Then don't be forward, ye hussies. Take off your shoes, go back to the kitchen, and wait.

I love Yahoo!answers where someone posted the following question:

Should you pray for a husband or wait?

Okaaaaaay.

They got the following answer which is so perfect, it's reproduced in its entirety:

yolanda, you should do both. Pray for the man God has prepared for you and wants you to have.

The problem with many women who wind up in lowsy relationships is that they have the wrong criterion for a man. And know little about what they should expect in a truly Godly man.

You should know that if you are the type of woman described in the proverbs for us men to look for, then God does have a man ready for you, and is seeking you. For you are likened unto a valuable treasure; as all God's daughters are.

The treasure never seeks the treasure hunter. There is a good reason for this too. For look at it this way. If the treasure is seeking a particular hunter, jumping from one place to the next, how does it know that the hunter is looking in place that the treasure just left. Liken that unto the good woman. For if you have looked around and jumped to some other man... a Godly man would not consider you because you belong to another.

SO be patient my sista. Trust that God is working on h.i.m. that will love you til your dieing day. A truly Godly man is not perfect, but God will make h.i.m. perfect for you. Selah.

He will come soon. Maybe not as soon as you like, but it will be soon as compared to the time you would have to spend waiting on the next one once you've missed the initial one.

As for me, when I missed and messed up on the first Godly treasure that I had in my life (way back in the 9th grade), it was almost 20 years before I came accross a next treasure of that calibre... and you can best believe that when I found her... I made certain that I made my self known... for she trusted God, and God gave her a man just like she wanted: Not perfect; but perfect for her. And sad to think of it, but she said, about the same amount of time went by for her...

Learn from our mistake... k?

p.s.
beware the devils that have responded to your question. For the devil wants you to believe as they do. Trust in H.I.M. that created you. And you will prevail. Selah.


I confess to being puzzled as to what the Japanese Emperor has to do with it and why he is supposed to be the questioner's Dad (the only H.I.M. aka 'His Imperial Majesty' left around is the Emperor of Japan), especially since he is not a Christian, but I suppose the Godly people know what I do not.

There is also the following question:

How many Vile Temptresses does it take for an Amish man to finally give in?

Heh.

This sounds like one of those light bulb jokes. I'm waiting to hear the punchline.

I sob. And not just for the sentiments.

lowsy...h.i.m.(it's Him and His YOU FREAKING MORON! Just browse through any chapter of the Bible you likely claim to always have on hand to see how do do it properly! *hem*)...us men...treasure of that calibre...

I think I need to go see my father and brother to be remembered that not all Christian men are sexists who view women as breakable decorations.

Ah, Christian dating advice...it's a scary thing sometimes. My "favorite" was a woman who said you shouldn't say things like, "I won't kiss until my wedding day" because it's up to the guy and your dad to decide how physical your relationship can get before the wedding. Um...what?

Well in Europe whenever you spell H.I.M. it is short for Lucifer -> His Infernal Majesty.

It's really nice of God to do repeats. I hate it when I miss things the first time around.

Now I know where the term bed-hopping comes from! Never knew that the treasure could be that mobile:)

Heh!

Isn't H.I.M also a Scandinavian band that relies heavily on homoerotic stage-play and eye-makeup?
