THOUGHTS FOR THE ROAD....... LESS TRAVELED

Lessons learned for the Christian life.

All The Single Ladies

   Deuteronomy 7:3 You must not intermarry with them. Do not let your daughters and sons marry their sons and daughters, 4 for they will lead your children away from me to worship other gods.

   This one goes out to the single ladies that can't step away from those wrong boys. I know all about it, I was you... 20 years ago.... man that hurts to "say out loud"

   The truth of the matter is, (you are not going to want to hear this) you can't, won't, will never, are incapable of, may as well forget about, changing him. Listen to me, you can't save him, you can't fix him, you can't make him better, you can't want it for him and you can't wait it out. 

   Now, I know that he is going to tell you everything you want to hear. He will say the right things, act the right way, stop drinking, swearing, smoking __________ <insert his shortcoming here> but if he does not have an intimate relationship with God, if he has not come to the realization that he is a sinner in need of the Savior, if he isn't in The Word, if he doesn't respect your body, your morals, your family, if he does not go to church because he can find God at home in the lazy-boy.........sister, walk away.

   I am speaking from experience, this is a road that I want to spare as many girls from as I possibly can. The absolute only way you will ever find "THE ONE" is if you aren't dating mr. wrong. And before you even say it NO, God doesn't want you to marry a non believer so you can convert him. Yes, share your faith with him. No, don't share your bed with him.

 Could It Be Anthony Evans

It wasn’t worth it to give myself away
They didn’t deserve it but they had all of me
I tried to find myself in someone elses eyes
A broken heart is all they left behind
And now the question that was haunting me
Is somehow comforting

Could it be everything that I was looking for
Could it be everything that I was missing before
Could it be everything that I could want and more
Is only You Lord
Could it be the only one who really satisfies
Was always standing here right before my very eyes
Could it be You my Lord

It felt so perfect I thought I had it all
For a moment and then it all went wrong
Captivated by the all the lies
They used me and left this soul to die
And now the question that was haunting me
Is all I’m holding

Could it be everything that I was looking for
Could it be everything that I was missing before
Could it be everything that I could want and more
Is only You Lord
Could it be the only one who really satisfies
Was always standing here right before my very eyes
Could it be You my Lord

I wanted  so bad to be loved and to love
I wanted so bad that I gave myself up
Everything I had it could never be enough
Could it be, could it be you
