I recently heard a preacher say
That "women should follow men."
And I was sure I'd misunderstood
Until he said it again!
Oh God help our lost world-
Help us all to know
That You are the only one
Who can lead our way to go.
And please help the ego -
This darker side of men,
To open up to Your Love
And find their Hearts again.
So we can ALL take our place,
Standing side by side,
And fill this lonely gap
That's growing far too wide.
No matter which gender,
The ones we need to lead,
Are those who open a Heart
For Love to plant a seed.
Lovely indeed. Everyone knows men refuse to ask for directions when they are (frequently)lost. Thus it follows the preacher was confused when he suggested women should follow men. Patrick
"...For Love to plant a seed" .. yes!
Over the centuries so many men have felt threatened by women and have suppressed their potential and denied them opportunities, it's a shameful history.
And some preachers say the strangest things - yesterday, one was heard to say that Jesus was HIV positive!! Now where did that come from?
