2, 3, 5, 6, or 10

Well I know the majority of my posts are about waiting or what people think of my commitment about not dating. My older brother is always teasing me about guys and how I should be dating. He thinks it's silly that I am waiting for THE one God has for me. Just yesterday we were discussing about Mount Zion and their rule about "No Dating" and I was saying I was waiting for that one God was going to send me. Of course my brother had something smart to say. I can't exactly remember how he started the question but it was something like "What if it means going through 2, 3, 5, 6, or 10" His girlfriend first thought he meant years, but he meant guys. I told him "No it's not going to be like that." "What if it is God's will?" My brother loves to debate about religion, even though he is unsaved. Sometimes you just have to change the conversation and go on and pray for them. Later on I thought of what I should have said. "God's will is not the same for everybody,
this is His will for me." Another time when we got on this subject he was debating about it and saying negative things. I told him something I had read off of another blog similar to these words "Would rather be given an apple that is rotten and half-bitten off, or would you rather have a nice, clean apple." (I am not condemning anyone, God has mercy and forgiveness, no matter what kind of mistakes that have been made. His blood washes and cleans us) I said all this to say this.. It's ok to wait and not date :) You don't have to date 10 guys to find out what you want. God knows the desires of our hearts and when we delight ourself in him his will and desires will become ours. We must sleep like Adam did. He made Eve for Him but he was asleep. We must also sit at the feet of Jesus like Mary. Martha was busied about and was complaining about how Mary was just sitting there. But Jesus told her that Mary had chosen the good part and it would not be taken
away from her. You can take that dating wise too. Be worried about finding the right one and start settling with just average. When you could sit at Jesus' feet and fall in love with Him :) For He satisfieth the Longing heart and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. I know the Lord has a beautiful God scripted love story if we just sit at his feet and wait upon him :D

Blessings & Love,
