She tells me "don't worry about standards right now.. they will come in time."
and I thought.. Okay, Almost ten yrs later, if "standards" were going to be in my heart, I'd think they'd be written on the flesh tablets by now!!

I just smiled at her and said "... pastor ---- is a good man! But I disagree with standards.. and that's that..."
The woman replies "..ask God and He will put the standards in your heart...."

and before I could say anything I was called in for X-rays.

I loove this woman. She and her family were always good to me. But I am amazed at that kind of thinking.. "ask God and He will put the standards in your heart.."


I'm just venting a little..
Berk why not open your heart and allow God to deal with all the issues you have ,especially the issue you have with "standards".Sometimes God is dealing with us,sends people along our path to show us the way.

Don't be so sure!! I would say that if you keep running into these people maybe you should reconsider your stance on standards.

I don't even see what problem a man would have with standards unless he was looking for a woman that looked like a hooch
