman. 15 And when Pharaoh’s officials saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into his palace. 16 He treated Abram well for her sake, and Abram acquired sheep and cattle, male and female donkeys, male and female servants, and camels.
17 But the Lord inflicted serious diseases on Pharaoh and his household because of Abram’s wife Sarai. 18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram. “What have you done to me?” he said. “Why didn’t you tell me she was your wife? 19 Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Now then, here is your wife. Take her and go!” 20 Then Pharaoh gave orders about Abram to his men, and they sent him on his way, with his wife and everything he had.

Leslie writes about NSSI, Non Suicidal Self Injury:
Hi Chauntel,
I hear you can help girls like me like to stop cutting. Well, my problem is that I am cutting cuz my friend raped me.
Hi Leslie,
Wow, I am so very, very sorry to hear that. I cannot imagine how you feel. I do however, want you to share this with someone that you know and trust, so that you can receive the help and support that you need.
Sometimes, we hurt ourselves to try to ease the pain that others have caused us. What you will learn is that hurting yourself will not ease the pain that you feel from that terrible experience.
I want you to know that God loves you more than you can imagine, and what happened to you is not your fault. You need to report whoever did this to you, for you and for anyone else who might be hurt by this person in the future.
I also, want you to seek some professional help to deal with overcoming the pain that this experience is causing in your life.
To get you started, I want to tell you that turning to self injury is not the answer. It will not take back what happened to you.
What I want you to do is take the power back in your life. Replace this negative behavior with a positive one. This way, you overcome this situation instead of beating yourself up about it.
You need to find out what is triggering you; what is causing you to want to harm yourself. It probably has a lot to deal with not dealing with your feelings.
Turn away from cutting yourself and turn your action into loving yourself and finding that love for yourself again. Do not let this person lead your life. Allow God to lead it for God is love.
You are the only one who can make the change in your life. You cannot erase what happened to you, but you have the power to choose how you will overcome it. I believe in you, and I know that you are greater than this situation. Thank you for being the voice of so many other girls like you. You have great courage, but you were not meant to overcome this alone.
Please, get support and prayer for what you are going through. My community is praying with and for you. I will provide some resources below.
May God bless you, and please know that you are not alone. There are unfortunately others who have been raped and abused, and they have overcome it. You can too. Here is a story of a girl you may relate to. Her story is different, but her coping of cutting herself is the same:
Thanks so much for writing me, it means the world to me.
12 The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
2 “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.[a] 3 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”[b]
4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Harran. 5 He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan, and they arrived there.
6 Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh at Shechem. At that time the Canaanites were in the land. 7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring[c] I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
8 From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord.
9 Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev.

Dating at home doesn’t have to mean a lacking in the fun! So, let’s talk about some cool date ideas that you can do right from the comfort of your own humble abode!
What makes these date ideas so intriguing is that they are both inexpensive and romantic. In order to make a stay at home date special, you really have to put time into the planning and execution. That’s what sets it over the top.
I mean let’s face it, when we plan to go out, we spend half-of-the time getting ready, traveling, settling into the date, and then we have to come back home and wind down. So, let’s skip all the fat and get right into the meat of it all, the special time that you spend with him.
1. Sip and Paint
So come up with a concept of something that you both enjoy and paint it together. You could purchase a 3 panel canvas. Each of you can paint an end piece, and you both can paint the center. If you like it enough, you can find a place to hang it in the house. While you are at it enjoy in your favorite beverage and desert.
So you could plan and cook a romantic dinner that you would eat together in-front of the fireplace. As you wind-down, you browse through old photos in an album, or choose some new ones from your smartphone together that you might want to print out. After looking at the photos, take some time to reminiscence on great times that you have had together; this will inspire planning time for the future. Hey, while you are at you, you’re creating a great memory.
3. BackYard Picnic:
Changing up the scenery can have a huge effect on how you feel. So, get outside and enjoy nature. When you do, you will find all kinds of little adventures to get into. They may even just be conversations about the world around you. Being in nature has a very calming way with our emotions, and it will bring you that much closer together.
by Анна
4. Game Night:
So play a guessing-game or board-game and pick a prize. It can be tangible, sexy, or task oriented! Have fun with it! Both of you can choose something that you want from each other and guide the game with it!
5. Bake Together:
Whatever your favorite dessert is you can bake it together. Just make sure that it has a ton of frosting involved! Why? Well, after you bake, say some cupcakes, you each can decorate them how you like. Then, the left over frosting could be used in a kissing game of sorts.
We are not all into bugs, but that might be the fun part of it. Rough it up, pitch a tent and have a small camp fire. You could easily roast some s’mores and hotdog on a stick. Enjoy the goodness by the fire before cozying up with your sleeping bag!
7. Have a backyard Barbecue:
Everybody loves some good eatin’! Let me tell you, you could never go wrong with a good barbecue. So pick out your favorite snacks, put on some fun music, and dance outside while preparing the food. While, the meat is cuein’, take some time to talk about how much you love each other and how thankful you are for one another.

8. Dinner and a Movie:
It’s simple, but I couldn’t leave it out! There is something about a fresh-popped-bag-of-butter-popcorn that gets me every-time. Watching a movie together gives you a chance to share in a common emotions and give passionate reactions. It is also a great way to cuddle and it makes sleeping that much easier!
9. Have a At Home Spa Day:
Who doesn’t love to be pampered? So either pamper each-other or order help in. You defiantly won’t be disappointed when you are both relaxed and settled into your pjs. Relieving stress together brings a bliss into your relationship.
