This poem came about months ago after receiving negative
comments and feedback about how I choose to live my life. I’m not perfect but
the more time goes on, the closer I get to God, the more I want to do things
His way in every area of my life. Some people may not understand and I’ve come
to terms with the fact that not everyone will understand. I’ve also come to
terms with the fact that even some Christians may not encourage you to live by
God’s standards; but discourage you by saying “You’ll be single forever, if
that’s what you’re looking for” yet I serve the author of time. Even if that
will be the outcome God will give me the grace to live it out. Some may think
that this comes from a place of bitterness, but truthfully it comes from a
place of full blown LOVE…for God and for me!
For those who are making changes in your life based on
your relationship with God and who He says you are and what you deserve, you
are not alone. Surround yourself with people who encourage and stay far away
from those who discourage you from doing what you know is right for you because
of God’s word.
Please remember that the more virtue we allow to be
snatched from us and our children through what we take in, the worst the next
generation will be. So don’t question it… correct it!
I'm done...
I’m done with casting my pearls before swine, in other words even looking at men who don't follow Gods design. You want me, seek Him and... Maybe I'll look your way, until then keep it moving, got no time for child's play. You see I have an assignment to do. To spread His word to the masses not open my legs because you want passion.
What's your vision?
God showed me mine, you don't
know yours that's fine. Seek His face and His will it shall all be revealed,
but don't expect me to follow you down a slippery slope for cheap thrills. I
was built to be a helper, but if you don't know who you are in Him you won't
see what He's placed within only my exterior.
Pretty face ✔,
small waist✔ Long hair✔. Don't
care....if that's all you see, then you’re blind and you will never understand
the intricacies of Gods divine design. You're attracted to His light that flows
from within me. When you seek to impress me with your worldly accomplishments,
you forget that my predecessor was heaven sent. Check the records, she was
placed in the garden to be Adams helper, and Gods teachings should have been
dealt with. So many blame the fall on Eve, but she could not follow where he
did not lead.
After the fall He spoke to us all, so that His
teachings didn't just flow through man and for woman's understanding to expand.
I'm not saying I'm free from sin, because we all fall short but I'm tired of
doing it the world’s way and having to abort the relationship due to disaster;
because you wanted to push past the....friendship.
When I look at your life I have
to see my future generations, because I was made to cultivate like Sarah
birthing forth many nations through Isaac. Not saying you have to be perfect,
just show me something that's worth it. You can't be scared to worship...not me
but God. You can't be afraid that you're going to look odd. If you can't grow
with me then you can't go with me. If you could submit to Him, no woman would
be afraid to submit to you.
So I won't apologize for the
fact that I'm opposed to your proposed "benefits plan” to shack and be led
by a man not fed by His word. No offense to anyone else, but I'll keep my place
on the shelf. Some say I'm running out of time and because of my beliefs a man
I'll never find...and that's ok because HE who finds a wife finds a good thing.
And preparation is key to withstanding... the test of time. I'm being prepared
to be the woman God made me to be so that when I get to the stage of being a
wife I'll do it faithfully. Regardless of what you say having guidelines
doesn't mean I'll be sitting on the sidelines forever. Just means I'm getting
better. So if you think I'm just full of speech or a crazy Jesus freak that's okay…
it’s NOT YOU I'm being prepared for anyway.😉
