to dance the dance....

well just so you don't think im still some kind of fruit case since the last post don't worry i am fine now , forgiveness is a pretty amazing thing. oh and i promised some stuff on relationships so here it goes we live in a culture right now where the body (church) doesn't teach or really have much to help people wanting to pursue a relationship and to want to purse a Godly relationship is a very counter culture thing and even different then what most professing Christians practice. but there is plenty of sources to find information and good biblical teaching on this matter and knowledge is very key. the bible does not teach us to live and then learn as the world or recreational dating promotes but to learn and then live , to use this time , this season of being single to learn to grow in our walk and become a Godly man/ woman so if God does will for you to be married you will be ready to "dance the dance and not get hurt" and "to be the one that your future wife/ husband needs you to be" so for recommendations for learning , Paul washers sermons on dating, Joshua Harris books on dating ( read i kissed dating good bye first) and mars hill church also did a good sermon on Christian dating and passion and purity(although ive never read it but heard it's good). but thats just a few to get you started .also when reading and studying remember to make it personal and not to become leaglist or judgmental about it and understand that pretty much every relationship is different and unique but as Joshua so wisely pointed out in his illusion about it, it's like a bunch of art students trying to copy there art masters masterpiece but there teacher has given them all different tools and materials to use based on what is best for them but they are all trying to copy the same thing. so thats all for now but remember to not act upon or follow your heart because it is very deceitful and wicked and don't make the person of affection an idol in your life but wait on the Lord be devoted to prayer and God will give you direction
