Forget the phrase “Let a man pursue you”

If you are a woman of God, you should be pursuing God first and only.

Any man that God brings into your life romantically, should also be pursuing God.

Both of you come together and pursue God together.

The phrase “let the man pursue you”, always made me feel unworthy and unloved if I was not being pursued.

A man’s love has never satisfied me, has never made me feel whole, and have never brought me comfort, joy, or security.

Only the love of God brings me complete peace, complete joy, pure happiness, complete surrender, meaning and fulfillment.

How can I submit to a husband if I cannot submit to God?

Allow yourself to submit to God first. To be your husband first. Allow yourself to pursue God first.

God is always pursuing us and we consistently ignore him and spend little time with him.

I have learned that a great man is one who loves God and will do anything for him.

I also need to love God more than anything and anyone of this earth.

Let your husband and you compete with who can love God more.

Who is willing to sacrifice more, fast more, pray more, worship more, submit more.

The more you both draw near to God, the more God draws near to you.

Pursue God more than your earthly husband.

Stop worrying about when you will meet him.

Don’t even say God will bring him in the right time and in the right season.

Your life is more than waiting for a man to pursue you or waiting to get married.

Your life should be a testimony of constant pursuit toward God and the man he allows in your life is only there to help you pursue God even more.

Focus on pursuing God, not a man’s pursuit of you .

Sarai Syndrome. 

Sarai syndrome. 

Waiting for something for years. So many years. The more you think about it, it all becomes tears. You’ve fought long and hard to be ok. Long and hard to believe the truth. The lies scream loudly and talk holding with no proof. The Sarai syndrome has got you again. Don’t forget you’re on your way to the promise land. Bumps and bruises will all occur. Many struggles and pain you will have to endure. Only the grace of God will get you through. Only your love for him can follow through. Your love for him will draw you near. Your love for him will be so clear. He will make a way where there is no way. Yet here you are again staring at a brick wall. You know the promise is true but it takes a long time to see. It’s not on your time but on Gods and only then will you see. You laugh, you get mad, you don’t understand. You’re frustrated , tired, weary for all the pain. Emotional, mental, spiritual, it’s all a drain. The only one to pull you through gave you a promise to hold onto. The promise keeps you going when you feel like giving up and throwing it all away. Then you remember there’s brighter days coming. The promise must come true. You’re not dead yet so there is still so much for you. So much for you to discover, experience, and enjoy. The hard times only make you stronger, better. They bring you close to God and his glory. He’s not afraid of your mess. He’s not afraid of your dirty. Bring it to him to cleanse you off and make you white as snow. Believe it will get better. Believe your heart will grow. Your roots will grow deeper and deeper rooted in him. Oh now wait the Sarai syndrome starts to begin. You spiral down all once again. Sinning seems likes it’s winning until you realize who you are again. You are chosen, you are destined, you are created to do great things. Your promise will change the world and you are raging within. You want to see what lies ahead and try to live in the now. You wonder how can you make it another day without the one thing you long for. Allow Christ to comfort your soul. Right before during and after the Sarai syndrome unfolds.
