just random thoughts on realtionships

  • I was just wanting to share some feelings and thoughts that have been on my mind for some time now, it seems to me we have forgotten so much through time, we have lost old fashion values somewhere along the line, and I hope that as a minister I can work these things in my ceremony’s for weddings funerals and much more, I come from a era where the man worked and the woman took care of the home, I aint saying we women should only be home we live in different times, but the values I speak of is the love you have should be true, I see so many young people who have no clue what relationships are about, love is blind, you should not judge by the looks of a person, love is kind, you should treat others how you want them to treat you love does not judge your wealth rather you have tons of money or live on fixed incomes that should not keep you from finding true love, I am a Lutheran by the grace of God, I only teach what I know to teach but I believe there are many other ways to believe in, the color sex or disability of a person should never come between us, God is about Love and kindness and forgiveness and yet we sometimes hold on to anger when it needs to be let go. I remember when I was younger my mom loved to watch Little House on the Prairie and The Walton’s, they believed in some really good values and somehow we have let them slip away. Yes I have tattoos, yes I smoke cigarettes and I have a beer once in a while or a glass of wine, I even love to ride on the back of a Harley I have my very own faults and understand others have them as well, all I can do is ask for forgiveness and love the way God says to love, yes I am single and my dream is one day the right man for me will walk up to me and we will know, it’s so hard though people are more shallow then they should be so many think you have to look like a barbi doll have no health issues I am only what God wanted me to be and I refuse to change that for anyone. as a minister I want to help teach others the Love God wants us to know and understand, I want to help the young people learn our lord put us here for reasons known only to him, but will be shown to us when the time comes. These are just some random thoughts and feelings I have had and wish to share maybe there are more out there like me and just did not know how to say things, well to be honest I still am not sure how to say things I just started typing and words formed together. So I end my blog today with this. We are all God’s children and he will never let us down. And somewhere out there we have the right person for each of us we just got to wait for god to bring up together

    Betty Outlaw I agree, Sherry, we have gotten away from those values that were important to our parents and grandparents. I have been a Christian all my life and have attended many churches: Baptist, United Methodist, Presbyterian (where I was an Elder) even visited wi...  more
