I’d like to think of my self as a modern day David- A soul torn between life and the Lover. Crying on the couch drowning in tears one day and the next dancing as a lunatic for the Creator. Doubting one second, trusting the next. Destined for greatness abounding in the Truth, lost in a mad mind.

Lord, You know the future

I place it in Your hands

All I am in Yours

I give it all up to You

My mistakes, my right doings, my love, my life.

My passions and dreams are Yours, forever Yours.

I will dance in the courts of Your Tabernacle,

My heart will sing of Your great love.

Of Your Mystery, of Your sovereignty.

Of your Loving kindness.

You Oh Lord,

You Abba- Daddy, Master Saviour, King and Friend are better than life.

Better than gold and rubies, than diamonds and fame, than fortune and dignity.

My heart delights in You my King,

My soul dances in Your great light,

My wild mind rests in You.

You along have known where I am to go, and who I am to be,

Why should I, a peasant- question You for one millisecond?

Yet I am a Queen in Your eyes- the fairest daughter, and you delight in me as I delight in You.

Yet your jealousy rages, it moves and it encompasses,

I am Yours and Yours alone,

Let it be known!

Sound the trumpets and the harps, ready the mighty chariots;

For I am of the King’s finest treasures, and He longs to thrust me into not good things, but marvelous things!

Oh how Marvelous is the King, let us come and bow before Him,

Let us joining in singing, in worshipping His name.

For He alone reigns forever more!

You alone have prepared my steps, long before I have taken them,

Long before I was a glimmer in even my Great Grandmothers eyes,

You oh Lord, have known my destiny.

So I will offer it back to You, as a living sacrifice.

Here I lay it at the altar- Soaked with the blood of Your Son.

This blood every changing, ever redeeming, ever sacrificing. 

All I am is Yours.

Use me, fill me, mold me, mend me, fashion me, form me.

I’ve decided that I need to be ready for you. I want to become a God-fearing woman, clothed with strength and dignity, with words of wisdom on my tongue. Proverbs 31 is where I’m going to start. Meet you in Songs of Solomon?

Ladies, this one is for you.
For all of you are who are single, engaged, dating, or even considering dating. I have one question for you.
What does your ideal guy look like?
1) Is he Tall?
2) Is he Funny?
3) Is he Handsome?
4) Is he Motivated?
5) Is he Athletic?
All these searchable qualities are great. But when it really comes down to it, will any of these qualities withstand the length of time? Will any of these qualities give your relationship depth or meaning? And will any of these qualities help you build a foundation that can withstand through all?
I really want you to stop and think about your life. I want you to think about your future. And I want you to think about your heart.
Now don’t get me wrong. I am not saying I have all the answers, or that I can even begin to understand the mind of a women, because I can’t. But what I do know, is that you are my sisters in Christ, uniquely beautiful in wonderful ways. And I would not be able to call myself a a true follower of Christ if I did not take the time to protect and look out for you.
I am not saying that I am”Mr. Perfect”, or haven’t made my own selfish mistakes, because I have. But what I do know is that you deserve more than what “they” say, because your life was formed by “His” hands.
1) You can’t put your trust in a man, until he can first put his trust in God. 
2) A real man opens more than the door. He opens his bible.
3) A real man will go to church with you.
When it comes down to it, you are a princess of the King, and to be treated any other way is NOT what God intended for you.
The last time I checked, you weren’t just an interest of the King, but a Princess of the King. And you deserve a prince.
Don’t settle for “him”, but keep your eyes on HIM.

"There is no room in the cross for redemptive violence. We cannot fight fire with fire or violence with violence. The Jesus revolution is different. When the soldiers came to take Jesus, Peter picked up his sword and cut off the ear of one of the servants. If ever there was a case for justified violence or just war, Peter had it. But Jesus’s response is fascinating. He picks up the ear of the wounded persecutor and heals him. Then he scolds Peter, saying ‘If you pick up the sword, then you will die by the sword.’ The early Christians said that at that moment when Jesus disarmed Peter, he disarmed every Christian. Our arms are not big enough to hold a cross and a sword."
