He Was Into Me {8.18.14}



He was into me!
And I thought he was fine!
Tall, dark, and handsome.
I smiled at the thought of him being mine.

He was into me!
He made me laugh and smile.
Felt like I'd known him for years
but it was only a short while.

He was into me!
We would talk for hours!
I'd try to hang up the phone but it felt as if
he was pulling me with superpowers.

He was into me(!)
but it was clear to see. . .
A relationship with him
just could not be.

You see. . .

I was into him!
I mean- I was impressed!
Still- something about the situation
had me feeling distressed.

I was into him(!)
but I'd soon have to choose.
And my relationship with Jesus
was way too much to lose!

I was into him!
Yet God meant more to me.
And I knew- from temptation
I needed to flee.

As much as I was into him. . .
I'd made a vow
to maintain my standards.
I couldn't and won't abandon them now!

Whether you're into him.
Or he's into you.
Here's some encouragement:
Do what you know-> in your soul is true!

If within your heart,
you begin to realize
that your standards-
a dude would cause you to compromise. . .

I hope you find strength
and you make the right choice.
Choose to focus on the love
that's found in God's voice.

Don't settle for someone
who's not meant for you
just so you can say,
"Yeah girl! That's my boo!"

Build up your love for God and know. . .
that in purity, there's strength.
Walk with Him daily.
Don't keep Him at an arm's length!

So ladies. . . whether or not
you get to meet "the One,"
I pray that you'll live holy
and be able to hear. . .

"WELL DONE!"

The Unexpected Temptation

I know. . . It's been time for me to write something new.šŸ™ˆ However, coming across this video from Jackie Hill Perry to prompted me to actually get this post out. One line pierced my heart. "When you have a gift that involves words, one of the ways the enemy will tempt you is to be silent." Wow!  I hone stly think silence is one of the last things that comes to mind when people think of temptation. According to Oxford Languages, the definition of temptation is  the desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. I can hear someone asking, "How can silence be wrong or unwise?"  Oh. . . Hold on for just a minute and it will come together. There are times when our obedience [to speak] may be the key to someone else's blessing . Your words and actions could essentially provide healing for your brother or sister in Christ! In the book of Revelation, we read, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.....

Let It Go {One Year of Freedom}

"...let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us." - Hebrews 12:1 (KJV)  **If you don't get anything else out of this post, I pray that you realize. . . you really can do all things through Christ - especially when your desire is to please Him! He will strengthen you to walk uprightly before Him.** ---------- Believe me when I say. . . Knowing what you need to do is very  different from actually doing it. Sometimes it is difficult to do what we know is right. That's where I found myself, in November and December of 2022. Let me take you back. . . As a single woman (just in case anybody needs clarification šŸ˜‰), I was opening myself up to meeting guys and getting to know them when I crossed paths with  Royal . Initially, we seemed to have quite a few things in common: faith, a desire to serve our communities, a strong love for our families, and. . . a way with words. (*insert face...

7 Revelations for 37

I really was trying to get through this birthday- well- get away with not writing anything specific, but all of a sudden, ideas started flowing. So. . . Here are 7 Revelations that I am trying to be mindful of as I go through Year 37. 1. Proverbs 4:23 is a command (not a suggestion). It reads, "Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life (AMP)." Other translations say to keep or guard  your heart. . . In other words, be selective and protect it. Watch what you allow to enter your heart. Seeds may be planted by various circumstances, people with whom you interact, etc. but you do not need to allow everything to take root. Things like bitterness, frustration, and envy will try to find a home within you.  Beware: Whatever you allow to take root in your heart will be reflected through your actions! 2. This goes right with Point #1. Be willing to have uncomfortable conversations. Clearing the air can also help to keep your heart [and spirit] c...
