Lost Values!
wow that has been a subject surrounding me ALL
week and weekend. First off, I have to say that I had an awesome weekend of
fellowship! I have just been so blessed being around such positive influences,
learning and growing in the Lord, worshiping with others, and feeling the Holy
Spirit just fill the room. Praise God!
I've been single for 8 years. I've had many people during
this time try to set me up with men saying He has great values! Oh my...that
could mean anything. To a worldly man, HIS values are great. To a Christian
man walking with Christ, HIS values are great. It all depends. I am Christian
woman walking with Him, I am 36 and live a life of purity. I will NOT have sex
until I am married and although I think that is great.....many (MANY!) men do
not think that it is a great value I have! What are your values? The Bible
says.....
Follow anything that makes you want to do right! Pursue
faith and love and peace. and enjoy the companionship of those who call upon the
Lord with PURE hearts. (2 Timothy 2:22)
Seek first the kingdom of God and His
righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well (Matt
6:33)
If you keep yourself pure, you will be a utensil
God can use for His purpose. Your life will be clean, and you will be ready for
the Master to use you for every good work. (2 Timothy 2:21)
Evil desires lead to evil actions and evil
actions lead to death (James 1:15)
Lord, I thank you for your unchanging love.
That you loved me when I was living a worldly life with unclean values. I
PRAISE you for your glory! I SEEK you during those times of weakness, when the
enemy tries to tempt me with worldly people and desires, I TRUST you, that
you'll never leave me or forsake me. Lord, I know that you are using me to bring
others to Christ, Lord, I know that through all of these storms that you have
awesome blessings in my future. Father, I know that I will be rewarded for
this life of purity and have eternity with you. Lord, I lift all of those up in
prayer that are stuck in worldly values, that they may seek you and have
everlasting peace and joy. You are my light, my rock, my strength and my
refuge. In Jesus' precious name, AMEN!!!!!!
