My dog !!

And you thought you were going to get fill in the blank !!

Ha ! Foooooled uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu :D

Why? I mean, why my definition of a wife is like my dog....

OK, let me count Thy ways, miladies and notmydudes (oh, OK, you can be my dudes, I think we established I could do that :D)

My dog and I took a walk the other day (We do about 5-6 a day by the way and play, play, play other times during day, she is 6 years old and still moves, and acts like a 2-year-old, ( psst, don't tell her that latter part, pre-erdy please :D ), .

Ok, on this walk.....

1. She looks around for things to do, always looking at me for direction, for STARTING THE PLAY!! , well, not all the time, she is purdy independent sometimes and can go off and read an e-book on her own but... :D

2. Everyone tells me how cute she is (How often do people tell you this of your wife or GF ? Whether they really are or not, people do, don't they, they just DO And, that's a good thing :) ) For the record, my girl is REALLY CUTE ! :D

3. As we are walking, often she just stops all the sudden, for no reason, usually why the sun is out, and, will NOT budge ! I have to either wait for her to roll around in the grass forever as she then after gazes into the sun or IF I am in a hurry I pick her up and cradle her in my arms and CARRY HER. But at 65 pounds, as one can tell, this gets old after awhile. I will now show her a treat before we go walking and that way she maybe remembers (sometimes she does) that the faster we walk the faster she gets her treat :D

4. She shows her attention to me, HER MASTER, only when I am the only one around during the day. If my nieces, nephews are around, she goes to them and her tail always starts going a mile a minute, back and forth, in a blur. But, for me, when I am the only one around, she NEVER flashes her tail back and forth that fast, even IF I have one of her favorite foods for her in my hand, a Greenie. (What a cool name, eh :D )

5. She, at nighttime, is wanting to be away from me most times starting out the sleep, she sleeps on my bed, at the FOOT OF MY BED as I nod off. But then when morning comes, she is parallel to me, just slightly below my face, SNUGGLING ! :D

Note: This thread is NOT to bash miladies, no, no, nooooooo . It's just to make some observations known, and, personally, I have no problems with my dog (I love my dog, she gets treats and toys OFTEN and eats GOOD dog food ) , so, I am sure I would have NO problems with you. :)

The Lord leads .

this thread is so weird.............
______(
Yes, I admit it is all of that (weird) , but, then again, so is my dog , weird, and, in a good way (weird), of course. :D :)
_____
And, yeah, the word 'Godly' should not be in the title, sorry to confuse, but my green brains do things on their own sometimes , ok, all the time, they're uncontainable :D

Just title should be: My definition of a wife is....

My dog !


_______
That would be less weird, I would hope, as my definition of a Godly wife is one who puts God first and eternal things over temporal things. But that will.have to be a different thread.....

This thread is merely my definement of a wife, through an epiphony I got from.walking my dog, lizzietheone. My thoughts. And, sorry, if upsetting, milady, it is NOT meant to be anything but POSITIVE SPEAKING of how a guy REACTS to his wife , based on her said definitions in boldface. Of course, in the guy's reacting to his wife (or girlfriend), he should be following the Lord's leading That is a given :)

Mr. Green I highly respect you but I agree with Liz, this thread is weird :) ...I wouldn't want my husband to compare me with our dog. I get your point but still...a woman is not a pet, a woman is a suitable helper for her husband

Ok, kayM, I figure that it could be taken that way now by two of my leading miladies commenting, so, sorry, I never intended to do anything more than allegory.

I wanted to subtly, or, not so subtly, depending how one understands the comparitivality (wife like my dog) of it all , explain my observations of a wife and a dog and how my dog and I find enjoyment from.each other . :)
I said 'girlfriend,' as welll as 'wife,' but, really, that is not true because, for one point I made a girl, who is married, should NEVER snuggle with a guy before MARRIAGE.

Thank you, kayM. I pray for good things for you, milady. For a follower of Christ, I can see you are well grounded in where you are in Him and you only want to step His way(s) the rest of your life.

The Lord leads. I want nothing to do with anything that hurts my ladies, makes my green brains die :(

Since you have a Godly wifely dog, does that mean you'll stop posting complaints about being single and women not really knowing what they want? lol

________sorry. :(
_________________°==°__________________
About the 'master' part in opening post.... this is not meaning that , miladies, once you are 'wives,' you are to be SLAVES to your husband. No, no, noooo, of course not, God wants the guy you're married to to treat you like a precious soul, for you are, indeed, scripture says that a husband's mistakes can be covered by his wife.

In scripture, it says that 'wives are to submit to their husbands,' ephesians 5 and collossians 3 , so, does that mean the husbands are the 'master?'

No, the verse in Ephesians before wives submit to husbands is 'submit one to another,'

Also, a husband following God is to be led by The (Holy) Spirit. Any wife will want to follow guy leading in that way, and, the guy is to lead with 'the fear of God.' The husband serving God will KNOW that the Lord blessed him with his wife.

The Lord will lead Him, right. The steps of a righteous man are ordered by God. :)

God bless you, ALL, miladies. I pray you can discern to pick the right guy, if for you a guy is in His plans. That I want for each and every one of you, like rainbowunicorn says (in my 'what guys really' thread), choosing Him to pick him rather than choosing you to pick him.

I am sorry, miladies, I can sense, The £ord leads, and, I saw a dynamic of my relationship with my dog to compare to a husband's relationship (and treatment) of his wife. I felt The Lord gave me this thread, but, The Enemy, miladies.....

can, indeed, lead too. The Devil roams the Earth, like a roaring lion, prideful, looking for someone for devour. Be strong, like Job, resist His great temptations, as you can, but ONLY with God. 1 Cor. 10:13

I talked about this topic, and, I am not right on this when two of miladies 'friends,' and, rainbowunicorn is a friend, too, from playing in games I've concocted on c.c I know her.. But, yes, they all say it''s 'weird,' and, it is correct, kayM, exactly what you said, a wife is a 'suitable helper.'
I know my dog has helped me in life, but, to say, a wife is help like a dog is just not a right dynamic I can see now, and, I have plenty of fight in me to dynamically make it work, and, fought, but this would not work to my ability to change the dynamic to a positive. This is a war I deserve to lose, and I ask for the ladies for forgiveness that were hurt...

I am sorry, miladies, and, sorry, to guys, too, it was unright, I see your christian hearts', guys, NOT one of you said one remark disparaging in a post. May others see this in you, c.c. Christ bros :)

I never want to hurt my ladies. Ever.

God says, in more than just Hebrews 13:5, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you.'

In the original Greek translations, it has been said to me that the word, 'never' is actually a five-negative english translation....

'I will not ever, no, not ever leave you or forsake you. '

Then, also, though you may have felt weakened by what I said from my post, and, I also commend all miladies as NOT one shot back a thread that was dogging guys, you turned the other cheek, may God bless you greatly for that , and, I know, in His timing, He will :)

But, and, sorry, I lost my thought there, but I will leave you with two meanings of what original Greek conveys in meaning of the word, 'forsake.'

2 meanings:
1. Not relaxing my watchfulness for you..
2. Not leaving you in a helpless state

God is, when man hurts you, God is, when life turns, God is, when friends disrespect you, God is, when things become weird, God is...Christ Sis', yes, for all of forever, with you, God is... :)

The Lord does lead Mr. Green :) I wouldn't hold back from sharing :)

I can see some qualities one may find in their dog that I would want to find in my future husband and I'd hope to be for my husband.

A dog is often referred to as a man's best friend- I pray that my spouse will be with my best friend.

A dog is loyal and obedient to his owner- I want to be loyal and obedient to the Lord our God as well as being loyal and obedient to my husband. The Lord teaches a wife to be obedient to a Godly husband. (God first, always but we are to take heed to our husbands direction)

A dog is a protector of it's family and is aware of what is taking place before it's obvious to others (storms and such)- I desire that in a husband and I hope to hope to be aware of things that may be going wrong with the help of God.

You can hurt your dog or forget about him or her or even not give it enough attention, but it is always loving- I hope to find someone who is just as forgiving :) Just as I hope I can be for my husband.

I think that we all got what Green`s point was.
But it is not good to compare women with animals, we were created to help men, to submit, to companion and love them, and the first woman was actually created from his own bones and flesh, because from all the animals in earth God didnt find a perfect helper for Adam.
So i think that a woman should be valued no more but no less either for what she was created and as we must give dignity and honor to men i think we deserve the same thing.

But I know that Green didnt mean to hurt anyone and we all know how he loves his dog and that makes him a nice man that care about animals. :)

Yes, SmileOn, the Lord leads, you voiced good traits of a dog, protector, man's best friend and wanting to marry your best friend. You will, Lord leading, be a tremendous inspiration to God's guy for you, wait.... :)
This all goes for kayM, lizzytheone, too, you both will be too , I appreciate you both and I know your posts embark much wisdom to all on here. :) rainbowunicorn, you, too :)
Missfire, amen, too. :)

My intent, I always hopeband pray, on c.c., and, everywhere I go, with everything I say, is led from Him, Him in me, but, like I said earlier, Satan TRIES to lead too, and, that snake will continue to lead until God drowns him one day (thrown into lake of fire). He obviously led me a little in this thread, miladies told me so, and, so did, He, tell me I got off (narrow) path :)
And, praise God, praise God, that day is coming of going DOWn forever and evermore for that red, horned, killer of so many souls; don't ever, never, no, not, ever never let THAT SNAKE kill your soul, miladies, and, notmydudes. The battles in life we fight is not us against us, it is us against Satan and his demons (Ephesians 6:12), the principalities of evil, they war for control ('please take and eat this Fruit') vs. God's goodness (please, take and hold this Cup) for the prized eternity of our lives, oh, so prized, Christ bros and sis. Priceless :)

May Jesus bless you all, from on High, precious Christ peeps, with His great Love always, thank you all for being my friends , peace and blessings, grace and mercy, will come to you all that forever follow Him :)

Yes, I was de-stressed of burden the very moment I surrendered it all to Him :) Blessings, milady, it's all good if we follow Him through mistakes we make, for He will be there to walk us through them, forgiving us with His mercy like no one else can do. Literally, like no one else can do, God rights our wrongs the moment we bring them to Him .

Mr. Green it wasn't my intention that you felt guilty... I really do get your point, and I think we all do, my opinion is just that your analogy lacked some other characteristics that can't be found in an animal. I know your intentions are good, as I said I really respect you and your opinions. You do have very good points there! let's say I just didn't agree with the comparison or the way the comparison was made. That was just my opinion of course, my intention is not to offend anyone.
I hope I didn't sound too critical there, God bless you Mr. Green :).

I know, kayM, what you were saying, and, I just had the Lord get on me at a different understanding of 'weird,' and, the part about 'suitable helper' was, help too . The Lord leads, I want everything I say and do (even teasing to y'all on c.c.) led from Him, His Spirit is in us all that want Him in our temple. I pray you (all with Jesus) have affirmed your faith and through that act (read Acts 1 and 8 ) Him 'in.' :)

Oh, you don't say. Or, I mean, yes, vkat, you do say, no? Yes? No? Vkat. You think, I like him, yes, I like him. WAIT! What am I saying? I do not like him, he's not my type :D

On a serious note, vkat, I saw an interview by Piers Morgan (CNN) of Carson Daly, 'Last Call With Carson Daly,' and, in it the late night talk show host said he was a Christian. Daly is host of The Voice, too, that is cool. God works in this unmysterious way.
