single in a married workplace

Where I work I am the only single one there. Well, let me tell you at times it can be a challenge. I get to listen to all the woman talk about their husbands. Which is usually not in a favorable light. I think wow this is an amazing opportunity to sit back and listen I mean really listen to the unhappiness. A chance to speak up and speak faith about not putting all your love and trust into one person or thing. Do I? No. Fear? Yes. Of what? Man? Yes. Odd to realize this when I know what God is capable of. I have been down that shaky misguide, rose colored glasses path before. God in his has grace delivered from that. Did I mention God is an amazing God? Well, he is you know!! It says in the bible all things are possible with God, so I am claiming this verse to help me step out in boldness of faith. First I am going to into my prayer closet for a little one on one with my heavenly father. I'll get back with you and let you know how it turns out, and if you have any suggestions feel free to share your biblical words of wisdom.

courting

During worship in church today we were singing a song that had the phrase about being the bride of christ. This to me means as a church we are in the courting stage. We are to keep ourselves pure in our intent in all things that we do. In our ministry, in our outreach to the lost, or even in our interactions with our fellow believers. We are called to be set apart from the world. I challenge you to be the bride worthy of our heavenly father, by being pure in all the things that you do. It is not an easy challenge unless you go into with prayer. Have a good week and keep the faith it is an amazing thing to have.
