This line ay matatagpuan sa book ni Prophet Amos ang chapter ay 3 verse 3. Though the context of the verse is about the agreement of God and His prophets, the principle is applicable
Maybe some of you already read my content about pursuing someone. As a man of God, when the right time comes na prayerfully ay pinili mong maging ready sa pamamagitan ng guidance ni Lord, you should pursue her.
But . . . . here’s the thing . .
It’s not one sided. Yes! you heard it right.
The men pursue and the women communicate.
Collab pala ito . .
But the Scripture is saying that this should be done in purity and in accordance with the Lord’s guidance. Sabi nga sa Philippians 4: 8, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”
Uulitin ko, think about these things.
Sabi sa Proverbs 31:10, "She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above rubies or pearls." Ganyan kahalaga ang isang babae and syempre ang lalaki rin. Your worth ay both na matatagpuan in Christ.
Men, you should pursue her but not to the point that you lose yourself in the process. Give yourself a “Self-respect”. Women, communicate but also give yourself boundaries. Again that’s “Self-Respect”. Sabi nga ni Ellen White sa Testimonies To The Church Volume 2, p. 135, “Self-respect may lead us to avoid the appearance of evil.”
Remember, Love is NOT about "give and take". It's about giving freely without relying on the reward or the reciprocation.
Discernment from the Lord will serve as your guidance.
Trust is built over time.
