How often God ...Thanks for your testimony, Sparrow. How often God has mercifully delivered us from more suffering by not giving us what we want. How often has He brought judgment to those who persist in having what they want.I think we would prefer the former. Not that my friend's fiancee was a bad person; it's just that apparently the Lord wanted something else for both of them.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2894677419290387925.post-47995348474995090672008-07-22T16:53:00.000-04:002008-07-22T16:53:00.000-04:00A good post that flows with substance and deep fee...A good post that flows with substance and deep feeling. Very well done.<BR/><BR/>I can relate somewhat since I've had my heart broke in that area. But for me, I thank God for unanswered prayer. It was a relationship just before I came to Jesus. I would hate to think of the additional agonies I would have had to carry had I even attempted to walk with God and be unequally yoked.<BR/><BR/>My advice, for what its worth, is just to be there as a friend, as a Sister, to help fill the hole that she left behind until he heals and his emotional strength returns.sparrow's songhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040529798364396840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2894677419290387925.post-50938103858764207592008-07-16T18:46:00.000-04:002008-07-16T18:46:00.000-04:00I love the thought of broken pieces being made int...I love the thought of broken pieces being made into something beautiful for God, Susan.

We can be sure that God is working all things out for his good, even though it may be hard for him to see right now. I feel the same--the Lord has something better for him down the road if he does not lose heart and trusts in God to provide.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2894677419290387925.post-59699083682878143312008-07-15T02:08:00.000-04:002008-07-15T02:08:00.000-04:00My heart so feel for the young man.

God in his grace showed him otherwise. In a couple of years, God sent him a real christian lady to be his bride and he realized once again that God does work out all things to our good. Hopefully it will be the same way for your young friend. I hope he does not lose heart. God will give him something even better than he could have dreamed of. connie from texasTO BECOMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01358989235076877037noreply@blogger.com
