To my little girls....

http://youtu.be/qpSE3eZTCNo

Walking in Faith Everyday sole purpose is to catalog my life as a Christian wife, mother and women and to encourage young girls and women that being a WIFE is to the glory of God.  While I haven't blog in a couple of weeks I wanted to reach out and touch everyone today because lately I have been inundated with society's requirements for our young people today.

While my mother home schooled for over 15 years, my choice contrary to people's belief was not influence by her.  It was strictly because I wanted my little girls and boys to be children as long as I could keep them that way.  I wanted them to enjoy and experience every piece of joy they could come with living for Christ as a child. I wanted them to be pure and kept for the mate God chose for them.  While nothing but Christ can gurantee this it is my job as a parent to train them in the way of the Lord!

See as of Today, I have been a youth director, and youth advisor, a cheer coach, a cheer coordinator and now I am bless to work for YDC which is a youth work program.  Now if somebody had of told me while I was growing up I would have to deal with children I would tell them they were lying because I don't have a lot of patience.  Yet I have watch young lady after young lady treat their lives so carelessly.

Why do we no longer encourage our young ladies to become a WIFE!!!  There is shame of being a stay at home mom, shame being a virgin and shame of being a dotting wife.  So many wives and mother's saying I don't want this for my daughter.  I want her not to be defined as a mother or a wife!!  GET A DEGREE girl don't let no man take care of you!!!  I don't need a man!!! or the best statement is... I just want a baby to love of my own!!! Not a man, not that I want Jesus yet they want a child of their own!!!! OH my little girls please do not sale yourself so cheap!!!

Please see what being a WIFE represents to me!!!

WOMEN of GOD- I pray that every one reading this today promises to ensure that they know how precious they are as a Women of God.  God tell man to respect as the weaker being because of our strength.  He recognizes us as the "weaker sex" so that our hearts wouldn't be so tough that we couldn't show mercy, love and compassion.  Now this may be to a friend, this may be to a sibling, it may be towards your husband or to your child, but it is scriptural noted that we are the nurturers
 Psalms 4:3 (kjv) For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.
Mothering - A Virtuous Woman teaches her children the ways of her Father in heaven. She nurtures her children with the love of Christ, disciplines them with care and wisdom, and trains them in the way they should go. (Proverbs 31: 28, Proverbs 31: 26, Proverbs 22: 6, Deuteronomy 6, Luke 18: 16)

Infinite Wisdom- Proverbs classifies a virtuous woman as a wise woman with her body, her time, her money, her family and her home! Young Ladies (10-21) who told you that your body is not the temple of GOD!!!  Why are you so concerned with what society consider you to be?  Why is it so taboo to be a Virgin?  Young Single Women of God why are we giving away our temples so easily to man.  What has happened that we no longer consider our bodies gifts only to be given to the man God has for us??? Women of God (Married Women)  I want to curse I am so angry but why are so many women having affairs??? What happen to us only wanting to have physical relations with the man we love?  So many of us (Christian) are talking one way but living another..

Proverbs 14:1 Every wise woman builds her house: but the foolish plucks it down with her hands.
Marriage – A Virtuous Woman respects her husband. She does him good all the days of her life. She is trustworthy and a helpmeet. (Proverbs 31: 11- 12, Proverbs 31: 23, Proverbs 31: 28, 1 Peter 3, Ephesians 5, Genesis2: 18)

Faithfully waiting on Gods Plan for you- They who wait on the Lord will renew their strength!!!!  I am not judging but mom's are we still teaching our daughters to wait on God's man to find his Good thing?  Proverbs 31:10 An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels.
And if they make a mistake because everybody makes mistake are we encouraging God's forgiveness embracing our daughters in love and showing them that God never turns his back on us.  We fall down but we can always get back up?
Now Faith is the substance of things hope for and the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Ephesians 6:16 (KJV) Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
       

Enlisting Gods everlasting Love and guidance in all we do!!!!  Proverbs 3:6 In all thine ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path!  My dear little girls, I hear Jesus calling do you not know that I love you.  Do you not know that I only want the very best for you?  Don't you know that I strategically took a rib from one very special man and have him out on this earth looking for you.  I will not fool you trials and test will come.  I will use you sometimes to mold the man of God I have into the man I want him to be.  I will use you to bring into this world more pastors, preachers, doctors, lawyers and better yet more beautiful mothers like you.  Know that I have given you one of the most honored title WOMEN......why because only a women of God can give the first state of life and if you and your husband train that child in the Lord I will give him/her the second form of life eternal!!!!

To my little Girls please Walk in Faith Everyday Young Ladies knowing that you are a precious jewel's of God being molded for your BOAZ!!!

I'll be Stroking......


So after a dynamic, heartwarming, and out right awesome job by our First Lady "Michelle" Obama, God gave me this awesome thought, how many of us are stroking the wrong men for the wrong reason!  Yeah I got ya'll on this one!!! For those that are giving up the cookie with out getting the commitment I mean sex too...LOL!!!  I was even going to put Clarence Carter on for ya'll, LOL!!! My church family would fall out!!!!  Anywho...

See in the past few months my husband and I have embarked on sooooooooooooo many relationships that quite frankly started out for the wrong reason.  No love, no commitment, no desire, no substance, and especially no GOD!  It hurts me, it saddens me and it truly worries me because women are supporting a person, because he look good, he gives her all the things she wants, Gurl he drives that car, gurl he is rolling, yea he treat my kids good,but when did you ask is he SAVED!!!! Is this my Boaz?  Lord is this who you want me with!  Men you can use the same questions, but whatever your gender God should be the deciding factor!

Please note everybody take this from someone that has been in the previous position, I am so not judging I am just saying. See my words were," Eww he is fine Lord please let him see me, (he is Gay) or Well he treats me really good, maybe I should give him a chance" (he was abusive), but let me tell the HELL I caught from both of them!!!

So let me borrow some words from my Brother Rev. Taft Cleveland, man how far would our men go if they had women to stroke their men like Michelle Obama.  Well there is no truer statement but ladies what I want you to do is TOO STOP STROKING a man that is not worthy of your affection, your love, your commitment, your compliments, and your support!!!!   JUST STOP!!!

I read post after post yesterday from men saying what if we had more women support their men after Michelle's speech, but none gave the qualification of a man Worthy of that type of EGO STROKE!

So for those that are "Stroking the wrong man" physically, spiritually, mentally, morally, and verbally if your man don't meet these criteria's you need to fall on your knees and seek the only one who can help you into the Boaz He has for you.

If you heard Michelle she named several qualities of her husband that quite frankly I thought were pretty grand, but when every I want to verify something I always take it to the Lord in prayer so here we go.  Venus Mason Theus ( a very good source on marriage) please comment if I get it wrong!!!

1.  Saved
Hebrews 11:6 ESV /    
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. John 14:15 ESV /    
“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17 ESV / 8 helpful votes
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?

Ladies why don't we consult Christ first before we make our choice on our mate... by the way per the bible he should be looking for you not you for him!
Proverbs 18:22 ESV /     
He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord



2. A provider for his home

1 Timothy 5:8 ESV / 7 helpful votes
But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (My friend calls me and say gurl our house note is due and he said he had to get this new 54" TV with the surround sound, but gurl I love him though. I understand he works hard for his money)  FOR REAL!!!

3. Someone that will totally love you like Christ

Ephesians 5:25New International Version (NIV)
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (um huh) Don't be stroking no man and he can't do this for you for real ladies!!!)

4. Someone that sacrifices for you!
Genesis 2:24 NK
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

Now ladies take it from one that has six brothers and a son of her own it is hard for a man that has had a good mother and some that have had bad to leave their mothers.  I taught my son boy get out of here but the reality is mommy will always be mommy, but like I taught my son I can't do for him what his wife can do for him!! So with that being said understand when that man chooses you over his family that is a sacrifice. In the real world that choice will have to be made sometimes it is a simple move and sometimes it is complicated but how complicated depends on a lot of factors.. that is another post!

5.  The one that you have waited on God for!
Psalm 27:14 ESV /     
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!

Ladies when I literally threw up my hands and said well Lord I am going to be the first baptist nun, God was able to work with me!  Why because when I threw my hands up I gave my situation up to him!!! It was about six months later that I meet my husband for a second time this time I was single and well 23 years later, 18 years of marriage and three kids, I haven't stop stroking yet :)

Yesterday our First Lady described a man that took care of his family, a man of faith, a man that sacrifices every night to ensure his family needs are meet, that provides for his family and that per her own assessment was equally yoke with her!  That is a man that you can gladly stand behind to push him up, stand in front to shield, fall on your knees to cover in prayer and if you are MARRIED... stroke all night long!!!!

Ladies I truly love you but I pray and ask God that we as women will see, desire and want more for ourselves than what we are accepting.  Remember we are the child of a King and I haven't seen to many princess just get anything unless they don't follow the instructions of the Father!
