When it comes to relationship advice I see myself running to the scripture to find answers to my questions and problems that I may be facing. While searching through the word of God, I was able to find so many powerful verses that have been able to help me in life and in love. To learn to love like Jesus does is to learn how to love honestly, bravely, and unconditionally. To love like Jesus is such a powerful bond, that only a select few are able to achieve. So, here is some advice to help you to learn to love like Jesus and grow in your relationship.

1. Song of Songs 8:4

“Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires."

2. 1 John 4:8

“Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."

3. Ephesians 4:2

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love."

4. 1 John 3: 16-18

“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

5. 1 Peter 4:8

“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."

6. 1 John 4: 18

“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love."

7. Luke 6:31

“Do to others as you would have them do to you."

8. 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."

9. Colossians 3: 23

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."

10. 1 Corinthians 15: 33

Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character."

11. Romans 12:9

“Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good."

12. Genesis 2:18

“The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

17 Brands To Support And Buy Your Sazón From That Aren't Goya

@senseandsensibility

For a long time, Goya has been a staple in some Latino households. People carry around jars of Adobo when they eat at friend's houses and packets of Sazón Goya can be found in almost everyone's pantry. Many BuzzFeed lists, videos, and memes aimed at Latinos reference Goya somewhere.

But in a year that just keeps hitting us with bad news, Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue said that Trump was an "incredible builder" and that the US was "blessed" to have him as president at a White House event on Thursday.

15 Ways To Style THAT Crewneck Sweatshirt You Wear At Least Three Times A Week

You know the one.

@ cinziabayliszullo

I've never been big on casual wear or athleisure. Most people who know me have never seen me in sweats. But, I do have those two or three pairs of sweats I can't resist climbing into the second I get home, the newest addition of which is the extra cozy Odyssey crewneck sweatshirt I got in an XL size to feel as close to being wrapped in a blanket at all times as possible.

In the past several months, I've started to expand my horizons, considering the ways in which I can bring my small wardrobe of comfortable bedroom clothing into the public. I've experimented with topping leggings and a sports bra with a denim jacket to the park, and an oversized sweatshirt worn as a dress, cinched at the waist with a belt when I'm out wearing leggings.

The waiter briskly moves towards us and stops just a foot away table, balancing the black serving tray stacked high with the ceramic plates that make-up our dinner. From memorization, he beings gently, but purposely, sliding everyone's orders in front of them and within seconds I'm am starring my meal.

These Honey-Based Beauty Buys Are All We Need To BEE Our Glowiest, Hair To Toes

We're buzzing at each and every one of these.

@gisou

Honey has been a staple in my Ayurvedic skincare routine since I was a kid and my grandmother used to make me homemade paste-like face masks by mixing chickpea flour, turmeric, honey, and yogurt together.

I now use honey head to toe — on my hair to make it extra shiny, on my face for its natural smoothing and anti-bacterial properties, and the rest of my body for its extreme textural and brightening benefits. Some people even use it on their armpits for honey's lightening effect on the skin.

People Are Eating Salads For Breakfast, And It's About Time

As Americans we know we all need to eat more fruits and veggies, why not do it at breakfast?

I first started seeing a dietitian in late 2017. At the time, I was the heaviest I've ever been at about 210 lbs. At the first appointment, my dietitian asked me to record what I ate in a food diary so she could better understand my habits and give me better direction in changing my lifestyle. I did exactly that and returned a week later, diary in hand. After a cursory glance at the pages, she first remarked at how few fruits and vegetables I ate. Deep down I had already known that, but what I didn't know then was that I was far from being alone in that respect. According to a Times article, about 90 percent of Americans don't consume enough fruits and vegetables to meet current dietary guidelines. It's hardly rocket science as to why that is — many of our diets consist mainly of carbs and non-planted based protein. This isn't to say that carbs and protein are the devils; they're both parts of a balanced diet. However, vegetables and fruit are also part of a balanced diet — a part that often gets neglected. So, when I see people on Instagram eating salad for breakfast, I think to myself "It's about time!"
