Is it possible...

God gave us a heart for a reason. I am not critcizing simply stating simple facts. I believe He loves us all good or bad, married, divorced or unmarried. God gave us free will too, and the power to forgive. I had a friend tell me once and I looked this up in scripture I wish I had it right now, but basically in a nutshell a woman lives under her husbands umbrella of faith. The only thing a husband may not do is refuse her right to worship God. Maybe my thinking is simplistic in nature, I am just telling you pray and go with your heart. Perhaps you will meet a divorced lady, is there not a more powerful thing to do together than worship and pray? Perhaps that's your call, who knows I for one try not to question the things God puts before me. All I am saying is don't give up, don't judge (Jesus has that covered) and if it's the right person God will set you straight. Everyone makes mistakes and thank God for forgiveness cause I am sure there are others out there who don't want to be judged by man because of a bad relationship etc. God speed my friend I speak from my heart...

Hi Sport123

In reply to your original questions. I believe that what you are seeing around about you, are the signs spoken of in 2 Tim 3.1-8 - Don't get it confused with where you are in God or how it affects you.

Broken relationships are classic examples of where a person is/isn't in their walk with God. If a couple divorce and either one of them renews their relationship with God, the relationship is, in most instances, reconciled - except death. The Church that I grew up in spent alot of time in counsel on marital responsibilities. In todays church, there appears to be very little taught on it. 2 Corinthians 6:14, tells us not to be yoked together with unbelievers. This means that we are to share company with someone who shares the same values.

I consider myself a plain looking female, but I have had many admirers throughout my life.

I believe that the Lord is to blame for it because of the peace, purity and goodness he instilled. An inner beauty that shines out through every pore, our eyes and our speech.

GOD IS LOVE

Always remember and never forget that, "all have sinned and fell short of the glory of God."

The Lord is the God of 2nd chances. I should know. His grace and mercy cover all, and love covers over a multitude of sin. The Lord told Hosea to take an adulteress wife and when she left him, He told Hosea to go and bring her back home. This is a picture of forgiveness and it points to the point of the cross. No one is perfect but the One who is perfecting us. .......jmh137

A few thoughts to consider,

Whom did Jesus come for? Don't forget, If you have looked upon a woman in a manner not becoming, you are just as guilty as the most retched adulteress. I understand your plight, but the answer lies in where we are now, not where we have been. As far as where we have ALL been, let the one who is guiltless cast the first stone. He/she that is forgiven much, loves much.
