chapel at calvary 10/18/04
okay i just felt so led to share this with all of you so here i go. okay so today at chapel, D. Leitz shared the story of how he met his fiance(spell?),they are getting married on sat., and well i have heard the story but everytime i hear it it makes me think, "Aaaaw! how cute!!" then he said something that i have really been thinking about ever since i posted love for the other rib and well what he said was, "she took off her purity ring and said 'i've been waiting for you.' " and i was like, "Aaw!! how cute!!" then he said how he had so many other girlfriends before her cuz he was so impatient. he said to God just before he met his fiance, "God, please take away everything that is not your plan for me." and a while after that but before he met his fiance, he met a girl that he was about to marry, but God told him "no!" so he said, "are ya sure?" and God was like, "yah! i'm sure." then he started saying how before he asked, well lets just call her nichole, nichole to marry him he would ask ppl, "so how did you guys know it was ment to be?" and they would tell him, "ya just know." and he was like, "GRRRR! I DON'T WANNA HEAR THAT!" but then the nite b4 he asked nichole to marry him he opened his bible and came across a verse that said that you both will find strength in each other's weaknesses. and when he knew that he was gunna marry nichole ppl ask him the very same question and he said, "...ya just know." and they did the whole 'GRRRRRR!' thing. it was a great chapel today. yes i did ask God to take away all the things that were not his plan and then i realized he has. now i know i must wait for...the other rib. i must be patient and i ask you who stuggle in this area to wait with me, cuz i can't wait to see the glorious guy that God has planned for me.

If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you’re sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that’s almost never the case." - Chuck Close[/color]

okay for those who think that i am getting impatient, well i've learned to be patient that's what i'm trying to say. i was calling out to those who felt like i did when i was impatient to be patient. yes i know easier said than done. that's why i'd like to form a thread for all to pray for one another on this subject. get it now? ^_^

thanks! but i wasn't really asking for prayer, but it helps with my new walk with Christ. do you need prayer in this too? i guess it's sorta like a prayer circle for waiting instead of going out and looking for the person that you want it to be when you need to be waiting for the one that God has planned for you since both his/her's and your birth, before that. i'm just saying wait and don't go looking. just stay still. do i make sense? it's just sumthing i had on my heart i thought i needed to share. made this thread isn't for everyone but maybe there is one person out there that feels like he/she wants to be loved and thinks that he/she will never be loved, so he/she goes looking for love and ends up in a bad relationship. if you are in one, please that you let God take complete control over your life in all ways and let his will be done.
sample: it's what i prayed:
dear gracious and wonderful Lord, i thank you for all things that you have done and made. i pray that you just take all things that are not of or for you in my life. no matter how much my flesh loves it. i ask all these things in Jesus Christ my Savior. AMEN!
after i prayed that, God started to show me all the things that i didn't need in my life. i asked God, "what about nick? is he apart of your will" and it was just like D. Leitz's insident, God told me, "no." i think, "are ya sure?" God said, "yah, i'm sure." and so now i don't feel like i did when i first wrote the prayer thread, "love for the other rib." i feel like i am already loved. by you guys and mostly by God. yes i did know before that he loved me but i started not to think a lot about him, so i made myself distant from him. this showed me he's not just sitting next to me, he's inside me, living, loving. it took both this and nathan to show me that. i owe a lot to nathan. he showed me that He does care and no matter how far in sin i am in He will always love me. thanks nathan!
you're my best friend!

^_^ It's funny, you saying you're not asking for prayers but everyone here is just clamoring to pray for you anyway. I think we should be thankful for -that- fact alone. LOL
I'm happy that God has given you the grace of being patient in g/b relationships and now, may be using you as a tool to influence others like you towards that good practice. Praise God! I'll pray for you anyway, that you'll be molded perfectly according to God's Plan for your future mate and that you'll be a blessing to anyone who crosses your path.

Its for the program True Love Waits. You make a commitment to be sexually pure from that day foward. So basically to wait until you get married and not to expose your self to stuff like porn. I did it this past spring. PM me if you have anymore Q's about it.
I like hitting things

well to tell the truth i guess i would never be able to get a purity ring. *hangs head in shame* i use to do the whole porn thing sadly. i don't do it anymore. i've asked for forgiveness and i prayed to God to make me stop and then i met a very dear friend and we stopped together. thanks to you man!

okay so i think i've fallen for this one guy but i wanna be sure about him. i've know him for only a short time but he brings me so close to God so often. please pray that God either stops these feelings or let me know if he is the one. this guy means a lot to me either way( friend or whatever). i don't want to be rid of him; i want to keep him as a friend if it's not God plan, he remind me that God is always there for me when i'm in a predicament. okay it now seems like i'm not waiting. okay pray that continue my waiting or whatever. okay i know what to pray for! God's will! that will work!! ^_^d
