Praying for babysnow
Mon, 01-10-2005 - 10:39am
Hello ladies! I was going through posts yesterday and some things really hit home. I went to bed with babysnowdragon on my mind and woke up with her on my mind. She's in my prayers and I know she's going to get out this ok.
One of the things that stays in my mind is love and what I believe its true definition is. Whenever I get lonely or start to miss my ex, I refer to a verse in the Bible that really opened my eyes to how bad my situation was.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres....
I'm not one to force religion on anyone but whether you believe in God or not, this verse is exactly what love should be.
Sadly, it is us who loves these men without getting the love and treatment we deserve in return. Don't blame yourself for anything Babysnowdragon, nothing he does is your fault because as adults we're responsible for our own actions. Noone can MAKE anyone do anything. It's a contious choice.
My prayers are with you babysnow. God bless you and all the ladies here.
