God and Relationships

I am currently suppose to be typing up an outline for my English Class, but I cannot concentrate. There are times when I ponder about my life and I am sure that we all do that. However, I am feeling at despair sometimes because I do not know what God has planned for me...of course none of us really know yet. I do not know if God ever wants met to be in a relationship and get married. You know it just does not seem like that is ever going to be a possibility. I know, if there are readers, you are thinking that you are too young to be thinking about this. Well, I do not think so, I am 21 and have not had a relationship in a very long time. Another argument is that times have changed and you got plenty of time to find someone, that is not true either, especially if you plan on having children.

Anyways, we hear from many different perspectives is that some people God wants them to be single, so that they can serve God completely. Another point of view is that some people just are not going to end up married, not everyone gets married. Then there is just people that were meant to have relationships. I WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE TO BE MARRIED!!! I see people getting engaged and getting married all the time...I think that they are so lucky and at the same time is that I am sad. I am sad because I do not think it will happen to me. I would trade my intelligence just to be married and have a family.

Maybe some people right now think I am a nutcase for suggesting the possibility of giving up intelligence. I love seeing couples that do not have much, but they still love each other. Love in a relationship is amazing to see. Someday, I hope that I can have a husband and be able to tell him that I love him.

I really hope that the Lord has it in his plans for me to get married, I really do. I know that ya'll think I am sap, well I can be at times. If you know me, you know that I have an outward appearance that is displayed as not a sap haha.

Today society requires women do the first move thing. However, I do not think that it is suppose to be that way. I believe that God intended men to be the men. I believe that God intended the men to be the go-getters. I love the fact that I am not equal to man because I am proud to be a woman. Women are to submit to their husbands, and men are to love their wives as God loves the church. The Lord is amazing!!

By the way, this may seem like a desperate plea for a guy to come my way. However, I am not doing that because I know that the time will come eventually for a man to come around, if the Lord has it in His plans. This is just me expressing my feelings that I rightfully can express. If you have a problem, get over it, there is nothing wrong with freedom of expression.

Thinking About Possibilites

I am often wondering about love. I have not had a boyfriend for several years and I have only attempted to go out with two guys. I sometimes think that there is something wrong with me. However in Rob Bell's Sex God book he tells his readers that there is nothing wrong with us, we should just be happy with what the Lord gave us. Easier said then done. I live in America, where the ideal woman is thin and perfect in looks. I am neither of those, maybe in my own special way I am pretty. I am generally a very nice person, but nice gets you no where in America sometimes. I just wish that Americans were not so strung up on the looks, that is partially why as a nation we are becoming slowly immoral and/or moral relativism.

We are too focus on the superficial that we are losing the morals of our society. No one bothers to look through the surface to the person hidden beneath. For instance, some people completely ignore people that do not look at them, they sometimes that they are human too. People willy nilly go and have abortions like crazy, but they do not see that there is a baby in there that can feel the pain that is being inflicted on them. The nervous system is the first system to develop. Another problem that we have morally is that we forget usually criminals have feelings too and they sometimes need someone to talk to them about the problems. However, they need someone that is real that has gone through the same problems of them, has gotten out of those situations.

I just think that there is a problem with morals in are nation that has begun with looking at the superficial. Men and women care too much about the looks. However, you know what is so funny, the couple of boyfriends that I actually had, is that I actually liked them for their personality first and in the long-run I became more physically attracted to them. Maybe if we look deeper into the person, then we will develop morally.

We have to remember that God created us in His image. We are all humans, we have to remember that we have feelings and problems just like each other.
