I meant jealous in a good way, really I did!! :-) But regardless, I think it's important you posted everything, even if people do get jealous - the bad kind. Because we need to see GOOd marriages. GOOD things. You know? Otherwise it would be like hiding your light under a bushel. But actually your post gave me hope to hold out for the right person. :-)A Little Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14725496865927066044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433750302606470563.post-86384768621716438132007-09-04T11:47:00.000-05:002007-09-04T11:47:00.000-05:00((((a little dark))))Thanks for being honest. I kn...((((a little dark))))<BR/>Thanks for being honest. I knew I ran the risk of readers feeling jealous when I posted this article. One of my friends outright told me "people will be jealous". I went ahead and posted it because when God meets me at my place of deep need and he uses my husband to do that I just have to celebrate that and brag on God a little bit. Because my husband and I have grown through a lot together and those moments are SO worth celebrating. <BR/><BR/>There was a time that if I read this article I would be jealous too. I'm learning there are 2 kinds of jealousy. There is the jealousy envy really that says "everything that is good is outside the realm of what I have therefore I feel resentful of other's blessings". That kind of envy is the one way ticket to misery. There is also the godly jealousy, desire really that says "God I so want you do that in my life that I will pester you in prayer and let you shape me and change me until that kind of good thing happens in my life". It is my sincere hope you are experiencing the godly desire kind of jealousy not the envy kind of jealousy. I've experienced envy before and it ate my lunch. I wouldn't want anyone to have to go through that.<BR/><BR/>Yes I do understand it doesn't feel the same to have Jesus as your husband as it would to have a live imperfect human being as your husband. One of them is perfect and always affirming but not physically present in human form and one of them is often affirming and is physically present. <BR/>Sounds like you want to be married and you want the comfort and companionship and touch that comes with being married to a good man. Good for you for admitting that desire to yourself and I'm honored you posted here. Those are good desires you have, a little dark! Marriage is a good thing to want. <BR/>Lemme say this: I have a good marriage to a good man. I am blessed and grateful. But there are still important moments where I have to run to God for my affirmation instead of to my husband. I don't blog about the times I feel hurt or dissapointed by my husband's words or actions. I don't want to blog rants. But of course those moments do happen for both of us. Good Lord we're both human! :) I just want to say that Jesus did not become obsolete the moment after I walked down the aisle and my husband put the ring on my finger. I am "jealous" of you because you have access to the book Soul Virgins which was not even written when I was single. I wish I had been able to grow from that info before I got married.<BR/><BR/>Kind of a long response, but your words evoked a lot in my heart. Thank you for sharing your heart like that. -SWSensuous Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01684099151087715262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433750302606470563.post-18019926759958638892007-08-31T08:57:00.000-05:002007-08-31T08:57:00.000-05:00Oh yes!

I know I have Jesus as my husband (being a single woman), it just doesn't always feel the same, you know? :-)A Little Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14725496865927066044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433750302606470563.post-21364010604924133352007-08-20T11:23:00.000-05:002007-08-20T11:23:00.000-05:00Ahoy!

I recall some parts of the book really spoke to my heart and some parts of the book I disagreed with. But I don't recall any part of the book addressing the pain caused by other's rejection. But it's been a long time so maybe I'm missing the connection.Sensuous Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01684099151087715262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433750302606470563.post-64350808411682504152007-08-14T21:37:00.000-05:002007-08-14T21:37:00.000-05:00Have you read "Every Woman's Battle"?
