I learned it's not about what I'm not getting
but what can I give you...

I learned it's about me, even if it's pertaining to you, it's my personal issue regarding you, so ultimately it's still about me..

I learned unless he loves God, unconditionally, I can never expect the same...

I learned when I tell you I love you that's my truth, and it's okay if it's not yours, my love is not contingent on your love for me, as our Lord and Savior loves us...

I learned faith is patience, and patience is trust...and everytime I go to someone else, and not God first...I'm excercising doubt...

I learned it's okay to need space, it doesn't mean rejection, it means taking time to put yourself back together, and in that particular moment you're the only one who can...

I learned the most intimate time can be spent in silence, taking a long glance at the one you love, without ever having to speak...just appreciating the fact that they have agreed to spend the rest of their life with you...and that's enough...

I learned if God's not a part of it, it just won't work...

Hi Lisa, it is ok to love
yourself you deserve it.
The part I like is if they don't want God it won't work this is so true, time is too precious to lose. keep
writing for him.

"I learned if God's not a part of it, it just won't work..."
Wow... I'm just amazed at how much we really do have in common! I invite you to read 'By the Vinedresser's Design.' Our comments are almost word-for-word the same! God certainly is timely!

Lisa, there are some quite inspired statements in this, with much wisdom. The one that hit me most was, "unless he loves God, unconditionally, I cannever expect the same." One of many amazing truths.

I did notice a couple of typos (a spot or two where "s" has been left off) and one sentence in particular had a few glitches, "I learned it's okay need space, it does mean rejection, it means putting yourself back together" Should that be "okay to need" and "it doesn't mean"? But other that that, I thought the content was thought provoking and excellent. With love, Deb
