Teachable Moment

I was writing affirmations and I STARTED out scripture based, became impatient because I wanted to get done and was quickly rebuked for stopping and writing what "I" though sounded good and could help someone. I was quickly told not to get in the habit of "quoting" stuff that's just nice sounding opinions with no Word to back it up...We all do that sometimes...Unfortunately, back to where I started, lol...It was TRUTH and a TEACHABLE moment

Impatience

The following is GREAT WISDOM from the book Lady In Waiting (Jackie Kendall & Debby Jones) that has blessed me and I pray what I share does the same for you- Statistics often provoke single women to take more initiative rather than patiently wait for God's best. There are grave consequences for the single woman who does not choose to develop patience and wait on God's timing. Impatience to find a man can cause a woman to argue about her 'right' to date a man who is not Godly, maybe not even a Christian. In Joshua 23:12-14 the Lord warns His people not to marry unbelievers. God knows that an ungodly husband will end up being 'snares and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes'.

Every date is a potential mate. Marriage to a non-Christian brings pain

I’ll admit it I’m afraid to see what this world will come to in the future Nothing is a piece of cake anymore You’re lucky to even get crumbs off the street The Destitute stand out in the streets begging for change 80% of the day cars roll on by with no concern Times have definitely changed Are they for the better or worse? I’m thirty one But this economy makes me

This was written by my oldest brother, Alvin Buchanan. What’s wrong with people? They keep attitudes all the time Rob and kill each other everyday Rape and molest children People have a frightening thought process How do you what they’ll do next? Homes and businesses are burglarized Kidnappings have become frequent Parents are murdering their offspring Family is quick to stab you in the back I don’t understand people at all They take advantage of one another They say cruel things to hurt one’s feelings Spread rumors to defame character People envy, but only look from the outside People are very negative when they’re miserable I wish I could escape people! I don’t feel I’m built for real life Sometimes I feel like I’m something else People enjoy more lies’ than truth I guess it’s easier to deal with My heart goes out to these people I don’t think they know the harm they do in the world all the time If so, what triggers it off?
