Attention: ANT!!! Yes, I'm talking to you ANT!!!

If God has moved you to read this blog of mine, I just want you to think twice... or maybe three or four times about living together with your new boyfriend. If he's really that sincere and that much in love with you... then go ahead and start planning to get married within a year at most... If there's no solid plan to get marry and if you guys are still in the 'wait and see' stage..., then please make sure you don't 'wait and see' at his house. At the very minimum, there has to be an engagement ring or something, but the wedding date shouldn't be left hanging indefinitely...

Anyway, my point is as long as marriage is NOT a 100% sure thing, please don't move in with him. You've heard of the saying... 'absence makes the heart grow fonder', right? Once you move in with him, you'll have no more chances to really 'miss him' anymore... and sometimes you just might find each other annoying after spending so much time together... and without the commitment of marriage, it can just be that much simpler to just give up and break up. So please think things thru.

Anyway, Lord God, if she's not reading my blog, then I hope You will interven in her life somehow to help her make the best decision possible. Help her to be able to attain love and happiness... help her to be able to make wise decisions...

Speaking of 'absence making the heart grow fonder', I wonder if that's God strategy for Mother Teresa? ;) Imagine if Mother Teresa can hear Jesus all the time, by the time she get to heaven, it'd simply be like, 'hey, wazzup Jesus! nice to see you again...' But given that Mother Teresa had been yearning so much for Jesus and she couldn't ever feel his presence for decades... imagine what that face to face meeting was like...

Would Mother Teresa be mad at Jesus?

Or would tears just stream down her face and she'd probably never ever let go of Jesus for all eternity...

Anyway, today's scripture reading was about King Saul. This guy also experienced first hand what's it like to have the presence of God left him. But the difference between him and Mother Teresa is that Mother Teresa continued on doing the will of God... and not her own will... and that was obviously how God continue to bless her ministry and Saul didn't get any of God's blessings.

So ANT, I pray that you'll also learn to do God's will, not your own will or your bf's will.

May God bless you! :)
