  Simple as it may seem, communication has the power to resolve conflicts and ensure true happiness.  From everyday life to historical figures, we have learned how effective communication can impact the  lives of millions. One of my favorite historical figures who exemplifies this is Jesus Christ. Through his  teachings and exceptional communication skills, Jesus Christ influenced the lives of countless people  worldwide. His teachings are documented in the Bible, which is one of the most widely read and  published books in the world. I came across a quote during my study on the power of words and  communication that resonated with me: "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will  forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." This quote is often attributed  to the famous poet and civil rights activist, Maya Angelou, although its origin story is debatable. Communication also serves as a powerful...

  I lost my father when I was only six years old. He was the main provider for our family, and his unexpected death had a significant impact on our lifestyle. As a result, I was separated from my siblings due to financial constraints, and being the youngest, I stayed with my mother. It was a difficult time, and I found myself feeling angry at God for taking my dad away too soon. I couldn't help but envy my siblings who had been taken in by our wealthier uncles and had all their needs met, while I struggled with fewer resources. This continued to shape my youth. However, I've come to realize that despite the pain and hardships, God has always been there for me, working behind the scenes to prepare a remarkable plan for my life. In 2019, while serving as a missionary in the England Manchester mission, I experienced a transformative healing. One Monday, amidst tears and questioning, I heard a voice telling me, "I have always been with you during these moments." In that...

Many young people, especially those who are members of the church and in the dating phase, often feel afraid to discuss sexual intimacy. They may lack the knowledge on how to initiate such conversations or fear giving the wrong impression to their partner due to the cultural norms they have been raised in. I strongly believe that while this topic can be sensitive, it is crucial to find appropriate ways to address it. In my country, there is a cultural practice of pre-marital initiation where young couples are taught about various aspects of sex and how to satisfy their partners . Furthermore, our church provides resources such as bishops and manuals that can be utilized to learn about this subject. There should be no shame associated with discussing this sensitive topic; instead, it should be approached as an opportunity for both partners to enjoy and understand each other better. It is often the lack of information or the desire to learn about how to sexually satisfy their partners ...

  Marriage is the union between two people who love each other and are willing to live together and share everything with each other. There are important steps that partners need to follow before deciding to get married. These steps include dating, courtship, engagement, and marriage. Step 1: Dating When dating someone, it's important to take the time to get to know the person and ensure that you can spend quality time together. Personally, I believe that spending at least one year together before moving to the next steps is ideal. While some may argue that there is no set timeline for love, I believe that it is beneficial to have enough time to see your partner's behavior under different circumstances, such as stress, anger, and happiness. This understanding helps both individuals in the relationship to improve and provide better care for each other. It's often said, "Never date someone you would never consider marrying," but I believe we should be more flexible ...
