desc Walking in Fields of Grace: Hmmm...

Hmmm...

I happen to receive this email this morning. Actually, I was surprised to see this in my inbox, first of all because I do not know the person who sent me this. (But whoever you are, thanks!) Also, I find the message interesting. Maybe it's because I sympathize with whoever wrote this. (hehe...)

I was having second thoughts on whether I should post this here. But then I remembered some friends I've talked to recently who are sharing their love-life problems with me. (Hmm....it makes me think now, do I sound like Joe d' Mango? hehe...) I don't know if I am able to give them sound advice cause I guess most of the time all I could do is listen. But I do thank them for their trust and hopefully I was able to help them somehow. :)

So ladies (you know who you are), let me share this with you...


Saved & Single
-Author Unknown

What makes you think that just because
I am an attractive woman of Godly intelligence
That I'm incomplete without a mate?
Who told you that without a man
Something's missing from my life?
And if so,What would that be?

Love?
I love myself and more importantly, I love the Lord
He told me that when I delight in Him,
He will give me the desires of my heart

Security?
I have everything I need according to His riches in glory.

Intimacy?
Now, how's a man going to get to know me
When he doesn't even know who he is in the Lord
See, my Father told me
I'm above a ruby's worth
And a gem does not seek
It is sought

I'm single and that's all right with me
See, it's not that I oppose relationships
It's that I detest co-dependency
As a woman know it is not my role
To chase after any man
Esther 2:14 reads that
I am to wait on my king and when he's delighted in me. He will call me by my name.

My Lord does not intend for me to be needy or desperate.
I am to be Cherished, Relished, Valued, and Honored
It's not my job to convince him
Or convict him of that
My mate will already know it
And consistently show it
And he will stay on his knees daily
Not just to adore me
But to praise the Lord for
The virtuous woman he has found

So, when you see me by myself
I'm not alone
I know what I have coming to me
I'm single and saved, and right now that's all I need to be.

  • alam mo ba ate doths nung nareceive ko to sa e-mail from you, sabi ko "si ate doths talaga o.." pero ang galing eh, ang ganda ng article, and it really made me think especially these lines:
    "See, my Father told me
    I'm above a ruby's worth
    And a gem does not seek
    It is sought"

    I'm single and saved, and right now that's all I need to be. Amen to that.
