Okay so I started reading this book today I found in storage...it's called "Knight in Shining Armor" It's about discovering your lifelong love...GOD. Wow I have only read like 7 pages and I am already stunned! It's all about how women must take the time to make the Lord their true Husband "For your maker is your husband"(Is. 54:5) The author. P.B. Wilson challenges in the book for you to sign a commitment to the Lord, that you would allow God to fashion you for your future husband, to commit the next 6 months to HIS construction, and for you to surrender any part of your life not controlled by Him. I am totally gonna do this, I have to. The area of dating, I have not done the best job of letting the Lord take full control...but this time I'm gonna do it! I've messed too much up trying to do it my way, so this time I'm gonna do it God's way...How exciting! I am just so glad the Lord has brought me to this point. I encourage all you ladies to do this with me. Stop looking, that's the man's job!!Proverbs 18:22 says, "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD" It's pretty clear the Lord has given to each male the challenge of seeking out his wife. Gen. 2:18 "It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him"
The song "By your side" by tenth avenue north says:
"Why are you looking for love, why are you still searching, as if I'm not enough?"
This is what the Lord is asking us women, why are we searching everywhere but in tHe Lord, we make it like God is not enough for us. Let's stop and find intimately our first Love, the Lord! He first loved us...

hmmm....so so so so so good. (I wanted to "like" this but obviously this isn't facebook.
ReplyDeleteWe are all His bride and we are constantly looking to each other for the love that only He can provide. Kind of a silly/stupid image when you think about it.
You take those 6 months Jenna. Let God show you what a bridge looks like and show you His intimacy. :) I'm praying for you, sis.
Dave, thanks so much! I am stoked about doing this....you are great bro!
