Dear Heavenly Father , Great God Almighty . Thank You Dear Heavenly Father , for life , thank you for allowing me to continue to live it . Thank You for the home that You have so generously provided for me and Stephen and C.J. and for all the comforts and pleasures that we are able to enjoy because of Your great generosity towards us . Thank You for providing for all of our daily needs in abundance .
Great God Almighty I ask You to please help me to be strong and sane and rational . You know my weaknesses , better than I do . I don't ever want to be hard hearted Dear Heavenly Father but sometimes , when I am aware of things that upset me , I become very over emotional and almost irrational . Please Great God Almighty , continue to give me the strength to continue to live in these awful kingdoms of men , these kingdoms of pain and suffering and cruelty and cold heartedness , without me becoming overwhelmed by what I see and hear . May I be strong enough to cope with the horrible things that I am aware of but never cold hearted and unfeeling .
I pray that Your Kingdom will ever so soon fill this , Your earth Great God Almighty and I long for the days when the lion shall lie down next to the lamb and they shall both eat straw together. Thank You so very much for not leaving me alone in these kingdoms of death , without any knowledge of You , my God my Creator my Sustainer , my Peace my Strength my Comfort and my Sanity , and without any hope . Thank You for cheering me up , beyond measure , by allowing me a measure of understanding of the things that pertain to You Dear Heavenly Father and to Your Precious Only Begotten Son , Jesus Christ the Righteous . Please send him back to us ever so soon , when it is Your Will Great God Almighty . May Your Righteous Will be done , always and forever , through the name of Jesus Christ , my Sinless High Priest in Your heavenly places . Amen .

Isaiah 11 verse 6 ~ The wolf will live with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the goat; the calf and young lion and fatling will be together, and a little child will lead them.

That is such a good prayer. Thank you for that. The challenges of this world are difficult and many. I've recently had a challenge of not realizing that I wasn't sharing enough of my past with someone I care deeply for. She asked personal questions and when the time was right I told this person everything about my past dating life before and after I was born again. And before coming to Christ, it wasn't good. It hurt her, but we got past it. What I didn't share with her, was something that happened after salvation just a couple of years ago actually. Mind you, I haven't dated in 8 years. And before that it had been over 10 years. So dating as a new creation does seem very foreign to me. And still now.

I met a lady that wasn't a Christian online a couple of years ago. I tried sharing the gospel, and she would listen but would not believe. So through these continued attempts we spoke more. Well at that time my mother was suffering through stage 4 cancer and needed more help like cooking. I asked for a couple of authentic recipes from here country. We developed a friendship that was turning friendlier, but not loving. As we made a few comments towards each other that were starting to go in the direction of "more than friends", I thought to ask if she was married. Not to mention she's not Christian so I'm already not thinking this will turn into much.
It turns out she was married. I wasn't expecting that answer, and I even kept talking to her for a few days afterwards. But the conviction was too strong and I ended the flirting immediately. I still tried to speak to her about Jesus, but she was clear that she was not interested. So I cut off all communication at that moment.

I didn't consider this a loving relationship or even dating because it was in some what of a grey area for so short a period of time before she told me she was married, so I didn't bring it up to the person that asked about my previous dating life. She now doesn't want to see me because she thinks I tried to hide it from her. I didn't even realize she stayed up all night being very sad and heart broken until she told me a day later. It really didn't even cross my mind to tell her because I didn't think anything of it. Was I wrong for this? I'll take the advice for my next attempt at dating. Because I'm truly not understanding if I was actually in the wrong here.

I apologize Suze. Don't mean to hijack your thread. Please forgive me

I don't think u did anything wrong at all . U never even met this lady on line ! So there was no physical intimacy , it was an on line friendship that's all . Also , were u supposed to tell your most recent friend about every single woman u have ever spoken to ? That would b a bit ridiculous if u ask me ! I honestly think that your most recent friend is being a bit oversensitive , perhaps she has difficulty trusting men ? I have to b really honest , if I really liked a man ( and if I was single , which I'm not ) I would not b as easily put off as she was . Does she expect everyone to always b perfect ? Does she not know how to forgive ( not that I think that u gave her anything that needs to b forgiven ) when someone makes an honest mistake ?
I honestly think that u have had a fortunate escape , she did not value u very highly if she can so easily discard u .
If u r still serious about her u could try apologising and c how that goes down with her but beware , she has shown u that she expects u to never dissapoint her and , that if u do , she's not inclined to b a forgiving person . I do hope that u won't allow this experience to put u off from searching for your special someone . God sees u and He knows what and who , is right for u , b patient and trust in Him . Best wishes in Christ ❤️

I appreciate the advice, Suze. And I don't want this to sound one-sided against her. Like you said, I'm not perfect either. She thinks more went on between me and this other woman, but nothing else happened. I won't go into any details about her past, that's her testimony to share. There's pain from her past there for sure and she's admitted this is a difficult thing for her to deal with. I just know that she wants to get better just like I want to get better. I was hoping we could do that together.

I just ask that whoever reads this will pray for her to continue getting more into the right state of mind for whoever the Lord is preparing for her. I know that's what she really wants. I pray that for her as well

Thank you
