    Contentment in singlehood

    The covenant of marriage is so inherent to all persons created in the image of God, that even those who insolently reject the things of God, can't abolish or fend off the irrevocable framework for the unification of His creation. We need look no further than the Antediluvian world for an...

    Hello from Ohio

    Welcome, rewriter. I spent time in your state during my only visit to the USA. I have fond memories of the City of Rocky River, Ohio (y)

    Contentment in singlehood

    Marriage remains the consummate purpose for you. More so than ever, when the Father has come to the fatherless. In the fullness of time, the pain of spousal abandonment can be supplanted by the hope that comes with the expectation of being all dressed in white at the marriage supper of the...

    What's the story about dating?

    I'm putting that acronym on record as the mother of all red flags. If a woman ever requests my ASL, I'll be safe in the knowledge that she's been doing this for a very long time and make a quick exit! 😆

    Contentment in singlehood

    It's rather annoying when discontented singles try to put at peace singles in the picture. You can tell when someone's insight is impaired because they'll unconsciously project their own attitude onto others who are in a comparable situation. They aren't content, so nobody else could possibly...

    Where do you fall in the poll? Never married, or Single for decades?

    They may not have been meant long for this world, but I'm sure they lived the full number of their years with you. God bless you.

    Extreme Loneliness...

    Michael, renewal of the mind occurs at the precipice of life. I was a creature of habit, who had to be taken to my breaking point, because I was too hardened in my ways to respond to anything that wasn't less severe in action. When I'd had a belly full of living for myself, that's where things...

    What do you bring to the table?

    If anyone asked me what I brought to the table, I'd be considerate enough to let them watch me in action at someone else's table. Happy landing.

    Anxiety and Depression are Real.

    If you've been where they are, and want them to be where you say you now are, the despondent are fertile ground. The better hope isn't only to be illustrated, it needs to be demonstrated. Which necessitates supporting the weak. Consoling and encouraging the faint-hearted and feebleminded; being...

    Anxiety and Depression are Real.

    That much is true. It might only take a moment, but the timescale to reach that point can take an age. God is long-suffering in view of our waywardness. We have a High Priest who is touched by our weaknesses (sumpatheó: sympathise, have compassion, to suffer with) Hebrews 4:15 When the Lord...

    Anxiety and Depression are Real.

    We must have intimate awareness of the Comforter to be that resolute in times of distress. We aren't all where we need to be yet. If you have really arrived at the mastery of righteousness by faith, you should be comforting someone who needs comfort with the same comfort God has given you.

    Thank you 😊 And please be sure to pull me to one side if I ever start small talking in verse. 🤭

    Anxiety and Depression are Real.

    Michael, the one thing we all understand is that our mistakes are costly and the lessons don't come cheap. We were bought with a prodigious price to settle the debt of our blameworthiness. When we are anxious and distressed, our feelings and shifting emotions can pull us from pillar to post...

    Ain't Nobody Gonna Tell Me Nothin'! How Many Times Do You Have to Touch a Hot Stove Before You Finally Learn?

    Allowing sentimentalism to rule against discernment is like a hot oven which leaves me feeling half-baked. A somewhat recent point in case would be a woman I crossed paths with. I was tasked with making good the property she was renting and we got talking. She was not of our faith, but a draped...

    Let's Have a Very Controversial Conversation About Favorite Childhood/Past Games!

    Tetris! An addictive game of puzzle mechanics which drilled me to strategically pack things like groceries. From the shopping trolley/cart, to my refrigerator and kitchen cupboards/cabinets. No wasted storage space. Anyone who likes to put everything in its place will understand. :)

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    I thumped my head off the same garage door twice today. I thought the pain was the end of the matter, but now I find out the fires of hell are being stoked for klutzes like me. I can only apologise to my guardian angel for my lack of coordination and grace in movement, because he's about to...

    I am single and searching, I am single but not searching, I am single till the day I find. Which one are you?

    Nice pretext. I reckon you vanished into Finnair because you boarded a flight to Helsinki to fetch Tazzo's bucket stockpile.

    I am single and searching, I am single but not searching, I am single till the day I find. Which one are you?

    For my part, searching high and low for a marriage partner would be like anticipating the public disclosure of those clandestine aliens who've allegedly been visiting us for millennia. Anyone who's ever watched Star Trek, will know it's the Prime Directive innit? You can't just go round...

    So You Have a Nice, Fresh Piece of Bubble Wrap... WHAT DO YOU DO??!!

    The kid in me wouldn't say no to being parcelled up in bubble wrap and rolled down a wide staircase. :D If I had an entrepreneurial streak, I would cash in on the civilised world's fixation with health and safety and sell it to the people who want to bubble wrap every threat, perceived and...
