A beautiful week to you all and most of all the end of the 7th month of the year. we are so thankful to God for his keeping grace upon us, our families, friends, loved ones and everyone. if it were not for the mercy of God where would we have been?
we started talking about gender worth last week, we will wrap it up quickly here...this is to the ladies(single and preparing). a popular belief by some people of little or no worth is "virginity is lack of opportunity" i have heard this a lot of times and some of you can bear witness to this. the right version of that is "virginity is dignity"
it is natural that we get attracted to the other gender and this attraction is in various ways and forms, it varies in individuals. don't get carried away, some say i'm only admiring him. Yes that is the beginning, how you handle your emotions here is what qualifies your worthiness.
it has been termed that ladies are gullible, i don't blame them because its true to a large percentage especially in our emotional life. this part of our life must be guarded with all jealousy. some ladies have lost it and it cannot be regained....mind you it can be gained spiritually but how about the physical...the scar cannot be erased.
as a lady in waiting and not for long, preserve yourself, don't get deceived or even carried away. yes he is going to marry you but what he is asking for now is his tomorrow which he wanna taste of today. don't be a recipe in the hand of so-called fiance or boyfriends. if a relationship has not been sealed legally, it shouldn't be sealed spirit, soul and body. a relationship where your body is involved is dishonoring and it shows that such a lady or a girl has no worth left.
one of my pastors whose messages has really been of great value to my life said and i paraphrase "any man that lays with you before you are legally joined as husband and wife will never trust you and will turn you to a punching bag once you are married" yes i concur, "if you can sleep with me before we are married, how do you defend you aren't sleeping with any other man even now that we are married". we are always at the receiving end. sometimes they ask for it to see if you would compromise. i'm sure you have heard of people who don't married to their fiancee just because they agreed to lay with him before the assigned day.
remember the scripture says "marriage is honourable and the bed undefiled". a presentation was sent to me by a colleague, it had to do with a woman's worth, oh how true but it can be gone in some minutes of pleasure.
do you know how much worth you have in the eyes of your husband when he meets you kept? take a survey, ask men who married kept wives, they will tell you how worthy their wives are. funny enough, there was this day in my office when they were discussing about age and sex, some said sex is medically approved for people of a certain age. "oh what nonsense, people trying to justify why SIN must be committed"
the men get away with a lot of things, its difficult to know a defiled man, but it is so easy to discover a defiled woman. this has led to so many problems in homes (christian homes inclusive). dear friends, keep yourself and preserve your worth...you would smile at the end of waiting.
to those who are "oh i have lost it, do i have any worth left?" you can still have this worth we talking about, realize and repent, get back on your feet, stand tall with your head high up and ask for God's leading and direction. for those who still have it, dont be so confident of yourself and think you are perfect, remember "let him that thinks he stands take heed lest he falls" God will keep everyone of us that we would not only be worthy on earth, but he would count us worthy to enter his kingdom at last. AMEN!!!
i love you all and feel free to post your comments and word of encouragement. see you soon
God bless you.
