I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 29 Apr, 2010 12:41 PMI have read that some females here are seeking their Boaz but unfortunately do not expect to be a Ruth . How many Godly expectations as opposed to just demands or worldly expectations are the basis for their decision to accept or reject a man after God`s own heart who is seeking that pearl of great price ? |

I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 13 Sep, 2010 10:26 AMThis has been an enduring post. I mean over many months and isnt it great to see iron sharpening iron? I learned something from a man of God years ago and he said , " that just because someone didnt do or think like you , it doesnt make them wrong . It makes them different . " In fact this is almost always true . Of course if you dont believe in murder and someone else does well , it does make them wrong but we arent talking of outright sin here we are expressing our outlook on various facets of a book which God Himself gave us to grow with and to glorify Him in that growth and it has prompted some to go to the Word to study and to meditate and to receive . This is a good thing . I want to thank all who have and still will participate in this post and I would like to hear JP`s Testimony . I pray much love and mercy to all . |

I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 27 Jan, 2012 12:35 PMHere�s the thing � commitment! More people in our society are co-habitating today than ever before even though statistics prove that cohabitating results in higher divorce rates. Or they go wrong because they enter into what God intended to be a lifetime commitment with the thought that �if it doesn�t work out we can always get a divorce�. We also don�t recognize that love is a decision � not necessarily a feeling. Feelings are critically important, but infatuation is oftentimes mistaken for true love & commitment. People get entangled in a physical relationship only to realize it didn�t have the depth of true caring (love) so they�ve sold their bodies for a �mess of pottage� & they�re still emotionally hungry. God loved us even when we were yet sinners. Do we love our mates even when they wake up without make-up, they forgot to take out the trash, they test our patience? Now we�re right back to commitment. If we get upset over such incidentals then when true hardship comes along, a death in the family, an alcohol problem, illness, etc., do we keep our word & work out the issues or run like a jackalope? Commitment!!! |

I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 3 Feb, 2012 05:09 AMWe went wrong when we failed to realized that Yeshua (Jesus) is our husband (and wife). When our desire for a "mate" does not supercede our desire for Him. Don't get me wrong, having a mate is "a good thing" according to His word, but it is NOT everything. He is. So when the fleshly desire is mute and you are resting in Him for everything, standing on His promises. . .then . . .I believe you are on to something. |

I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 15 Mar, 2013 09:06 AMElla, I just came out of a marriage like that! WOW! Don't assume someone is like you knew them in college, and get engaged and married in a month. He had become a mooch! Paid 20 grand on his teeth in one year, not to see any of it returned. The divorce judge seemed to think this was not something I could ask to be repaid. Oh well. Will learn from this mistake and not repeat it! |

I wanna Boaz ?Posted : 23 May, 2014 07:38 PMCurious to me is that you ask, where are we going wrong?, and yet admit to walking by sight (literally, in this case), rather than by Spirit. . . . God says in Proverbs it is good if a man find a wife, and also in Genesis, that it is not good for the man to be alone. The model for finding romance is in the story of Abraham sending Eleazar to take a wife for Isaac, as well as in the Garden of Eden, as well as in Ruth. In every case, God brings the woman to the man. Man does not go out seeking his bride. In 1 Corinthians 7 Paul advises against seeking a spouse, albeit for perhaps a different reason, but still, his advice concurs with the other biblical accounts. A man judges by the outward appearance, but God by the heart. It is frivolous to come to a site like this, or to any other venue, in order to find a wife. Wives should be found spontaneously in the course of an ordinary day, because God should be allowed to lead the potential wife to the man. |
