I realize people have a good heart and Christians want to witness and make contact with church members and/or friends/family that need to be in church and become a Christian. We are all to show ourselves friendly and to help others.
There comes a time though when it is wrong for a single, divorced woman to text me about my husband’s church attendance and if she can contact him and encourage him. No!
What makes me crazed about this situation is that she should know better. We have heard the same messages at church.
How or what would you do?
There are many of us women (wives) that attend church alone, I see it all the time.

I want to text her back and might at some point or see her at church and if asked, say that her requirement as a single, divorced woman should only be to pray for him. For a woman to contact a married man is not okay in my books. This opens up a whole can of worms, as they say.
Whether or not my marriage is perfect is none of her business or others; there is still a marriage license in force.
I’m just floored that she had the gall to contact me but I guess she feels we are friends, close enough that is to either get the scoop or my permission. No! If I was not so nice, I would rip into her. If there is definite contact made, I will.

Sometimes, I just shake my head and this was one of those moments. Crazy enough and just like the Lord, I was questionning her a few months back about an interest in him, figuring it was just a fear on my part. Now, I wonder if that was a warning. No matter. No!
Pay attention to your gut instincts!
If he goes to church with me or not. None of your business. He is a grown man, too, and he has choices of his own whether to go or not. Not mine. Not yours.
As Christians, we are to pray for others.
In passing, to invite to church is one thing. There are other men in the church that should be reaching out to care and witness to other men, not a single, divorced woman. Same with women contacting other women with care and concern. It’s conservative and respectful but for a reason.
Sometimes, I am just amazed at people and crazy enough, church people.
Today I picked up a photo book I put together of pictures and memories from early on to the end of our dog’s life. Neither my husband or I had a dog growing up so getting one along with having young boys, I was asking for more work. What was I thinking? I remember at the beginning, fifteen years ago, this puppy then followed me around the house, just like a toddler. I remember it driving me crazy.
I was done with that stage and yet I am back in this mode. The puppy stage! Yikes. Perhaps ignorance on our part, too, and trusting this animal in my house with wood floors and a potty mishap. I was so done.
While my husband and boys bonded with this dog, I had not. With the urine accident, a day off work, we had a meeting of the minds. I told this sweet, beautiful dog that this was not to happen ever again. Strangely enough, it did not. It was that day, we bonded. Just like correcting a child, you correct and then you love. Amazing.
I looked at her and said, okay, no more. It was time. I knew she was then ready although we were not, yet we were for her.
It’s Mothers Day! To each of you, Happy Mother’s Day. 💕
So this quiet, rainy and subdued day after church, I took a long nap. I will finish my day preparing for my work week and be happier when I open my eyes in the morning, as I made it through. Being a mother is one of the best, fulfilling positions in life, ever. Sometimes though, it has been and it is hard. Still, I would drop anything to do for them. They have been my life and reason for living.
