THE RIGHT ONE

First we must allow our Heavenly Father to do the picking. And second, The decision for a mate must be made on a spiritual and intellectual basis before it's made on an emotional one. "What about love? Shouldn't that be the third?", you ask. No, and I'll tell you why. "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? (Jeremiah 17:9).

The heart is willful and is driven by its own agenda. It does not consider things rationally and intelligently - it just loves to love! Therefore you have to point it in the right direction: "Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life" (Proverbs 4:23). Whenever you meet a man or woman, you need to get clearance from God, check out his/her attributes, and then allow your heart to engage.

Dating exists not for mating; it exists for collecting data. I believe that the biblical design would be friendship, courtship and then marriage.

Friendship is two people walking together in agreement and accountability, learning and growing together.

Courtship follows the mutual agreement to commit to one another exclusively- it is the decisive turning toward the agreed-upon goal of the marriage altar. It is a period of laying a foundation and preparing your life together after marriage.

But dating? Well, if you do date, use the time wisely to gather these facts.

1. Check out the fabric.

Is the person mate material? Does this man or woman have an intimate relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ? Does he/she care what God thinks about their behavior? Are they accountable to God as well as another co-laborer in the faith? Accountability is an important factor. It is imperative to maintaining a Committed relationship. Is your potential spouse a member of the same family - the family of God? You need to have common interests and values and agree on the essentials of living day to day. You have a similar spiritual walk. You eat the same spiritual diet. You enjoy a lot of similar things. You have like interests, like goals in life, like opinions on basic life issues. You have had like experiences in your background. Though there is some truth to the idiom that opposites attract, like-minded folks fare better together. Furthermore, does he/she want to get married? If you want to be married and your dreamboat isn't interested, don't waste your time. Remember, women fall in love and get married. Men decide to get married and then look for a wife. Note the difference in order. So if a guy says he's not looking for anything serious, take his words seriously. If he's not going in your direction, get off the bus and wait for the right one.

2. Does this man want you? Is he pursuing you?
The man who is right for you will pursue you, and God's hand in the relationship will be clear. No guessing, no fleeces, no dead ends. Scripture says: "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives Favor from the Lord"
(Proverbs 18:22).

Note -who finds whom? THE MAN FINDS THE WIFE. From the beginning of time, God has transported men and women across the world in order to put them together. At the RIGHT TIME, He will bring that man (or woman) on the scene. In God's perfect design, the man is the one who recognizes his mate. Adam has no problem recognizing that Eve was his missing rib. You do not need to strategically place yourself anywhere. You don't have to help a guy out because he's shy! Men will do whatever they have to do to get what they truly want. The Man in your life should recognize you as the pearl of great price in his life and be willing to do whatever he must in order to gain your hand. If he is passive about gaining your affections, take it as a sign that he is not interested. Many a woman's mother has suggested that it is a good idea to marry a Man who loves you more than you love him. As cold as that sounds, it actually might be scriptural if you stop to think about it: "We love him because he first loved us" (1 John 4:19). Until then, take the ultimate chill pill. You don't need a bunch of men in your life to make you feel all right about yourself. You need only one man - your man, the one God has selected to select you. And trust me, the right man at the wrong time can be just as awful as the wrong man at any time. So trust God's timing in this. He is the ultimate matchmaker. Relax, sit pretty and allow yourself to be found. Again – WAIT until the man voices his intentions. He should take the lead in establishing the relationship. You may have an inkling that he is the one, but God will use the man to set the tone of the relationship. Allow him the opportunity to woo you - this is your first act of submission. Jesus set the standard for all men to follow. They should love us first. And they should lead the relationship.

3. The person in your life (especially the man) should not desire to move into your house, only into your heart.

A man who prepares for your future has made his intentions clear. A man who is husband material has the means to take care of a wife. He is a responsible human being who understands he needs to have something to offer. In short, a man should have the means to be a suitable lover for you.

4. Check out his or her friends.

Everyone knows birds of the same feather flock together, yet most men and women fail to see the connection between friends and the person. The friends a person has tells you a lot about the person that you haven't seen yet. They reveal things about the persons character that might be hidden when they are on good behavior. Everyone knows how to put their best foot forward. Don't stay focused on the foot, check out the rest of the body as well!

5. Check out their parent relationships.

How does he treat his mother? What kind of relationship did she have with her father? This is your preview of how he or she will treat or interact with you. There are lots of men who, because of a negative relationship with their mothers, really don't like women, yet say they do and visa versa for women. Unresolved issues between mother and son, son and father, daughter and mother and daughter and father continue between husband and wife.

6. Remember that the persons family reveals the cloth from which he or she is cut.

Take note and decide whether you want your future to look like the persons present family situation. Not to say that this will be the case, but it's always good to understand where a person came from and what they experienced because some of those past family experiences can impact their present day reality as it pertains to relationships.
<o:p>
7. Check out the patterns of life.

Do you see repeated cycles of drama? Broken relationships? Problems in making commitments --including the job market? Mood swings? Is a problem always someone else's fault? Does the man embrace responsibility or shirk it? Does he or she keep promises? Is he a man of good reputation? Remember all garments look wonderful hanging in the store, but with wear, some begin to unravel. Give yourself time and space to check out the person. Time will always reveal whether or not he or she is made of the right stuff.

8. Does this man have a vision for his life?

Is he running with that vision? Remember, God decided Adam needed help once Adam got busy DOING his assignment. As we saw Adam, a man doesn't need help until he is busy doing what he was created and called to do. Is the man in your life guided by sense of destiny and purpose, or does he just allow life to happen around him? A man who is not certain of his mission can be a most miserable person - and you'll be miserable too if you know where YOU want to go in life. A man who has vision is not intimidated by a woman whose mission statement is clear. He will be your best ally, cheerleader and assistant because he wants you both to make it! A man who cannot be supportive of your achievements because he is floundering in a sea of uncertainty over his own life is not a healthy partner to have and to hold forever. Creating dependencies or feelings of obligation is not the way to get the best out of your man. Somewhere along the way, he will resent you and flee from the smothering burden of obligation he associates you with. You want a man who is firmly anchored in his identity in Christ. Remember, we are looking for a man who will be priest and leader of his home. His first instinct should be to want to cover you, redeem you, and provide for you. Your job is to decide if this is the man God has ordained for you to complement.

9. Complimentary.

Do your talents and gifts complement each other? Do his gifts, compliment yours? What about your temperaments? Do you see the two of you as an effective team capable of bringing blessing to the lives of those around you? Do your futures mesh? Can you coordinate your gifts in an attractive and effective way? This is why knowing your purpose is so important. Make sure your hearts beat for mutual causes . If the person you meet makes you feel that you need to completely reinvent yourself, something is wrong. This is where I ask you to consider the relationship in terms of cost. Is this relationship expensive spiritually, emotional or physically? Does your longing for a mate make you willing to forfeit who you are in the process? Or does he or she see you as the gift that you are? The man or woman in your life should consider you a rare find, a priceless jewel-because of you he or she is getting ready to get blessed big-time! Any relationship that causes you to feel unworthy, unlovely, unacceptable, undesirable or that you have to work for love, is too expensive! God has called the man to cover, protect and provide not only materially for a woman, but emotionally and spiritually as well. And the woman is to be a compliment with her own strength and abilities. You should both be richer in mind, body and spirit for your union.


10. Does he (or she) have a healthy love and acceptance of himself (herself)?

Make sure the man/woman in your life has taken time to heal from past relationships and has made peace with themselves. How he or she cares for themselves is how he or she will care for you. A persons relationship with! God is crucial here. Love for oneself will only be as strong as their love for God. This is not something that you can impart. You cannot be his or her savior or teacher. That is out of spiritual order. A man's rightful place is as the priest, he should be leading you to a richer relationship with Christ. A woman's rightful place is along his side. If the man or woman is causing you to compromise your faith destabilize your walk, if he or she is leading you into sexual sin or causing you to be distracted from your commitment to Christ, the relationship is too expensive. Offending the Lover of your soul, who promises you eternal love, is too high a fare to pay for a ride that has a limited run. If you and your man or woman can't soar in the Spirit, when the force of your love for another is tested by the pull or gravity of the world, your union will not be able to survive.

YOU ARE NOT FOR SALE!!
So you decide. How much is your! life worth? How much is your love worth? You will be able to accept only what you believe you deserve. God himself calculated the worth of your love and decided it was worth His life. He now pledges you His love for eternity. Yes, Jesus sets the example for all others to follow when He paid a ransom for His bride. Should you expect less from a mortal man or woman? Throughout the Biblical age, men were willing to pay the cost for what they truly desired. The truth of the matter is, everyone knows that anything worth having, costs. And no one gets a ride in this life for free.

Our prayer: Dear Heavenly Father,
I confess that I have not always been as careful as I should've been with my heart. From time to time, my desire for love has caused me to leave my heart in the wrong hands. I now commit my heart into Your hands for safekeeping. Please help me to stop being so impulsive with what you deem so precious. As I learn to celebrate Your love for me, let me learn from Your example what a bridegroom and bride should really be like. Help me to never settle for less than what You desire for me. As I embrace You as the Lover of my soul, keep my affections in the haven of Your own heart. As I rest in Your love, make me more discriminating of those who approach me. I ask that You take over this area of my life. Keep me from those You know would hurt my heart. I invite You to set a hedge around me and keep me from all who would draw me into unfruitful relationships until the day you present me to the mate that You have selected for me. Grant me the discernment to recognize him or her as they recognize me. Cleanse me from the temptation to typecast the men or women I meet according to what I see. Help me to trust in Your knowledge and lean not on my own understanding. I know that You know what is best for me; therefore I yield to Your choice.

In Jesus Name. Amen.

Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius.

Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius.

You are exactly right. If love was all it took to stay together we would still be together, but when drugs come into the picture, and I have to admit, I did them for a while ( I had a son who died 8 years ago and thats where that led me) but I chose to better my life and in doing so, I had to leave my husband and marriage and start over. But it has been good. My kids are happy and setled, I am happy and evewry day is a blessing from God.

I had written this poem several months ago. I am not dating anyone right now and thats okay too. I know that God is in control and He will send me the right person art the right time. I am happy either way at this point.

I'm tired of starting over and finding someone new
It's one of the hardest things I have ever had to do
When will I ever find the one God has for me?
I thoght I had found him but I gues I just can't see
There must be someone out there who is the true love of my life
One who won't cause such heartache, who won't put me thru such strife
All I ever wantedwas to be someone's wife and a mother
I have my beautiful children, now I long for the other
When will I ever find him/ Where is the man of my dreams?
I had someone I loved so much, but it just won't work it seems
I long for the day when I find true peace and happiness
To have someone just to hold me with love and tenderness
But until I find him, on this journet of life I will continue to trod
I'm praying for true happiness and I leave it in the hands of God.

You asked me what I wanted, what was it I would do
You asked me if I was only going to be with you
I told you your'e the only one and you made me think you care
I told you n ot to tell me lies, for I was already there
I never did ask you the same, would you only be with me?
I only tried to get to know you and I hope that you can see
I know your'e very busy, as I am busy too
I only wish that now and then I could talk to you
I don't expect anything from you and I don't want you to run
I don;'t want to fall in love right now, but your'e still the only one
What I have given to you, I don't just throw around
And I think that what I need right now is something that can't be found
I don't know what I want or need and I think until I do...
I'd like to do what I've been doing, and do it just with you

It's a long and winding road on this journey from where I've been
I've paid the price and had to reap for sowing a life of sin
But God was always there for me, even when I was wrong
The road behind was rough,but the Lord has made me strong
Sometimes I look back again, but not because I'm proud
But because my life is so much better since to the Lord I bowed
He is my comfort and every day I am so blessed
I want to do my best for Him until I take my final rest
I thank the Lord each day and as I bow my head
I pray that just as before, He be with me on the road ahead.

Wow! I wrote this about a guy..but the comment just before this makes me see it a new...Thats good. Thanks

I never thougt I'd love someone more the longer they're away
I wonder how much more I'd love him, if he could only stay
I have always heard it said absense makes the heart grow fonder
I never thought it was true, but now I sit and wonder
The time we shared was so short, it semed but just a minute
Now my lifes seems so empty and incomplete without him in it
MY days seem so long, and the nights ade longer still
Will it ever change? I think someday it will
Maybe someday we'll meet again and it will be just as before
Or maybe for my life, God has something else in store
I only pray each day for his peace and happiness
Because he rought back to me such joy and tenderness
If I seee him again, or if I don't, I know it is God's will
But I hope that he remembers me and knows I love him still.


This is another one for my friend who is now in Iraq. He was the first person I had anything to do with after my divorce, and I have moved on since then, but I do have fond memories, still consider him a friend, as he does the same to me...and I do still love him for being there, even for the short time that it was...over a year ago

Today as I sit by the river, enjoying the nice sunshine
My mihnd takes me back and I remember days when you were mine
I remember the day I met you and your arms around me I feel
We both said it was so easy, it was comfortable and it was real
At first I was so scared that you were too god to be true
But in just a very short time I learned to let go and love you
You loved me just as I was but you inspired me to be even more
I started to dream of a future and what life with you had in store
Now all too soon it is over, that future with you at an end
I tell everyone that I am fine, but really it's all just pretend
You said that you don't miss me, but I'm telling you I truly miss you
But I won't let myself get bitter, for I'm better for having known you.

You are still my husband and I am still your wife
You have been the one true love of my entire life
We had so many problems and everythihng went bad
Not having you in my life makes me so very sad
I don't know if we'll ever get back what we have lost
Our lives got too messed up and oh how high the cost
Can it ever be the same? Does our love have a chance?
Or do we walk away having had our final dance?
I don't have the answers, only questions to ask
Our life together has been a very trying task
Please always know I loved you with all my heart
My heart and soul belonged to you from the very start
Now our lives are so diferent, we have diferent goals
But the love we have shafred will forever bind our souls
I want yo to be happy and I want to be happy too
If we never find our way back together..forever I love you.

ok, this one I wrote to my ex when we first were separated. He got mixed up in drugs and stealing and I could not deal with that life...sometimes we have to walk away, either for ourselves or maybe our kids, but that does not mean we dont love the person.......

Have you ever loved someone and know they didn't care?
Have you ever been with them but feel like your'e not there?
Have you ever felt like you were just empty and alone?
Have you ever longed to just hear their voice on the phone?
Have you ever just wanted their arms around you tight?
And just to be next to them and feel safe through ther night?
Have you ever wished you could see the smile upon their face?
Or wished that you could hold them in a long and sweet embrace?
Have you ever wanted to share just one more kiss?
Have you evere felt lonely and know it's them you miss?
If you have ever felt this way then you know what I go through
For this is how I feel, and it's all because of you.

Thanks for the comments. I have said that some people leave our lives and we are bitter, but in this case, I was bettter for having known him

We once were so happy; you made my heart glad
Looking back on our love today makes me sad
You were my heart; the light of my life
I was so happy just being your wife
Now our love has fade and our life together died
Yesterday I remembered your smile and I cried
I miss you so much, I wish you could see
What the choices you make are doing to me
It's over I know, this week is the end
I try to be happy, but it's just pretend
I'll always love you and I'll never forget
The way you smiled on the first day we met
You made my knees weak and made my heart melt
My love for you is like a love I never before felt
So please remember now as we go our separate ways
I will carry you in my heart for the rest of my days.


I wrote this for my ex husband the week out divorce was final..

I want to bere thee for you; can you not see?
But how can I help you if you won't let me?
I want to get to know you, to see where it goes
I thougth you wanted the same, but now, who knows?
I felt that you were the answer to a prayer
I let myself like you and I started to care
Now I find myself more weary with each passing day
I want to be there for you, but I don't know what to say
I know you've been hurt and I know you are sad
I wish I cuold be the one to make your heart glad
I know that with time, God will work it all out
He can heal a broken heart and take away the doubt
Just know that I love you and that I care
And when you are ready I will be there.

When I first got to know you, you made my heart go pitter-patter
I could look into your eyes and nothing else on earth would matter
Our time together was so brief and it was intense from the start
The day you said good bye to me you took a piece of my heart
You made me feel special and with you I felt so good
You helped me find parts of me I never thougt I would
I knew from the beginning that you and I could never be
But part of you lives in my heart and it keeps reminding me
I have written you many poems and I think of you every day
There are just so many things that I never got to say
Tonight I sat at my computer and I got to see your face
Many feelings flooded back, things my heart can not erase
So good to hear your voice again and to see your charming smile
If I tought my arms could hold you I'd walk a thousand miles
But my memories are all I have until I may see you again someday
And though you are a world away, in my heart you'll always stay.


This is for one of our guys over in Iraq...let's continue that God brings them back home safely.....

I have days that I long for you and find you are not there
It's like trying to catch my breath and finding I have no air
More and more every day I'm missing you it seems
I lay down to sleep at night and I see you in my dreams
I keep thinking there will come a day when I'll find someone new
But I don't think that anyone could ever compare to you
I don't know what to do ands it's tearing me apart
For when you said goodbye you took a piece of my heart
But don't tell me I can't love you, after all yo made me do it
You gave me hope for my life and the strength to go through it
Remember no matter where you go, no matter what you do
You are very special to me and I'll always remember you.


I wrote this after my ex boyfriend broke up with me. He brought a lot of good things to my life. Things I will carry forever. I am much beter now. But I wanted to put this poem on here....I will be posting more poems too, but most of them were written over the past year. I am just sharing my poetry, not necessarily my feelings today....Hope everyone enjoys it
