To Be One-Review

To Be One- Three couples journey to Be One.


 

 

As we watched this movie/documentary my heart grieved because I can not say that this was my testimony when I found my husband/beloved and through years of stumbling around, God has been merciful to me and my beloved. He has protected us, our marriage and our children in spite of our ignorance and sin in the past.

Hsa 4:6

The children are growing and as we have grown in the Lord- and we (my beloved and I) have tried to show them that only through Christ do all things come including a spouse. 

Humans are followers doing as they see others do- in society it teaches our children to try as many as you can try before settling your heart on one. We believe that is a lie, that teaches the heart never to be satisfied, to always to be displeased and to trust emotions to mandate their relationship. As we all know our emotions can be deceiving and lead us in a way that would not be God honoring.

This film is 3 couples lives who are completely guided by the Lord Jesus Christ, using the authorities(parents) as guides to the path that God would have each of them go. In the end the Lord was reverenced and each spoke deeply into the hearts of my young people that through obedience to the Word, and to their authorities they are honoring God and their parents. What a great testimony and example.

Here are their comments:

 

Paul 19 years old

ā€œ This film reminded me of the choices I have made in the past that have left scars. Coming to Christ in a real way and finding the ā€œnarrowā€ way is the really the PERFECT WAY!  I find myself questioning how courtship is going to work for me. I find myself praying that the Lord do a work in my heart to prepare me.  Watching those testimonies, God gave me an assurance what He did for them He will do for me.ā€

 

Alexander 18 years old

ā€œ The thing that stood out the most for me is the part about the Lord’s Supper. How the Lord’s supper is a reminder of the betrothal we have with Christ. I think when I get a hold of that in my heart I will be ready for courtship and marriage. I will be able to appreciate what courtship means.ā€

 

Samuel 16 years old and Maria 14 years old

ā€œ What pressed on our heats was watching how they did it correctly in a God honoring way. How God blessed them through their courtships because they honored God and how they honored their parents the way the bible states.ā€

 

Joseph 13 years old

ā€œ What pressed on my heart was seeing how God does bring wives to you and blesses you for waiting. It makes me want to wait and have my parents help guard my heart so that they can help me look for a wife through God’s guidance.ā€

 

This film is a must have for every Christian home, especially those whose hearts is for their children to be pure till marriage!!! To purchase go to the website  To Be One

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Goodbye Facebook...Hello thoughts...

Well I did... I took the plunge and deactivated my facebook. It is amazing how much of a time consumer it is. It eats time like you would not believe. I am hoping, praying with this new found time, and lack of distraction that it will give me motivation to blog more. As my young men get older, move closer and closer in considering that step towards becoming one with someone.. I have come to realize there are so many resources out there pointed at men and what they need to do, or what they need to be as men to get married. The sad thing is there is hardly anything for young women. Today I challenge Paul to look at a questionaire done by Stacey and James McDonald( you can find it on Staceys  blog thesacredcalling.com)  that they put together for young suitors for their daughters. After reading it he came down so heavy hearted. Guess the realization of the spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities of it all became very burdensome. Of course I shared how we could do noth...

Saying "I love you"...

Thinking about these words. These words that are to express our deepest emotions. These words that are to leave us vunerable and open, just do not seem to have the impact they use to. Many people use these words so fleeting. They use them as if to say "thank you", or "I thought about you today". For me "I love you" is not an easy thing to say. If I say I love you- I mean it from way down deep in my heart. They are not just words to be said but also words, that are to be put into action. Have you ever thought about that? When someone says "I love you", do they show through their actions that they love you?  or do they leave you going Huh, really? I have had those thoughts, wondering if the person who has declared their love really does love me because actions speak louder than words to me. I hear their words but then on the other hand see their actions and  they do not act like a person who even cares about my well being. Jesus never states in the...
