yes, it was received after following His guidance to intervene for a stranger, a series of events where I followed His guidance led up to it, he showed how He knows the end from the beginning and situations where I followed His guidance years and decades ago were for this time and for times in the future, He weaves a wonderful tapestry for our lives when we are His.

Oh that is awesome and I am glad you were able to help a stranger. I couldn't agree more about this...

He weaves a wonderful tapestry for our lives when we are His.

R u here? Do you have insight on Isaiah 4:1, the seven women?

Isaiah 4-1, will look.
wasn't aware of this verse-

King James Bible
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.
Of all the translations
"take away our reproach" is consistent, is the "reproach" from being unmarried?

Romans 8-1

King James 2000 Bible
There is therefore now no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

The Isaiah verse was old testament, the Spirit of the Lord came to a few, now He abides in all of us who will allow.
CharliRenee & others-can you further illuminate your thoughts on this?

Morning guys, hope you are well. No you kept it going Shittim, haha thank you.

I think that I was just trying to understand if that verse was symbolic, the seven woman in your interpretations. And yes, thanks Shittim for recalling Romans 8:1.

Hello Shittim, good to see you as well. You may have not answered that specific question but you did bring comfort in remembering it is ok, that ok that I don't understand just yet or ever...I am not condemned, thanks to Him.

CharliRenee. are you single? Is that what you mean by not "being condemned"? I guess I don't understand the direction of the conversation, and I can be contacted through pm if you desire, I am single, I believe Ruby, least among many, is but in reality since Christ indwells us we are never alone.
