I was definitely not a trophy of contentment during my single days. I am still not, and I'm married! Yet God blessed me in spite of me (is that not ALWAYS the case?). In fact, God used "the broken road" to prepare me for who I am with now. I can say that with an honest heart. If you know me, what I just said will carry a lot more weight. Your singleness is not based on YOU. What a selfish mindset! You are single because King Jesus, in this particular season, is taking pleasure in your sanctification. And you should worship Him for protecting you from every mistake you could have made.Russhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03702102573718891846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14760407.post-1155012739744147602006-08-08T00:52:00.000-04:002006-08-08T00:52:00.000-04:00What if?

What if you died at this moment?<BR/><BR/>what if everything could end right this second?<BR/><BR/>Would you be firm in your faith to know that your eternal life is secure in God?<BR/><BR/>Would you be satisfied with your where you were at?<BR/><BR/>Would God?<BR/><BR/>It just makes you look over your life and realize how fleeting it is. How short the amount of times you inhale is before you breathe your last breath, before time is no longer a factor. And why its so important that you live for God, and not for yourself.<BR/><BR/>I dont really know what else to say. There isnt much else to say, I guess. <BR/><BR/>Your life is meaningful; you are meaningful. Your time here is precious, dont waste it away. God has a plan for your life. He does. Follow through. <BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>followthrough.. to bring glory.<BR/><BR/>the reason i say this is that last night, one of my friends brother was hit and killed by a semi truck while fxing a flat tire. <BR/><BR/>like, when i finally sat down in the quiet, my mind went crazy, and it was sort of a reality check to me. who do I live for? What do I live for?<BR/>surely a question i should ask myself alot more frequently. alot. more.<BR/><BR/>kepp this family in your prayers please. this is a prayer blog isnt it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14760407.post-1154670721939774692006-08-04T01:52:00.000-04:002006-08-04T01:52:00.000-04:00yeah, it has NOTHING to do with your attitude, and...yeah, it has NOTHING to do with your attitude, and EVERYTHING with God's sovereignty!<BR/><BR/>I have a married friend who said that she really hurts for some girls in her small group (she never gave names, and I don't know who the girls are in her SG--so it wasn't gossiping) that yell at their husbands or are just really mean.
