In the journey of love, it’s crucial to be vigilant about signs that may indicate an unhealthy relationship, preventing potential pitfalls. Here’s a guide on identifying and addressing issues before they escalate.
Unveiling the Warning Signs
1. Physical Warning Signals
In the initial stages of courtship, subtle clues may surface, indicating potential harm. Physical aggression, such as occasional slaps or punches, should not be dismissed, assuming change will come. Recognizing these early signs is paramount.
2. Persistent Nagging Behavior
Constant nagging can be a red flag, revealing deeper issues. While it may be tempting to attribute it to temperament, persistent nagging might indicate fundamental compatibility problems that need attention.
3. Lack of Support for Aspirations
For a flourishing relationship, alignment in visions and aspirations is crucial. If your partner shows disinterest or apathy toward your life goals, it’s a signal to reassess the relationship. Don’t let love blind you to the importance of shared dreams.
Listening to Divine Guidance
4. Heeding the Holy Spirit’s Cues
Often, the Holy Spirit provides insights into the health of a relationship. Ignoring these cues due to overconfidence can lead to detrimental consequences. Seeking guidance and being open to divine intervention can bring clarity.
5. Spiritual Compatibility
Acknowledging the spiritual dimension of life is essential. A shallow spiritual life can impact the overall well-being of a relationship. Pay attention to your partner’s attitude towards God, their engagement with spiritual practices, and their commitment to attending church regularly.
6. Value for God’s Word
A strong foundation in faith involves valuing and integrating God’s word into daily life. If your partner doesn’t prioritize regular reading and study of the scriptures, it may indicate a misalignment in core values.
7. Inconsistent Church Attendance
Regular church attendance reflects a commitment to spiritual growth. If your partner rarely attends, it could be a warning sign. Healthy spiritual practices contribute to a stable and fulfilling relationship.
Addressing Lifestyle Choices
8. Dealing with Substance Use
Observing your partner’s relationship with substances is crucial. Whether it’s drinking to cope with troubles or indulging in harmful habits, understanding these patterns is vital. These behaviors can have lasting effects on the relationship.
9. Prioritizing Responsibilities
Busy schedules are a part of life, but using busyness as an excuse to neglect spiritual commitments is a concern. Understanding each other’s priorities, especially in the context of courtship, sets the foundation for a balanced future together.
10. Communication in Courtship
Transparent communication is key. If courtship is a secret affair known only to the couple, it may indicate a lack of openness. Regular and meaningful communication is a precursor to a strong and lasting marriage.

Yesterday, we delved into the first one; let’s now continue our exploration.
2. God’s Word Will Ignite Hope for a Bright Future
Once your past is forgiven and forgotten, the divine words of God take on a new role—they birth hope within you. This hope becomes a crucial element, paving the way for the fullness of God’s blessings. Suddenly, a light shines in your heart, and hope springs to life, whispering that your story is far from over.

Faith, a force capable of conquering the world, finds its roots in the hearing of God’s word. As you immerse yourself in the scriptures, faith gradually blossoms within you. Why is faith pivotal? It is the very essence that empowers you to triumph in God!
“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” (1 John 5:4 KJV)
Let’s grasp the profoundness in the Message Translation:
“Every God–begotten person conquers the world’s ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith.” (1 John 5:4 Message)
Did you catch that? Faith, derived from God’s word, possesses the power to humble the world and its systems. What a glorious revelation!
4. Illuminating Your Path: God’s Word as a Guide for Singles
Life demands decisions, and decisions determine direction. A good life, however, hinges not just on decisions but on making the right ones. Our human frailty succumbs to divine guidance, especially in choosing a life partner.
“The Lord is my shepherd” transforms from a mere statement to a vibrant reality when we embrace His word as our compass.
5. God’s Word Will Establish Stability in Relationships and Marriages
Infusing God’s word into your heart enhances your discernment, distinguishing between the right and wrong individuals. Stability becomes a paramount need in relationships and marriages.
Success in marriage necessitates divine wisdom, steering clear of the common pitfalls of separations and divorce.
“And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.” (Isaiah 33:6 KJV)
In conclusion, the transformative power of God’s word extends beyond personal growth, offering hope, building unshakable faith, guiding life choices, and ensuring stability in relationships. Embrace these revelations, and watch as your life unfolds in the brilliance of divine wisdom.
As a single or married couple, you should surround yourself with that word. Listen to tapes, read books, read it online, hear it in church, read it on KHC, and by all means, keep feeding your inner man. Your success and stature in life are predicated on your studious habit of God’s word.
And don’t for a minute let this Book of Revelation be out of mind. Ponder and meditate on it day and night, making sure you practice everything written in it. Then you’ll get where you’re going; then you’ll succeed. (Joshua 1:8 Message)
Do you know that some of the frustrations that you are going through right now as a single or married couple can be terminated by God’s word?
Do you know that some of the greatest questions in your heart right now can be answered when you read and study God’s word?
Do you know that some of the greatest puzzles and enigma in your heart can be dissolved by God’s word?
Do you know some of the hidden things that seemed oblivious and far-fetched can be unraveled and brought to the fore by God’s word?
All things were made by him, and without him was not anything made that was made. (John 1:3 KJV)
Here are some things that God’s word will do for you.
1. God’s word will clean up your past
It doesn’t matter what your past looked like, the word of God, anointed in and of itself will wipe the slate clean for you!
It is almost unbelievable and incredible to the human mind, but in one stroke of sacrifice, Jesus paid the price on your behalf.
The past should never hold you to ransom again.
You have been made free.
The mistakes of yesteryears can no longer bear their fangs at you today!
We looked at the first instance yesterday, We continue today.
Psalms 9:5 (MSG) You blow the whistle on godless nations; you throw dirty players out of the game, wipe their names right off the roster.
2. If a match is suspended or abandoned
A whistle is used when a match is suspended or abandoned.
Were you abandoned by a supposed lover?
Was the marriage plan suspended after you announced the date and the boo on Facebook?
Did you have to change “Engaged” to “It’s complicated?”
Have you had to change “Single” to “Engaged” and then back to ‘Single” and then “Engaged” over and over again?
I have good news for you!
God is about to blow the whistle on your behalf.
He or she might have abandoned you, but God has not rejected you!
That is all that matters!
If he leaves you, let him go! Maybe his name is Abed-ne-go!
If she leaves you, let her go! Maybe she is not qualified to handle the greatness of your future which she cannot see now!
Never beg a guy to stay with you who wants to go. Let him go. In his heart, he is gone. If you beg him to stay and he stays, he is staying to leave soonest, after enjoying more sexual escapades from you!
If he gets to marry you, you will need to keep begging him all through your life!
The rejection of man often becomes the direction of God!
Rise from the doldrums of that agony and move into the joy of the Lord that awaits you!
The wedding plan might have stopped, but don’t stop your life. God is the referee!
For married couples, do you feel abandoned by your spouse? Do you feel neglected? What could be their distractions? Work, friends, colleagues, immediate family? Whatever it is, God is blowing His whistle on all distractions in your marriage that are causing a sense of abandonment and neglect!
Your Spouse will focus on you and cherish you all over because God is blowing the whistle on all distractions in Jesus’ name!
Take a look at this scripture before we look at the different scenarios.
Psalms 9:5 (MSG) You blow the whistle on godless nations; you throw dirty players out of the game, wipe their names right off the roster.
God is blowing the whistle on every godless entity harassing your destiny!
God is throwing all dirty players away from your life.
God is wiping off names of deceivers, froward men, liars, strange women off the roster of your destiny!
No more distractions for you!
1. For a free kick or penalty kick
Every pretentious lover who is planning to commit fouls in your life, God is blowing the whistle on them.
No more will you be cheated on the field of play!
God is the referee!
No longer will you attract time wasters, destiny killers, distraction entities, and wicked men.
Your marital life will no longer be a field of play with countless fouls from energy-sapping players who have no intentions of walking down the aisle.
For married couples, God is blowing the whistle on every side chick, on every man or woman out there distracting your spouse, God is blowing the whistle on them!
God will referee your marriage and cause the winning goals to be on your side! You will no longer play against each other but work towards a common goal!
Marriage is a journey, and for Buddy and Sade, the road has been filled with unexpected twists. What seemed like an unbreakable love during courtship hit the harsh realities of married life, leaving them questioning if their love could endure.
Unmasking the Real You: The Impact of Marriage
Contrary to popular belief, marriage doesn’t change individuals; it reveals their true selves. Buddy and Sade, like many others, discovered that understanding each other’s needs is pivotal for a thriving relationship.
The Maturity of Meeting Needs
A key aspect often overlooked is recognizing and addressing the distinct needs of each partner. Maturity in a relationship comes from prioritizing your spouse’s needs over your own. This is true in both courtship and marriage.
Decoding the Greatest Needs
Understanding the unique needs of your partner is the cornerstone of a successful relationship. For women, time and attention top the list. Spending quality time and giving undivided attention convey genuine care and love.
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. (1 Peter 3:7 KJV)
Men, on the other hand, crave sex and respect. Delving into these fundamental needs can lead to a fulfilling relationship.
Navigating Needs in Courtship
Meeting Her Needs
For singles in courtship, proximity makes meeting a woman’s needs simpler. Regularly scheduling time together fosters a deeper connection. Long-distance relationships require consistent communication to bridge the gap.
The purpose of seeing each other is to understand and align your souls, fostering communication and future planning. Physical intimacy is reserved for marriage, and crossing that boundary during courtship can jeopardize the foundation of trust.
His Needs Matter Too
Single men, regardless of their beliefs, may feel the urge for physical intimacy. It’s a legitimate need, but one that should be reserved for marriage. Controlling desires and waiting ensures a foundation built on respect and obedience to one’s beliefs.
Sustaining Love in Marriage – Prioritizing Time and Attention
Married couples often face the challenge of balancing busy schedules. Neglecting the fundamental needs of time and attention can lead to emotional strain and financial consequences.
Understanding His Need for Intimacy
Sex is a valid need within marriage. Neglecting this aspect can lead to feelings of disrespect from the husband. Balancing the priorities of God, family, and career is crucial to maintaining a healthy marriage.
“Defraud ye not one another…when you deny each other, the Bible calls it fraud!” (1 Corinthians 7:5 KJV)
Sex should never be a tool for punishment or reward but rather a shared duty in the union.
In conclusion, understanding and fulfilling the needs of your partner are vital for a lasting and fulfilling relationship. May God’s peace prevail in every challenge or storm that may arise in your journey together.
Can violence come before a love adventure? Does it make sense to unleash pain on the one you truly love?
Why do victims of rape cleave to their abusers and vice versa?
Why do people go after a person who is not treating them well?
Several reasons, but let’s take a look at one this morning from this story
Attraction After Distraction?
One day Dinah, the daughter Leah had given Jacob, went to visit some of the women in that country. Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was chieftain there, saw her and raped her. Then he felt a strong attraction to Dinah, Jacob’s daughter, fell in love with her and wooed her. Gen 34:1-3 (MSG)
Dinah just went on a stroll to see some of her girlfriends in town and then Shechem, (the way the name sounds sef!) saw her, and then the next thing is rape!
After Oga has brutalized the young girl, he starts forming love, bringing flowers, writing poems, and getting into her DM!
Absolute nonsense!
The great question is how does a person “rape” a person he loves?
Well, there is an interplay of lust, deception, and wickedness that is at work here.
At the point of rape, he was not in love but in lust!
After the rape, there was an illegal cleaving of their souls which led to wooing her!
Attraction After Distraction?
Would this medicine after death be worth it? Never. She had been defiled first, and the cleaving of souls was only a result of soul tie or soul bonding which comes as a result of sexual interaction!
This is exactly why we warn young ones to stay away from pre-marital sex.
Just as Shechem got confused in his soul and went after the one she defiled, confusion comes when pre-marital sex is involved.
To the married, adultery brings the same consequences. It is the reason a man refuses to pay his children’s school fees but gives money to a side chick for her excesses.
The lesson? Singles, stay away from pre-marital sex, it brings confusion to your soul and lust begins to rule. Where lust rules, agony of heart follows! Couples, stay away from adultery because it brings troubles and havoc as stipulated in the scripture!
Good morning!

In simple terms, capacity building simply means developing your skills and abilities to improve your performance and productivity.
This can be applied to your work or career where you aspire to become a better person.
This can also be applied to your relationship and or marriage where you want to become a better spouse to your loved one.
Building Capacity As Singles and Couples
Now, developing or building capacity can be done in a variety of ways which include sharpening yourself, going back to school, self-study and self-development, and so on.
For example, you can build the capacity to be a better husband or wife by giving yourself to study and research on how to become better and following through on what you learn.
Now, the major question is usually knowing what to do but never doing it for one reason or the other.
You know you should give yourself to self-study but the whole year is almost gone and you can’t point to one book that you have read successfully!
Your diary is filled with all kinds of instructions and wisdom, which you have never put to use. You listen to messages day after day but never have enough impetus to act on what is there!
Building Capacity As Singles and Couples
What is the thing to do? Here it is
Eph 3:14-16 (MSG) My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, [15] this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth. [16] I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit—not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength—
You need to ask for strength in your inner man so that you can do the things you have always known you should do, but you are not doing!
I love the word Amplified Bible used
Eph 3:16 (AMPC) May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality].
You need to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power!
A power that will go deep into your innermost being and personality, alter lazy attitudes, and give you strength to do what needs to be done!
I pray for you, to receive strength in your inner man in Jesus’ name!
Yesterday, while in church, I was getting ready to mount the pulpit when I was led to these verses and it was a spur-of-the-moment revelation. I would like to share this with you this morning. You are going to be blessed!
We have been looking at gratitude and this word only comes to validate it more.
Let’s dive into the river of God’s word!
2Ch 32:24 (MSG) Some time later Hezekiah became deathly sick. He prayed to GOD and was given a reassuring sign.
So this guy was sick and the doctor must have told him he would die. He prayed and God came through for him.
Now see the next verse.
2Ch 32:25 (MSG) But the sign, instead of making Hezekiah grateful, made him arrogant. This made GOD angry, and his anger spilled over on Judah and Jerusalem.
After God reassured him he wouldn’t die, he wasn’t grateful! Rather he was filled with arrogance. He never gave glory to God!
This made God angry towards him and the entire cities he presided over.
How many of us are right on this table, not giving glory to God, prayed for a job and after getting the job, refused to pay tithe, prayed for a spouse, and after the wedding, asking God what kind of marriage the is?
But I like what Hezekiah did.
2Ch 32:26 (MSG) But then Hezekiah, and Jerusalem with him, repented of his arrogance, and GOD withdrew his anger while Hezekiah lived.
God wasn’t pleased at his arrogance! But the guy was smart. He repented and you can do the same. Recent of arrogance and ascribe all gratefulness to God! I wonder what would have happened to him if God didn’t withdraw His anger.
Done Deal: He Will See To It
The next verse will amaze you!
2Ch 32:27 (MSG) Hezekiah ended up very wealthy and much honored. He built treasuries for all his silver, gold, precious stones, spices, shields, and valuables,
Wow! The devil didn’t want this for him when he made him arrogant!
As you give honour to God, you will end up wealthy!
And then check this:
2Ch 32:29 (MSG) He founded royal cities for himself and built up huge stocks of sheep and cattle. God saw to it that he was extravagantly rich.
He found cities! Wow! But that is not even what is tripping me! It’s the last sentence!
God saw to it that he was extravagantly rich.
This morning, as you decide to be grateful always, God will SEE TO IT that you are extravagantly rich!
This message is so vast and deep. Meditate on it. Good morning!
Every woman, regardless of her spiritual inclinations, has certain expectations from her partner. Today, we’ll explore a few of them.
She seeks a companion who knows how to play. Within every woman, there resides an inner child yearning for playful interactions with her partner. In every lady, there is a little girl who always wants to play with the little boy in her lover. In your relationship, remember to engage in playtime. Don’t be overly serious all the time; make her laugh, play games, and enjoy movies together.
She craves a mentor, not a lecturer. Every woman desires guidance rather than lectures. There’s a vast difference between the two. Avoid lecturing or sermonizing her; you’re not her teacher or pastor. Don’t quote scriptures angrily at her, it doesn’t work that way. Instead, mentor her with compassion, as it’s more effective and impactful.
What Every Woman Desires in Her Partner
She values honesty. Honesty is a cornerstone of trust in any relationship. Be truthful, as dishonesty can lead to cheating and heartache. It is the same heart that tells lies that will cheat. With truthfulness, you know you are on safe grounds. Commit to always being honest, as a truthful partner contributes to a truthful family. If he is an impulsive liar, don’t walk down the aisle with him.
She wants the freedom to express herself. Every woman appreciates the opportunity to express herself. Encourage her to share her thoughts and feelings, even if you don’t always agree. Don’t shut her up. Allowing her to talk is an emotional release, and it’s important not to belittle her or make her feel like an idiot.
What Every Woman Desires in Her Partner
She anticipates financial responsibility. Financial responsibility is a crucial aspect of any partnership. A financially irresponsible partner can lead to stress and frustration. Therefore, strive to be financially responsible, as it will greatly contribute to the well-being of the relationship.
In summary, understanding and respecting these desires can help create a strong relationship and marriage
In the complex realm of relationships, success is far from guaranteed merely because you identify as a child of God. Being able to speak in tongues doesn’t automatically equip you with the wisdom to navigate the intricacies of human connection. This is where self-improvement and the pursuit of knowledge come into play.
Go For Knowledge
If your goal is to tie the knot by the end of this year, ask yourself: how many books on marriage have you diligently perused? You see, being a child of God is a wonderful foundation, but it’s not a substitute for actively seeking wisdom and understanding in the realm of relationships. Your desire to get married should be complemented by a genuine commitment to improving yourself.
For the married, even after wedding, you have to keep studying and developing yourselves to learn more about what marriage is all about
One common misconception is that falling in love with someone automatically implies that God has led you to that person. However, it’s vital to discern whether your emotions align with God’s leading. Feelings alone may not necessarily be a sign of God’s plan for your life. While it’s true that God can guide you through your desires, it’s essential to be certain of His guidance before fully embracing those emotions.
The Challenge of Emotions
Once emotions become entangled in a relationship, deciphering God’s voice becomes a more intricate task. Emotions can cloud our judgment and make it challenging to hear His guidance clearly. It’s advisable to seek His direction before allowing your emotions to run wild.
On the other hand, couples are to be intimately connected emotionally with their spouses. If there is no emotional connection towards your spouse, that marriage can hardly work.
No-Nonsense Advice For Singles and Couples
Time and Emotional Bonds
For singles, spending time with someone has a profound impact on your emotional connection with them. It’s astonishing how feelings can evolve when you invest time with a person. This is a universal truth, and it’s important to be mindful of the company you keep.
The Danger of Inappropriate Connections
For instance, if a single lady declares her disinterest in a man but continues to spend time with him, she’s unknowingly fostering emotional ties. The more time you invest in someone, the deeper the emotional connection becomes. Therefore, it’s crucial to be cautious about the company you keep and avoid engaging in inappropriate relationships, especially with married individuals.
Conversely, couples who are not spending enough time with themselves will have their emotional tank on the low, resulting in several other issues and irritations that can complicate their marriage! Spend time together!
Divine Blessings and Guidance
In conclusion, May God’s favor shine upon you, and His mercy guide your steps. You will break free from the spirit of delay, and may you find the one meant for you. For couples, God’s love is shed aboard in your hearts anew in Jesus’ name!
Marriage is a significant aspect of our lives that is meant to span our entire adult years, an enduring commitment till death do us part. To ensure a happy and fulfilling marriage, we must be content with our spouse and with ourselves. Here, I present two valuable tips to help you achieve this blissful union.
Don’t Miss These Two Crucial Points
1. Let Go of Past Mistakes
In any marriage, challenges are inevitable. We are all a work in progress and bound to face both current and past issues. However, dwelling on past mistakes is akin to unearthing old wounds, and it signals a lack of forgiveness towards your partner.
Forgiveness is a cornerstone of a successful marriage. You cannot move forward or experience happiness if you’re constantly revisiting past grievances. Make an effort to release the past and resist the urge to shame your spouse with reminders of their previous mistakes.
It takes considerable maturity to keep the past where it belongs. Remember, what goes around comes around, and you may need forgiveness in the future. Embrace forgiveness as a divine virtue, and let it permeate your marriage.
`As singles, forgive yourself as well despite your past mistakes. The important thing is not to repeat the same errors. Forgive yourself and love yourself, so that you can be loved appropriately
In today’s fast-paced world, the problem of neglecting one’s spouse has become increasingly prevalent. Many couples find themselves prioritizing others over their life partners, leading to a lack of emotional connection.
To maintain a strong bond with your spouse, it’s crucial to focus on each other with undivided attention. Cultivate a heart-to-heart connection that transcends mere words and draws you closer together.
Resist distractions, emotional affairs, and wandering thoughts that hinder your ability to focus on your spouse. Let your partner continually capture your spirit, soul, and body. After God, the next is your spouse! Regardless of anyone else’s physical attributes, your spouse is your one and only. The key lies in maintaining the integrity of your heart.
As singles in courtship, avoid sexual intimacy in your bid to prioritize each other. Sexual sins will only welcome confusion into the equation.
In conclusion, let us strive for a deeper understanding and stronger bonds in our marriage. May your union be blessed with lasting joy and harmony in the mighty name of Jesus.
Communication goes beyond words; non-verbal cues play a crucial role in conveying feelings and emotions.
Pay attention to your body language, facial expressions, and gestures when communicating with your partner.
Maintain good eye contact, smile often, and use affirmative gestures to create a positive and warm atmosphere during your conversations. Liars are known to evade eye contact.
Communication Between Lovers
Time and Space
In a fast-paced world, finding quality time to communicate can be a challenge. However, allocating time for each other is vital for building a stronger connection. Create a space that is free from distractions where you can truly focus on one another.
Designate “unplugged” time, during which you and your partner can engage in meaningful conversations without the interruption of screens or other distractions.
This has to be done deliberately
Communication Between Lovers
Empathy and Understanding
Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. It’s a fundamental aspect of effective communication. To communicate better in your relationship, put yourself in your partner’s shoes and try to understand their perspective.
When your partner expresses their feelings or concerns, validate their emotions and show understanding. This helps build trust and connection.
Communication Between Lovers
Conflict Resolution
No relationship is without its conflicts. However, how you deal with these conflicts can make all the difference.
Learning effective conflict-resolution strategies is essential for maintaining a healthy and communicative relationship.
When conflicts arise, focus on the issue at hand rather than resorting to personal attacks. Practice active listening and compromise to find solutions that work for both of you.
Honesty and Transparency
Honesty is the bedrock of trust in any relationship. Open and transparent communication is essential for building a strong and lasting bond with your partner.
Be honest about your feelings, thoughts, and concerns. Sharing your vulnerabilities can lead to a deeper and more authentic connection.
Build trust through sincerity and you will enjoy yourselves more! When trust is broken down in a marriage, it’s like a house whose fence is broken. It would be invaded easily!

This devotional aims to provide you with invaluable insights into how lovers can communicate better, enhancing the quality of their relationship and, ultimately, bringing them closer together.
How Lovers Can Communicate Better
The Power of Active Listening
A major aspect of effective communication is active listening. It’s not merely waiting for your turn to speak but genuinely absorbing what your partner is saying.
I used to be right on this table! I would just be looking for something with which to give a resounding logical reply without actually listening! Can you imagine? Listen well and deliberately and you will connect more with your spouse!
When you actively listen, you show respect and empathy, which are key ingredients for successful communication.
Practice active listening by maintaining eye contact, nodding in agreement, and asking open-ended questions. This creates an open and inviting atmosphere for your partner to express themselves.
How Lovers Can Communicate Better
Choose Your Words Wisely
Words can cut and lacerate! Words can proceed as weapons of massive destruction tearing everything apart that it collides with. It can also be an agent of peace, a tool of tranquility, and a wrath killer! How are you using words with your spouse?
Words have a profound impact on our relationships. A thoughtless phrase can lead to misunderstandings and even conflicts. To communicate better with your partner, it’s essential to choose your words wisely and speak with kindness and consideration.
Before speaking, take a moment to reflect on your thoughts and emotions. This will help you communicate in a calmer and more composed manner.
