My wife and I are married for a year and a half now. We lost our first baby six months ago during the 2nd month of the pregnancy. In the first couple of months in our married life, everything has been a challenge. We've grown to know every little thing there is to know with each other. That resulted to over familiarity and often to misunderstandings and fights.



We decided to attend our church (Christ Commission Fellowship) couples retreat program in the hopes to get to know more each other in love. It was held at Harbor Lights Hotel in Cagayan de Oro. Thank God we did because we were blessed by all the revelations He has impressed on us during the retreat. Below are six things we have learned:

1. Couples Must Leave, Cleave and Be One Flesh

It is God's design for marriage for a man to leave his family, be with his wife and enjoy intimacy with her. If a married couple lives with the husband's/wife's family, conflicts will surely arise. Husbands are heads of the family so…

My wife and I were privileged enough to have attended our church couples retreat at Harbor Lights Hotel in Cagayan de Oro. Our stay was pleasant and enjoyable not to mention the things that we learned in the seminar/event.

The following are photos I took in the hotel.

I am always on the lookout for additional income streams especially when it's online and I can earn it from home. Recently, I have discovered 199jobs.com. This is a website where you sell your services for just 199 PHP. If you are familiar with Fiverr, then this, for me, looks like local version of it. This post is my 199jobs review.

I registered to the site and see if I can make some money out of it. Registration is pretty straight forward and if you have an email or a Facebook account, you are good to go.

I am a certified online marketing specialist. So, I listed my service as a website auditor under digital marketing category. You can see my service here.

On the day my listing was published,  I already received my first order. I finished the task within 3 days as promised from my sales copy then notified the buyer and the buyer completed the task on his end. After that, I received my payment of 159 PHP. 199jobs gets 20% of each completed order. That is how they make money.
