AMEN, Faithwoman! Well said!

This is one of those things where you can say "If only I'd known then, what I know now, it would have been done a WHOLE lot different!"
I can put in a "ME TOO"! on that.
I pray that there are more people out there to encourage abstinence in singles and faithfulness in marrieds.
A study of covenants would be good to teach about marriage and the relationship it has with Jesus and the church. Fascinating study that firmly set my convictions that my past behavior was WAY off track! And that we need to encourage the young people to keep ON the right track!

Fluffy,
I have prayed and asked the Lord if there is somehow he can use my brokeness to help others and to help others see what sexual sin can do to them, for him to guide me and lead me in that direction.
I have found for me it is the hardest fleshly desire to overcome. But I have been sexually pure for 4 months now ( and when I say sexually pure.. I mean no actual sex of any kind with another person).. now sexual purity is so much more than just that though.
Just like the magazine that called out to me while waiting to pay for my food in the gift shop.. the cover story.. all about finding your man's G spot.. the next article on the cover.. Great sex for you..
then right below it.. an article on . how to tell if your date will rape you.. I mean cut me a break! First you advertise how to find the man's G spot, articles about great sex.. and then one about rape.. I have to be honest.. I picked it up.. and started reading the G spot article.. after a few minutes,.. I thought what the heck am I doing! I am just torturing myself.. bad thoughts.. thoughts of where I had been.. always reading, wanting to learn about great sex.. I know where it led me.. nowhere.. oh yes maybe a few minutes of pleasure.. but now I have eternal pleasure to look forward to.. and honestly when I am walking with the Lord each moment is so much more peaceful and happier than I ever could have imagined. I put the magazine down and confessed and prayed.

I struggled last week-end big time.. I had a yearning to write about it which I will do soon.

So anyone struggling with wanting to feel loved, feel pleasure, feel satisfaction, turn to the Lord.. give him your heart, you will be so loved and feel so complete.. he is always there for you and for me, he is just waiting to be your Mr. Right.

Hugs Faithwoman

Default I just got to Perfect it....

Ok, so I pulled up to the little local deli. As I got out of my car, there were 7 or 8 young girls walking up to the store, 3 of them had heavy makeup on and high heels , the one girl told the other she looked like a whore.. I made my purchase and came back and got in my car. I did not drive away right away. there was a young group of boys on the side of the deli. The girls came out of the store and sauntered over to the boys. they were all chit chattting. I saw the one young man take money out of his pocket and hand it to the one girl.. ( the whole time the voice in my head said.. get out of the car.. now.. get out. go.. I sat there). The girl took the money and put it down her bra..

The voice kept telling me get out .. go now.. I sat there.. The girls started down the street.. the voice said GO NOW.. ( mind you I just had a pedicure done so I had wet nail polish and this little flippy things on that the shop gave me to wear home. I whipped them off, whipped my shoes on , got out of my car and ran down the street. Hey girls , you got a minute? They stopped in their tracks and came back to me. I said hi , my name is Robin.. you might think I am the crazy lady of this street.
I just have to share something with you.

The girls ranged from age 10 -17.. I told them I had a daughter who was 15 that lived in PA.. and my daughter knew my whole story. I preceded to share how I made some wrong choices in life that left me with some bad consequences, but then how much Jesus loves us and he forgives. I asked how many knew Jesus, the one girl said she had never met him, the other gal said she goes to church once in a while.


I preceded to share my story of being positive for herpes, HPV and the like and how awesome God is and how he has changed my life around.
I shared what would happen if they got these diseases. I shared about Aids.. the one gal said , yes aids can get through the smallest hole in a condom. I shared how they do not need to find love through a boy, or a man that they can find love through Jesus.. I shared how I had always been looking for Mr. Right until I found Jesus.

We shared for a bit.. the one gal shared that she was still a virigin. I told her proud I was of her, and how proud God was of her. I explained about the right way of living , that God wants us to enjoy our friends, he wants us to have fun, but not in the wrong ways..

It went pretty well.. I thanked them for listening..
Now the part I need help on to perfect is the part of is how they ask Jesus into their hearts.. I need the most simple form of this. I need to be able to share it without rambling.. these teens on the street have a short attention span.. I have a tendency to ramble.

Open for suggestions,

Hugs
Faithwoman

and oh yes.. only one toenail got smudged through the whole thing.. lol!

Yes Lord.. I know you have a purpose for me that is why you yanked me out of my car in front of the deli.. Praises to you our mighty Lord for the strength.................

Oh, Faithwoman! It takes my breath away! How awesome is our Lord! Glory to Him that you were obedient! Glory to God that they were receptive and listened to you! Glory to God that seeds were planted in their young hearts!
How awesome it is!

I am the last one to advise you on what to say about accepting Jesus. I am ashamed to say, I have not witnessed to anyone like that.
Not that I havent asked for the opportunity! But I've either not been given any yet, or have been blind to them. God is kind of hard to ignore when He gets serious, isnt He? Maybe I"m still in training. Maybe my ministry is in helping 'already born-agains'.
I dont know. But then, I'm not going to sweat over it! Just keep your 'spiritual ears and eyes' open and the opportunity will come, huh?

About the magazines, that is something I keep trying to tell others: You have to be careful what you let into your "ear gate and eye gate". Be diligent about what passes thru. Because that is what feeds your spirit. You did well in putting it down, confessing and repenting! Too bad they have to keep those things right at the check out counter. Makes it difficult to NOT look at them!
Keep up the faith, sweetie!

Hey, Mark! Thank you for the link to the facebook! As soon as I have the opportunity, I'll check it out. I am on my mother's computer and will have to log off soon. But as soon as I get home and the chance, I'll look at it.
I ask because another forum I'm on has a link to one, and I wanted to know what it was before I signed up on it (facebook). I was just poking around and saw it. "What's this?" I clicked on it, and then it required a sign in and a password and I thought "whoa!" Lets find out about this, first!




My husband has arrived at my mother's house. We will take care of some business today (like show my mother how to use the riding lawnmower!) then leave tomorrow to go home.

Home.
I havent been home in about a month. I'm ready. I'm sorry to leave Mom here by herself, but its something that she will have to face eventually. But she is strong. It'll be rough, but she has her dad here with her, and her sister lives close. So it will be ok.

Default Innocence

Written this morning: May 24, 2008

I saw it out my front window. A young gal with her blonde hair blowing in the wind. A young gentleman with his ball cap on turned backwards. They were walking down the street hand in hand. Innocence, two young people innocent, unknowing of the world around them.

Little do they know what is in store for th em. Little do they know how their hearts will ache,. Little did they know, the trials and tribulations are coming their way. When we are young, everything is fresh, everything and many experiences are new. They are exciting. They all seem innocent.

As life goes on, and one ages, we look back to those moments. Those what appeared to be innocent experiences. We can now see how innocence can lead to a life of unwanted circumstances and consequences. I wish at times I could take it all back. Take back those moments thast lead to my unwanted circumstances and consequences. I can't take th em back. They happened., I chose to allow them to happen. But, what I can do is to declare my faith and trust in the Lord Jesus. He will direct my paths. He will make my paths straight. He will protect me and guide me.

See part 2 for conclusion

Faithwoman

Default Innocence Part 2

As I finished my last sentence, I looked out the window and saw them again. An urging came within to go and share what I wrote about them. I wnet to the end of the driveway and introduced myself. I said I wrote something about the two of you. Would you like to hear it? She said sure. So, I read it. She said that was beautiful! I don't think he was as comfortable. I asked her if she went to a local church here as I was looking for one. She gave me the name of a church that 3 other people had given me. The conversation continued. I asked what grade she was in school. She said she SHOULD graduate June 7th. He said he is a Junior. Her voice quavered she was struggling right now in life,. She has a little girl at home. She will go back and finish her education. She had most recently split with the father of her daughter. '

I ask myself, how many of us split from our Father? I shared with her that God will get her through this time. She needs to beleive in him and have faith in him.

As we parted our ways, I shared my cell number with her and told her if she ever needs anything, I am just one call away. Just as I remind all of you that God is only one call away. He is waiting for our line from us to him to ring.. he waits patiently.........

Faithwoman

P.S.. what a lesson on innocence for me..things are not as they always appear.. Praises to the Lord today for blessing me with the urges to write. I could not wait to get to a computer to share.. Hugs!
