My Ex Lady Friend and I....

I broke up with the last lady I loved back in 2008.

She had attended a Pentecostal church off and on for about 4 years, but as we drew closer to marriage she made it clear to me that she was not going to be Pentecostal-- let alone Apostolic.

It was a painful break up, very painful.

We didn't do everything right, but the Lord knows that I loved her.

She knew too.


That is why when I had the chance to maybe make things work out with her again, I paused.

She made the first step and after thought and discussion, we both agreed that it just wouldn't work.

She cited "religion" specifically. I brought it up in a way where she could (if she was inclined) to let let me know that she had decided that she would be willing to attend a Pentecostal assembly of some sort with me. However, she was clear in confirming that nothing had changed in her mind concerning her rejection of Pentecost.

I wish, really wish we could make things work-- and we could, but I'm just not willing to walk away from Pentecost all together, despite my untraditional Apostolic views.


I really wish I had a lady to love. I miss her so much.

Still truth be told, when we broke up back in 2008, I was much better off financially than I am now.

I can't even really afford to have a lady in my life now.


I'm not feeling sorry for myself, but I really do wish things would hurry up and chage for the better.

I am doing what I can.

Please join me in prayer for God to do what seems to be so difficult for me.

(Admin, I didn't think about this until after I had started this thread, but can you move this to the prayer room? Thanks.)

Re: My Ex Lady Friend and I....

German,

I am so glad to see that you did not just ignore this huge difference and jump into marriage. You were very wise to realize how serious this was.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

We are NOT getting back together but, she has been attending a Pentecostal Church the last couple of months.

God truly answers prayers!
