site moderator broken engagement

sermonindex Aug 9, 2007

Saints,

I posted a thread on myself (Greg) being engaged to Siobhan almost a month ago. I am very saddened and grieved in my heart to have to post this again to state that I have broken off the engagement with her. I ask fully for forgiveness from the saints here on this website for my lack of discretion and wisdom in making the choice to be engaged. There are many issues that I have been working through that left me at a place of uncertainty and doubtfulness in the midst of the engagement. One of these reasons is that she was "put away" by her husband and has 2 kids. Other reasons are the lack of purity and prayerfulness in the time leading up to the engagement and within. Things were rushed and pushed in my timing not God's.

I had to follow the prompting God has put in my heart to stop the engagement believing this is more fair to siobhan. I ask all of you saints to please pray for both of us in this very difficult and straining situation. I believe God has good to make out of this and my heart rests in that fact. But please do pray for nonetheless it is a very hard and grieving time for both of us.

please pray.

Thank you for your courage Mr. Gordon and your openness in sharing things in your life. I will be praying for you and the lady and for every decision in life. I know others will being praying as well for you. We should all pray for each other. We all know God is able to solve everything, in every situation, if we will but trust him and we also should know he will equip us with whatever is neccesary to be at peace with whatever steps HE orders. I don't know what those steps are in your life. I don't know what many are is mine. That's why each us need to fellowship with him and each other daily and be in HIS WORD for those steps.

Heb 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
KJV

Greg and Siobhan

I have always loved the song “Family of God” in case you are not familiar with it, here it is.

You will notice we say "brother and sister" 'round here,
It's because we're a family and these folks are so near;
When one has a heartache, we all share the tears,
And rejoice in each victory in this family so dear.

Chorus
I'm so glad I'm a part of the Family of God,
I've been washed in the fountain, cleansed by His Blood!
Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod,
For I'm part of the family,
The Family of God

I will not try and pretend that I can fully feel your pain, but my heart does ache for you both.

You are in my prayers brother and sister.

Grace and Peace

Dear brother and sister
I wanted to say that I will pray for you both. I know the heart ache that your going through is deep but by following Jesus and putting God first above your own desires brings glory to His name. I know your love for God supersedes everything else and it is a rare thing into todays Christian to see someone sacrifice self to submit their life to the Lord in such a way. I will pray He will give you both strength and wisdom to continue to put Him first in the days to come and that you will know without a doubt what His will is for you as you walk in the light.

God Bless
MaryJane
