I am counseling several right now both genders, and many of the things that are coming up, prove a past owie is causing current trouble, so this is for all of us who have asked the Lord for a Mate in Him. Rock

Poem Artwork

It saddens me to find, so many, Christian, men, and, ladies, without an, active faith

A love gone wrong, being, judged, or, abuse, at the hands, or words, of , a woman, or a  man.

These things add up to becoming cynical, if on the past you, dwell, and in your

mistreatment, stand.


He tells you to come to Him, at the foot of His saving cross


He'll take the OWies all away, and fill you with new hope

He'll give you faith abundantly, and replace what was lost.


 

So, don't allow, the anger,  feelings of unworthiness, or guilt, for having gone, astray

To keep you from calling out to Jesus, or, allow your hurt to grow

Or, make you doubt, men, or woman, at large, with prejudice, from another, day.


 

And in that state of fear and doubt, it's hard to, hear and see,

That not all, are alike, some truly love their Lord, and know how. thru Him, to love you, too

And without the blinders of doubt, a friend or, even a mate, this person, might, be.


So look for and demand, to see the things, that remain,


in those, that you consider, to be worth at least, a meet

And make sure your spiritually sound, yourself, or nothing, will either, gain.


 

For walls of resentment, of past hurts, and things, that went, wrong

will keep you at a distance, will bring on worry, and fear

Only He can knock them down, and bring you back where you belong


 

Go to Him now, bring all your pain, and lay it at his feet

before you claim you want a mate, to share your life with

Make sure you're not hangin on to things that spell, disaster and defeat.


 

And when you pray for a person, to come into your space

make sure your plea is not that they, will, fit into yours

but that you are ready, to become, a new ,one from two, no matter, the, place.


 

Don't take it, just from me, but search His Word, as to what He calls, you to.

and,
 know that for the, other, you must, live, and breath,  must, cherish, and adore;

And, all the things, our Lord commands, you're prepared, to faithfully, and joyously, give, and,  DO!


"But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, clarity, patience, persecutions, afflictions...but out of them all, the Lord delivered me."  Timothy 3:10-11:

Good wisdom here in this counseling. King Solomon had a house full. :) We need to turn our relationships and marriages over to the Lord to handle then all will be right.
Thank You Bro for this one.

This is the age of SELF or EGO. I come first, second, third etc. God is no where. It is when we give all to God that we solve our problem. Great write. Victor

VERY GOOD ADVICE TO THE LOVE-LORN SEEKING TO FIND CONSOLATION IN ANOTHER; NOT KNOWING THE LAWS THAT GOVERN LOVE AND MATTRAMONY = A
COMMITMENT THAT BINDS TWO TOGETHER TO BECOME AS ONE AND THAT THERE IS
NO ROOM FOR SELFISHNESS IN THIS HOLY ESTATE. MARGUERITE
I LIKE WHAT RHONDA SAYS==BEWARE OF CONTERFEITS ETC--MEANING, IN MY OPINION, DON'T LET YOUR IDENTIFY BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU. YOU ARE 'HIS' CREATION AND THAT IS WHO THE FATHER WANTS YOU TO BE.

ROCK,

Another of your great writes, expressing the woes of many who are sold out to Christ, and truly seeking a mate in His image. As you know, I counsel many of those also...it is painfully sad. So many want...without giving - or better expressed - without giving up, what God does NOT want for them!

I might add, beware of counterfeits...those who come as satan's "alternatives", to steal, kill and destroy what Christ hath created for you!

That is my advice to all who are seeking, including you, my fabulous Godly Brother.

Love&Hugs, Sis

Just as life during the pandemic was color-coded with different hues representing different levels of danger, life in its aftermath has become shaded in similar ways. As a self-styled “Seeker of Beauty with Beauty,” (borrowing from a quote by W.E.B.
