It's hard, isn't it.

We know we want to be like Christ, right, but....


....there are a lot of distractions, aren't there?

What does this mean to the single person?

How can we just be ourselves so that the RIGHT person just right for us comes red robbin a-bobbin along?

Ah-HA , green! So, THAT is why we should be ourself, there IS something decidely important in it's word for the single person to be or not to be married at SOME POINT in his/her life!

The Lord leads, but, yep, that IS exactly what's been said :)

And, YOUR answer should be easy, can be, anyway. Just be yourself :)

For someone not having accepted Him, it is going to be different just being yourself than someone walking with Him :)

Not easy being green, flightfancy? oh no, not at all....

The Lord leads ;)

But, I digress, are the 5 points you listed, or, 10, 20...REALLY things of you just being yourself.

Not asking you to confess, just saying , how well do.we know ourself. MAYBE, since we have someone who.knows us better than we know purself, He is who we should let teach us about ourself. :) The Lord leads.

That way, we are being revealed all truth (hey, green, doesn't Scripture say that somewhere?) :)

Although I've gotten more used to being myself overall, there is still one area in life where it's very difficult. I'm guessing you probably already know, but here it is. Being myself is one of the hardest things for me to do when I'm around girls. It's occurred to me, though, that the only time I've had girls like me is when I was just myself around them. In other words, I wasn't trying to impress them or win them over. I was just being casual. Of course, this is extremely difficult for me if I am attracted to the girl I'm talking to, but I know for the sake of getting a girlfriend and eventually a wife, I need to learn to be more at ease around girls.

I'm going to say something about this, for you, gamelydrumming, and, me, too, and, my buddy dothackinfiinity , :) and anyone else who happens to be listening. Shhh, keep it quiet, let's keep this between just you and me, and, DC Talk ;)

But, I think, God does things to us, when things don't work out, when we meet a GIRL that just flips us head over our heels, like Rudolph, when he met Clarice, that bumbling reindeer didn't know what to say and he was TOTALLY at a standstill until.....

....the girl moved in and SAID SOMETHING him.

Now, THAT above is a perfect situation of it just working out between you and he, or, her. :)

_____________-
But, IF that is not the fairytale, Rudolphian way for you , YOU will know it ! How? By jove, you will know !!!

What? Huh?

Oh, by God. Sorry, now, how in the world did I ever come up with 'jove,' :D

But, yeah, IF you fumble and stumble and grrrrrumble out your words in half-eaten syllables, so to speak, then THAT is something God is doing. Now, WHAT you need to do as you are speaking to a girl is PRAY to God for how to just......


....be yourself.

Good, now we are getting somewhere. :)

Good post, gamelydrumming :)
