Worthy, Valued, Blessed & Highly Favored

I once thought that my worth and value came from having a husband, having a business, having money, having a nice car, a nice house by the beach, a big family, friends, a degree, etc. I NOW know that none of that is worthy, none of that gives ME Value. None of that can truly satisfy the love you crave deep down in your soul, none of that can compare to what and for WHOM you were created for. I know because I tried, I tried it all. Sex, drugs, rock and roll, money, partying, working hard, two jobs, having my own business, nice dinners, no job, nice house, nice car, and none of it has truly satisfied me or that deep loving fulfilling desire my soul craves how only God can satisfy me and you. Have you ever felt you were created for more? Through God My eyes have been opened and I am now able to see the truth of what true love is and should be not only that but I've been blessed to experience what Christ's love, respect and honor is in a relationship. It was hard, I am not going to lie, we did not kiss or lay together, we did not do much other then hug from time to time and do a lot of talking? Why? Because #1 we chose to honor God with our bodies and mind, meaning we would not cause each other to stumble or fall into temptation. The enemy is clever and we have to be careful because he is looking for someone to destroy! Don't let it be you! Stay alert and stay plugged in, God has the perfect person for you, spend your time with God, seek Him, put Him first and He will give you everything else. I leave you with this bible verse I stumbled upon  ❤️

Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. (Ephesians 5:22-33 ESV)
