![]() I have a blog I post on once a while…if you are interested you could take a look at it. It may get tough along the way, but don’t give up. I will take your name down and will be praying for you and your baby also and pray that even as you begin this journey, God will hold your hand and walk with you every step of the way, giving you the strength you need even as you take the steps towards pursuing purity. I wish you the very best and please keep praying for your baby, committing him/her to God each day. I would encourage you to spend time with God and seek His face each day, reading His word, in worship and in prayer and ask Him to guide you each day on the path that He wants you to follow.ĭon’t give up and don’t lose hope. Continue to look to God, trust Him, believe Him and know that all things work together for your good…trust me they do! It’s written in God’s word. Hello Aretha! Hope you are hanging in there! I just read this and just want you to know that God is more than faithful and will see you through. Purity in the Obedient (Status, Satisfaction, and Substance).Purity in the Oblivious (Authority, Appearance, and Appetite).Purity in the Obscure (Meandering, Modesty, and Meekness).Purity in the Obvious (Flirting, Flattery, and Foolishness).Purity in Order (Power, Protection, and Peace).Pondering Purity (Questionnaire and Discussion).“Practice Three Person Teaching – Learn from God, Teach Another” It is a good story, so check back here from time to time or sign up for email updates.Īgain, thank you for dropping by and please take part in the discussions and exchange of ideas on this site. I will post more about my story as I compile it. So, journey with us as we make our way through the bible study and devotions. With all the things that contaminate and pollute your life are removed (or are in the process of being removed) – you will see Him too. Though I cannot see Him physically, I can see and I do know where the Lover of my soul has been in my life. In John 3:8, Jesus tells us that ‘ The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh. My answer ‘I have seen God.’ And, I’d like to share with you how to get to this purity of heart. Was it worth it? Take the bible study and you decide. The road gets bumpy, some days are lonely, many times despair filled me so I felt I could hardly breathe. But do not feel as though this is an easy ride. He gave me a hint of fellowship so sweet, that I pursue Him to this day. How did God do this with me? The answer is not easy to hear. If you dare to take Him at His word, He will fill your life with such adventure and incredible awe that you simply cannot contain it. But, God in His infinite wisdom and grace, took me through ten years of learning, ten years of communion with Him, ten years of ‘quiet desperation’ that when it was all over, it was if I woke up and discovered I was simply not the same person. There was at time in my life when purity of heart was the absolute last thing on my mind. My question is ‘should we skim over it?’ If this is the formula for seeing God, to be pure in heart, then shouldn’t we pursue that? Shouldn’t we set our hearts on path to have this purity of heart? “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” There is a short verse in Matthew that packs such a punch that most people read it and then, because it almost incompressible, they skill over to the next verse. Purity includes far more areas that simply sex. But this project is not focused on just sexual purity. A discussion or teaching on sexual purity is such a wide topic, it could fill the pages of many books. Why am I writing this three book project? Because there are many good books on the subject of purity but most limit discussion of purity to simply sexual purity. Please feel free to download the study and go through the lessons individually or in your bible study group. ![]() The entire project includes a three books: Pursuing Purity (a non-fiction book for women), Pursuing Purity: A Bible Study for Women, and Pursuing Purity: A Devotional for Women. Thank you for taking time to join me here on the Pursuing Purity Project. ![]()
