I've been down one time, I've been down two times............

Level 1    
                                                                     
Does he believe in God?                                            
Is he saved?                                                               
Is he a virgin?                                                             
How many women has he dated?

Level 2 
                                                                        
What does he do for a living?
Was he raised by his parents or one parent?    
Observe how he treats his Mother; because the way he treats her is the way he will treat you

How mature is he? Example: If you ask a personal question such as:What are the two importantc characteristics he likes in a woman? Does he answer it sincerely and with confidence, or does he hesitate?


Level 3
                                                                       
Do you believe in God?                                             
Are you saved?                                                          
Are you a virgin?
What do you do for a living?

Level 4

What are you willing to change to improve you?
How confident are you of your love for yourself? (Not in a conceited way, but Godly love).
                                                                                   
How mature are you? Example: If he truly does have a flat tire on his way over to pick you up, how do you respond? Will you ask him can you help (even though you know you don’t know how to change a tire); or will you get an attitude and accuse him of lying to avoid the date?
                                                                                   
Are you willing to date him for at least 6 months or more to develop a friendship first?








All of these questions for both male and female are not, at all, off limit questions. We as Americans become enamored with external affairs and forget about the whole being of a person.  We also need to be mindful, as women, of our contribution to the relationship. It is very easy to look at someone and critique them; however, are you willing to be critiqued?


“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” He also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit? A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher. Luke 6:37-40 ESV

Do You REALLY Know?

I was in JC Penney a few years ago just browsing and this woman passed me calling a little girl who was in the shoe section to come on, she was ready to leave. The little girl quickly grabbed a specific pair of shoes and walked over to her, pleading for the shoes. Well being social, I commented they were very cute shoes and would look good on her. The Grandmother proceeded with, “She has more than enough shoes at home and although they are cute, we are not buying them”. The little girl begged for a short while and realized she was not going to win this battle, so the shoes went back to the shoe department. As the little girl was leaving, her Grandmother began telling me how she provides for the child quite often and her daughter (the child's Mother) do not have a good relationship. She badly berated her daughter to the point I said in my mind, “God should I pray for this woman”; because from listening to her story, I felt the relationship could not continue is this manner, an...

Appetizer # 8

# 8 Self-Respect (n) - proper pride; dignity Oh yes, I did not do well in Business Law. To be honest, I could have cared less about court cases, what the law says about landlord rights, tenant rights, labor law rights, etc. After all, I had a home, a full time job (that at the time, I had no intention of leaving), and I was married with children. I decided to go back to college after the kids were school age, to better my life and theirs~so I thought! I was working third shift, 40 hours a week; and juggling Motherhood and being a wife. Well - all of that together did not mix well at all!  Of course I was tired. In between classes, I would go to the student lounge and sleep ~ there was also times I would doze while driving their and back home. One day while driving home, I was so sleepy, I just could not keep my eyes open. However, when I did realize I had fallen asleep,  I was heading towards the median on a four lane highway. You talk about being scared straight. I kn...

In Dark Times, RUN to Jesus!

If you view God through how and what your earthly parents instilled in you, whether it was right or wrong; no wonder so many do not come to God ~ without one plea!   Let me explain! If your Father or Mother were mean, controlling, did not keep a promise they made, promiscuous or did not show their love towards you; whereas, instead of seeking Jesus, you WILL seek the opposite of who Jesus is! Especially when we are hurt, depressed, or feeling unloved! Once again, God is not harsh, hard or sharp and slow to anger! “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.] Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is wholesome (useful, good—not harsh, hard, sharp, or pressing, but ...
