The girl

[kphiyr]

Shalom Haverim,

I just found out a second ago that my now ex-girlfriend has decided to connect back with her ex-husband yesterday. I'll admit it makes me feel a little sad, but perhaps YHWH was saving me from this. I don't know, nor am I sure that I want to know.

All I really know is He laid out a test and it was very hard to pass it. I'm glad I did, but there are still times I miss her.

I'm betting I'll now have to try my hardest not to be envious of others who are blessed.

I suppose I'll do the Jewish thing and ask Him why. I don't want to hear ill be blessed - I want to see it.

I apologize if this offends anyone.

I appreciate your sharing these personal experiences - even the greatest prophets (Mosheh, included!) sometimes had it so tough that even THEY wished they hadn't been born, until they saw the end result of why God put them through those things.

But definitely, now you see a larger context to the previous relationship that could have been REALLY difficult to handle (ex-husband drama, etc), which you've avoided. What other bullets could you dodging without even knowing it :)?

Shalom Ya'aqov Walker,

Todah for replying with wisdom.

I'm positive Yah has protected me from bullets. He did so for me today in regards to something else personal.  I know He shields others and I'd be willing to bet everything that I have in that He has also shielded you this way. 

There is a strong trend in me. I grow impatient with things that I know He will do no matter how odd or unlikely they are. I'm a bit childlike in a lot of ways, which I'm betting you have noticed.

I know you are correct in regards to what you say about His Nevi'im. 

Seriously, thank you.

And You have protected me

Yet I am distressed.

May You never take away Your Lovingkindness from me again. For I could not live knowing Your Spirit is gone. 

Praise יהוה of Hosts!

Praise His Holy Name!

It's just a part of growing older and wiser :)
