Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, actually tomorrow, so I think it’s appropriate to talk about love, don’t you? I think so!
One day, one of my sons said to me, “Mom, I love this girl, and unless I marry her, I won’t be happy for the rest of my life, and I know this for sure.”
I’m reading and studying the Gospel according to Luke this month but for some unknown reason, this passage has been the one I am meditating on since last Saturday:
“Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.” 1 John 2:15-17
A4P Guest: Is my worth as a woman attached to being a virgin?
A4P: What do you mean?
A4P Guest: Does a virgin mean a worthy woman to marry?
A4P: Hmm, I’m not really sure what you are asking me. Give me some background to your story so I can see your question in the same way you see/feel it.
The Bible says, “No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.” 1 John 3:9
In the Old Testament time, the people of God had dos and don’ts. So, they day and night had to keep this in mind to do what they were supposed to do and to stay away from that which would make them a sinner.
