In reply to Jem. Thanks for your feedback, Jem! We need more women like you to stand up for the truth of God’s Word.

With all due respect and all the love in my heart, I would have put ‘Aunty Betty’ in her place. Too many times, we see scenarios in the world and in the church where people think their situation/circumstance or choices make it permissible or acceptable for others to follow suit. Like it’s some sort of model example. We need to realize God sets the standard, and not us. As you rightfully said Kimberly, sadly we sometimes take God’s grace for permission to disobey Him. I don’t want to do that to God. I’ve been in a place where I liked a good young man, but he wasn’t a Kingdom man. There is a difference. Also, I know some women who married unbelievers and tragically, their marriages are non-existent or in a hot mess today! It is unfortunate but I have learnt from them. They taught me what not to do. The thing is, even if he “turned out fine” like Aunty Betty said, it’s disobedience and you really miss out on who God has in store for you! No need to take on ‘Aunt Betty’s compromise and settle. At the end of the day, we have to answer to our Heavenly Father. Be encouraged ladies. Let’s keep on that path that is holy and acceptable unto God 🙂

A lot of times we do take God’s grace for permission to disobey him and don’t even realize it. That’s a big thing! We need to be walking his way as you said for protection and for his provision. A godly man pulls you to, and pushes you towards God.
