Crave Thy

Here are some more information for Crave Thy:

It's true that men and women are naturally attracted to mysterious and elusive people; they want to feel like they found a hidden treasure. But mysterious and elusive doesn't mean become inaccessible - do not answer the phone, stand them up, pretend you are busy and all that stuff. If you disappear he or she has no body to chase.

Most people who play these kind of coy games end up sitting by the phone listening to the ring, ring... ring...ring... all the while wondering whether thy should pick up the phone or not. It's immature and emotionally unhealthy to mess with your own emotions.

Allow the other person to access your already-busy life and let him or her be able to contact you, but go on with your own life as you normally would. Don't change your whole lifestyle for someone else, and please don't pretend to have a life just to get him or her to chase you. The only person who'll get hurt is you because you are the only one who knows what you are doing. The other person might actually think you are too busy that's why you don't pick up the phone.

Get a real life, a career, a hobby, volunteer or do something for someone else, go see a movie, make plans for a guys' or girls' night out -- just make sure it doesn't involve anyone's dates. If he or she doesn't call, your day or time was not wasted because you were not sitting waiting.

When your life is not programmed around his or her schedule you can afford not to sound too eager or desperate when he or she says. "I'll call you". Instead of saying, "OK, I'll wait for your call"; you can comfortably say "I'll speak to you soon."

And when he or she calls, whenever, you'll have real plans. You can then invite him or her into your interesting life by suggesting things to do that you both enjoy.

For example, he or she may suggest that you get together the same evening you have hockey/dance class, instead of hurriedly canceling your hockey game or evening class, you can say, "I have a hockey game/dance class on Tuesday, do you want to come to the game/class?" If he or she says, "No, Thursday is not good for me" and doesn't suggest another day or time, you can leave the ball in his or her court by saying "If you change your mind about Thursday evening, you know where to find me".

If he or she suggests another day or time and you have nothing lined up, the two of you can go ahead and have a great time. If you have something else lined up, you can say, "Hmmm, Friday is not good for me either, how about Saturday afternoon. I am volunteering at the Sick Children's Hospital until 2.00. p.m. You can join me or we can meet up at say, 3.00. p.m."

This sends the message that your life is full and exciting and he or she is welcome to share it with you, if he or she wants to. If not, life goes on.

The fact is, if you have a lot of exciting things going on in your life people will want to become part of it. And when you're actually enjoying your life, it's not game playing because you're not pretending to be busy to try to mess with his or her mind.

A little bit of mystery, challenge and "out of reach" every now and then can inspire him or her not to become complacent or take you for granted.

Top 10 Cravings and Their Healthy Food Choices

Have you ever noticed that there are particular foods that you crave on a regular basis, often in cycles?
 
You’re not alone.  For example, many people crave sugar, carbohydrates, or alcohol not because of eating disorders, but instead it is a sign of hormone imbalance caused by a lack of healthy nutrition.
 
One thing the doctors agree on, if you have dieted over a long period of time, particularly low-fat dieting, chances are your metabolism needs to heal itself first with the necessary nutritional support such as high-grade vitamins and supplements.
 
If you become aware of your common cravings, you can also do daily work to slowly change your unhealthy habits and get back to a normal lifestyle that is not controlled by physical imbalances.  When you find yourself craving a particular food, try eating the healthy food choice is small amounts.
 
Researchers have discovered that chocolate contains the same alkaloid compounds found in alcohol.  So you chocolate cravings might feel like an addiction, but like any other imbalance, you can fix it.  More women tend to have this craving and often our bodies are influenced by a shortage of magnesium.  In this case, healthy food choices include raw nuts, seeds, legumes and fruits.

If you crave sweets often, you might be exhausted or feeling depressed, your blood sugar and serotonin levels and likely low, and so the body signals the brain that it needs a pick me up.  But what your body probably needs is healthier food choices that include chromium, such as broccoli, grapes, cheese, dried beans, calves liver and chicken.  You may also need carbon, phosphorous, sulfur and tryptophan.  Try the following foods:  fresh fruits, chicken, beef, liver, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, legumes, cheese, raisins, and vegetables such as kale, spinach and cabbage.

If you crave oily and fatty foods, what your body needs primarily is calcium.  Healthy sources of calcium include mustard and turnip greens, broccoli, kale, legumes, cheese, and sesame.

A craving for coffee or tea, may be an indication of a few nutrients that are lacking such as phosphorus, sulfur, NaCL (salt) and iron.  Some of the healthy food choices in this case are chicken, beef, liver, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, legumes, egg yolks, red pepper, garlic, onion, cruciferous vegetables, sea salt, apple cider vinegar, seaweed, greens and black cherries.

Craving alcohol or even recreational drugs can be an indication that your body probably needs more protein, avenin, calcium, glutamine and potassium.  Try eating meat, poultry, seafood, dairy, nuts, granola, oatmeal, mustard and turnip greens, broccoli, kale, legumes, cheese, raw cabbage juice, black olives, and seaweed.

If you crave soda or carbonated drinks, your body probably needs calcium.  Try eating mustard and turnip greens, broccoli, kale, legumes, cheese and sesame.  Here’s an important tip:  if you find yourself wanting to chewing ice often, your need iron.  Food sources are meat, fish, poultry, seaweed, greens and black cherries, or supplement a gentle iron.

If you crave salty foods, your body is looking for chloride.  The healthy choice is raw goat milk, fish and unrefined sea salt.  If a lot of your food choices are acidic in nature, you should supplement magnesium.

If you crave tobacco, your body could be looking for silicon and tyrosine.  Eat nuts, seeds and avoid refined starches.  It’s also a good idea to supplement Vitamin C and eat orange, green and red fruits and vegetables.

If you find yourself craving any solid food over a liquid, your body is dehydrated.  You have probably needed water for a long time so try flavoring your water with lemon or lime and give the body 8 glasses a day.

Women who have specific cravings right around menstruation or pre-menstrual are lacking zinc.  Try eating red meats (especially organ meats), seafood, leafy vegetables and root vegetables. 
The good news it’s possible to get your body back into balance with the right food choices made every day and supplement only where absolutely necessary.

The Curse of Women After Eve's Sin - What does it really mean ?

Gen 3:16 ..and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over you. - KJV

The phrase “a woman is responsible to her husband” does not indicate the man’s control or supremacy but rather his being her source. Because man was created first, the woman derives her existence from man, as man does from Christ and Christ from God. Evidently Paul was correcting some excesses in worship in which the emancipated Corinthian women were engaging.
Cross References:
1 Corinthians 11:3—Genesis 3:16; 1 Corinthians 3:23; Ephesians 5:23
The principle is submission, which is a key element in the smooth functioning of any business, government, or family. God ordained submission in certain relationships to prevent chaos. It is essential to understand that submission is not surrender, withdrawal, or apathy. It does not mean inferiority, because God created all people in his image and all have equal value. Submission is mutual commitment and cooperation.
Thus, God calls for submission among equals. He did not make the man superior; he made a way for a husband and wife to work together. Jesus Christ, although equal with God the Father, submitted to him to carry out the plan for salvation. Likewise, although equal to man under God, the wife should submit to her husband for the sake of their marriage and family. Submission between equals is submission by choice, not by force. We serve God in these relationships by willingly submitting to others in our church, to our spouses, and to our government leaders.

God created lines of authority in order for his created world to function smoothly. Although there must be lines of authority even in marriage, there should not be lines of superiority. God created men and women with unique and complementary characteristics. One sex is not better than the other. We must not let the issue of authority and submission become a wedge to destroy oneness in marriage. Instead, we should use our unique gifts to strengthen our marriages and to glorify God.
