This is a little long again, I know. But my current thoughts. My main pain, is seeing a man quit. I dislike when I see a man leaving a woman. My heart aches when I see single moms, because, again I say, my main pain is seeing men “quit.” Is it just the culture? You can’t change the culture. Actually yes I can. They have lost a sense of endurance and willpower to fight. Their leadership and direction are slanted or shattered by lack of self discipline in their lives. Men, learn to hear the whispers of God and stay committed to your word.

Genesis 2:18 “Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.”

19 So the Lord God formed from the ground all the wild animals and all the birds of the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would call them, and the man chose a name for each one.

20 He gave names to all the livestock, all the birds of the sky, and all the wild animals. But still there was no helper just right for him.

21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. While the man slept, the Lord God took out one of the man’s ribs and closed up the opening.

22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man.

23 “At last!” the man exclaimed. “This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called ‘woman,” because she was taken from man.

•The only thing the man knew about her was that they only had one thing in common, the same rib.

•How many times does that happen? We have one song in common or one tv show that we like. But we don’t know anything about the other. So there’s more than having things in common. Worldly people have a lot of things in common but they end in divorce. So what’s missing? The struggle together; the endurance together!

•So even though Eve sinned and led Adam to sin too, they still stayed together.

Basically in Chapter 3:1-13 explains their sin

Genesis 3:14-19

•After what God said what will happen, after all the guilt and shame of what they’ve done, Adam still became the man that He should. He still stayed committed, knowing deep inside he had anger at himself and at her, but he didn’t bring the blame on his wife, but encouraged her, by naming his wife Eve, meaning “to give life.” Through their struggles together, Adam saw something in the woman that was brought out.

•Adam named her just like all the others, just like the animals, he just called her woman. But struggle brings out what’s inside to the outside. It brings in that closeness, that intimacy w/each other.

2nd Corinthians 4:8 “We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. (9)We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed (10)Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.”

•In all honesty, how many times do we do that w/God? Our struggle, what were really going through. But know this, that God is in the same boat as you, during that storm(Mark 4:35-41)you learn trust. Trust is the currency for Love.

Ephesians 3:17 “Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.”

•Don’t miss out on what God has for you.

•If Adam would of left Eve, what would’ve happened, they wouldn’t have came together to bring about Cain and Abel. Satan’s plan was to cause a separation and stop what God had commanded the man; to be fruitful and multiply, fill the earth and govern it(Genesis 1:28). So God wanted The Man to have a duty. So what ever God places in front of you, you must fill it. How do you fill? By obedience. The devil knew and saw the opportunity to stop Adam from obeying God to multiply. Adam can’t multiply without Eve. So the devil wanted to somehow remove Eve out of the picture by sin and trying to use the blame game on each other.

A little Revelation - If relationships ended every time there’s a conflict, marriage would be obsolete. Fight the good fight! Conflict has the “ability” to bring things closer together or further apart. It’s impossible to avoid it, easy to ignore it, and worth going through it.

Like my saying goes:
It’s not about finding the right person.
It’s more than being the right person.
But being a person that knows how to fight!

Love NeVeR GiVeS uP,

(1st Corinthians 13:7)

God’s Love is unfailing. Love like God, you’ll never fail.

Proverbs 18:22 “The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the LORD.”(NLT) //So we find a woman that’s already married? No. You find that the woman has met the qualifications and commitments of a wife before she is married.

Women, become the blessing of a man’s prayer and quit flirting. No point in finding a treasure that’s empty. Flirting and trying to find affirmation is like opening up your treasure chest to pirates that will misuse you, the treasure.

Remain hidden, so that the right guy who spends the time, spends it right, to find you.

God found us, we didn’t find Him. God gave us the treasure map to Him by showing us Jesus. God will give the right man the treasure map directing to the woman in due time.

The Holy Spirit is that GPS for the man to the woman. A GPS shows the quickest route to the destination. The Holy Spirit gives us men wisdom, discernment, direction, the patient endurance to commit to her.

And the woman’s part? Does a treasure get up and try to find someone to unlock them? No. Of course not. What if it’s a pirate? D:

Proverbs 31:10 An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels(Rubies).(NASB)

»>An “excellent wife” is compared to one of the most hardest gems to ever find. Rubies are the second hardest stones, right under diamonds as being the hardest.

»>Diamonds represent commitment, like as in marriage. It’s one of the hardest to cut, because you need another diamond to cut a diamond. You need commitment to shape commitment.
Right under the level of commitment is the excellency of a wife, she is the ruby.

»>If I, the man, had to be worried, i’d had to be worried about her more than my next paycheck or the next bill or payment on the house. The lack of money doesn’t compare anything to the lack of worth I’m giving her.

I will walk in CoRReCTioN and OBeDieNCe not PRiDe.
I know WHo I aM because I know WHoSe I Am.
My CHaRaCTeR and MiND develop daily.
I walk in HoNeSTY and iNTeGRiTY not GuiLT and SHaMe.
FoRGiVeNeSS is a LiFeSTYLe not a TReND.
I walk in JeSuS’ steps because He is PerFeCT and I am not.
God You are LoVe and have an uNFaiLiNG LoVe, an eVeRLaSTiNg LoVe.
It’s not that You have LoVe, You are LoVe.

I’m learning to be open with my voice. To be open about God’s glory through my life. But first, here’s a story of this boy I once knew and grew up with all my life. You’ll catch on, I promise :D …

There was this little boy I once knew. He actually was a loud kid, even though he was an only child, no brothers, no sisters. In fact, he was so loud that in the fourth grade the teacher put his desk against the wall because he was so disruptive. So he would face a wall the whole year, but he amused himself by finding small animals in the wall ridges. He wasn’t really good in school. In fact, he was put in all low classes, and he would get all D’s. Everyone just called him stupid, and he went with it as something to get noticed. He liked when people would call him names because he actually got noticed and thought he was respected. It would take him several hours to do his homework, he would cry to his parents cause his homework was to hard for him. His teachers would always call up his parents and say he is difficult to teach. He had ADD, it’s were learning and communicating was difficult.

When middle school came, a lot of his friends went to a different lunch, and he ate lunch all alone the whole year. For once, he felt what loneliness is. He didn’t have that many friends he can talk to. Something quickly bound him inside. People would bash on the kid, calling him dbag, the f-word, and they would slap his face and call him the B-word. He didn’t stand up for himself, because he thought this is what friends do. And when he got some new clothes, he would sometimes hide because he was afraid that people would pick on him again. And when they did, he would go home afterwards and throw his new clothes away and just stuck with blue jeans and a black, gray, or white t-shirt. Just plain and simple. He didn’t want to be seen in fear of people’s sharp words. He lost his freedom to express himself.

All his so called friends listened to secular songs, while he secretly listened to classical music. His mom gave him a keyboard and he found his way to express himself without words. Nobody taught him, he just played whatever because he was passionate about it. When he was 11 he would turn on classical music in his room and conduct with a pencil because he was so passionate about it, he loved it so much, that his dream was to become a classical musician one day. Silly thought right?

When he would help out his dad, his dad wouldn’t let him do much, he always said to him, “Your gonna mess it up if you TRY.” He was so scared to try anything in fear he would mess up, not knowing the consequences or outcome. The next thing his dad indirectly taught his son is that, “There’s no such thing as a true friend, it’s best to do it yourself, because no one is there to pick you up, all they want to do is use you.” Those words never left him. High School confirmed those words.

As high school came, his classmates or teachers would generally ask what he wanted to do, he replied, “a classical musician.” His so called friends just laughed at him, and he got discouraged time after time. Those words slowly prevented him of opening up to anyone. He completely shut down inside unknowingly. With that, he didn’t develop a lot of social skills, and he would always stutter his words, so, he just wouldn’t say anything. He lost the freedom to express himself. He didn’t know how to inflict pain upon himself to take it away. So everyday he unknowingly screamed inside these words, “Would anyone want to listen?!”

All he wanted was to be encouraged about his dreams, but how can he, if he didn’t open up.

He met God at a drama at his church, he came to the alter and instantly fell shaking under the glory of God, he got saved and filled with the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

If you haven’t got it, that small boy growing up was me.

God called him to ministry, where he stands as just a second year going into his third year. But still had this fear, for years, of being creative. He was afraid to Just Be.

And once again God tells him his worth.

When a person experiences the Glory of God, they can never be the same. There is a baptism. If you put a white cloth into a bowl of red die, and when you take it out, it’s not a white cloth anymore, you now call it a red cloth even though you know it ‘was’ a white cloth.

When you submerge yourself into Jesus and you come back up, you are a completely different person, not recognizable of ever once being a white cloth, or the old person. But now you are now instantly a different person.
