Comment…. or disconnect? Cree’s Blog Entry

big likeAs the days go by I am reminded by God to take deep breaths as he continue to work with me on my Anger issues. I am not afraid to declare this issue of mines. As a matter of fact, it has helped me to STAY CONSCIENCE of arising situations that causes me to speak on a matter when nothing needs to be said.

This morning, I was having a moment when I wanted to comment on a post on FB that was a result of what I posted on yesterday. Instead of commenting on my post, this person made their own . I wanted so badly to comment.. but I know me… I don’t just comment…. I CAN SHUT THE WHOLE STAT DOWN….no curse words…. just TRUTH. But God asked me… “must you fight off all fools Cree”? He said now, you either continue reading and NOT COMMENT…. or totally disconnect… chose one? LOL LOL

He also revealed to me another reason why I have this issue with anger. He reminded me that when we were coming up as teens, me, my brother plus 2 sisters. We had real true friends. Our porch was the one everybody came to sit at EVERYDAY. To this day we still have the same friends… all of them are still in our lives after 32-35 years… everyone is still alive. WE never talked about each other, we never turned on each other, we all loved each other and people saw that in our friendships. We didn’t fight each other AT ALL.. PERIOD…. NEVER EVER.. AT ALL. NOT ONCE. We argued and debated but we were cool everyday. And so, this mentality of how I view friends took me over into my adult years. I went to a Wrap and Wine party this past Saturday at my good friend Gloria’s house. I met 10 women… not one thing I had to say about any of them when I left. You know how when you leave a function, or gathering, and there is something to be said negative about someone… anyone…. I’m not use to that type of mentality. So, I’m like okay God.. how does this tie into me? Well, that’s one of my triggers. When people ALWAYS have negative things to say about others. I don’t like that.

Now I am silly… If I’m out to dinner with some friends, and one of them are throwing down on some food and its a silly moment.. I may say something stupid like…. OOO chile you putting that fork da WORK BABY!!! LOL But everybody knows I’m silly and will expect for me to say it. Now…… if that person is not riding home with me, and I’m with others that was there….. I may hit back on that subject, in a funny NON OFFENDING WAY. And its going to be something said that I would say to THAT person I’m speaking about. I wouldn’t DARE go call up another person and talk and bring it up. That’s childish to me, and its drama filled. But to say… oooo that dress she had on was a mess, or she know she was busting out. WE * * just don’t disrespect our friendships like that. As friends we don’t talk about each other, if we offend, we talk, debate, and kiss and make up on the spot. I don’t sit at the table with folks who I will talk about, and dog out when I’m not in their presence.

NOW, I SAY THAT TO SAY….. I am offended by the way people today just totally talk down to each other, diss, curse, and are ready to fight each other these days. We allow so many people to “geek” us up to go with the popular, that we don’t even realize that its going to hurt us in the long run. This type of disrespectful behavior gets into my soul and breaks me down. Why even be around people you have to discuss and talk about? What point is that? I’m just saying people, … we have to do better with our energy. I’m so happy that I’m learning my triggers. So let me name them…. BULLIES, PEOPLE WHO TALK ABOUT OTHERS IN A MALICE AND MALICIOUS way, people who are RUDE.. and folks who DO NOT KNOW/CARE TOO… HOW TO TALK TO ANOTHER PERSON in a respectful tone. But….. I’ve been doing soooooooooo good… yeaaaaaaaa. I’m proud of myself. Chat layta.

Be Blessed

My Virgo Friend, Married Men….Cree’s Blog Entry

creefaceI was just going through the papers in my file cabinet and I wrote a love story about 15 years ago. I’m reading it now and its so interesting how I came up with it. I realized that in my story I used so many things that was real life to me at that time. For instance my family and friends, things that happened that I totally forgot was added in the story. Different people I knew… I even forgot about them. LOL So as a writer, I see and know for my self that a lot of movies, and books people write have something to do with their own personal experiences, people they know, places and events that actually happened. Wow…. so it inspired me to start another LOVE STORY as I type this. It just flows out of my head… yeah I’m such a nerd while everyone is out enjoying the summer, I find myself reading and writing all day, just as I did as a child. Well, at least I have that option… I can jump in my van and go anywhere I want….. but this… I CHOOSE.

So, I made friends with my Virgo friend who lives in the building. I guess he seen that yeah… I was nice…yeah I did share a lot…. and yeah I have teeth too…. that bite. I can tell he missed me. I missed his crazy self too. Whew that man knows he love to debate…. and strong minded whew…. but I’m a VIRGO too…. and I can go just as hard. But that’s not who I want to be. He called me, and we talked. He told me that he found him two housekeepers who come cook and clean for him…. Yeaaaaa…. cause <SHE> aint the one. I understand that he needed it, and that’s all good….. but I’m NOT <HER>…… at all. I’m trying to do <ME>…. my daughter is grown, living on her own.. and making good money for herself.

So, I have this other friend….I met him about 10 years ago. We dated, at first I liked him, but I just wasn’t attracted to him. When I like a man, I like to visualize being with him… not so much as sexual. But when he’s not around… I like to think about him, and try to remember his scent, his kisses. With this guy I just wasn’t feeling him in this way. He really liked me, and I liked him as a friend and so it didn’t work out. We were never sexually involved, we did communicate a lot, but I wasn’t feeling him that way. Well one day after several years had passed, when I was working at Walmart, he came through my line and looked at me REAL MEAN and said…..” I’m getting married” then walked OUT. LOL I was like OKKKKKKK. * laughs a little*. Aint gon lie… did leave me feeling some kinda way. Not so much as…. dang… I wish it was me…. but I wonder what was behind him telling me about it this way?

I was happy for him, but then after several years, he started calling me wanting to talk about how he and his wife separated. I listened to him, we were friends and I was happy for him. When someone is not your type, and you cant see yourself with them….I feel its okay to talk every now and then, as long as the conversation never becomes sexual. He introduced me to her, and we were cool. One day he came up to my job, when he saw me, I guess he had flash backs I don’t know. He’s about 6’5. as I reached up to hug him, he grabbed both of my booty cheeks and squeezed them. I was sooooooooooooooooo mad, and sooooooooo embarrassed. He kept apologized 1000 times saying he was sorry, and that he couldn’t help it. OMG I was ON FIRE!!! At my job? A Virgo? He’s married? That’s one thang you don’t do….. is embarrass a VIRGO. I said to him… its going to be a LONG time before you see me again… I hope your hands are happy boo.

I made good on that promise. YEARS AND YEARS LATER.. LOL One day recently he text me out of the blue. He tells me that he and his wife is fine and that they are together… and you know me…. I’m happy for him. Very good. Praise God. The conversation is going so good…. then he sends several photos of himself wrapped in a towel. Disrespectful to the 100th power. I came to the conclusion that we can’t be friends at all period. He doesn’t know how to act. He cant help it.. okay I get it. But you will not DISRESPECT your WIFE…. and dam sure not ME. I never responded. He kept apologizing as he always does.

The point I’m TRYING to make is………. women stop settling for these types of men. Don’t let these kinds of men creep into your household, and make you apart of him. A person who has a WIFE… family, and you on the side. I realize that as long as I’m his “friend” I am apart of his BS…. mentally speaking. And I don’t even like him like that….. I KNOW better than this. Then last week, he got on Facebook, showing photos of him and his wife plus kids at Universal Studios. Which he has EVERY RIGHT to do. Married women do the same thing…. always keeping that “friend” on the side… yea she may really be JUST a friend…. but when it because a sexual conversation… someone took it to another level. LEAVE THAT ALONE!

Proud of ME……Cree’s Blog Entry

note to breatheWow, I’m writing another day. So proud of myself, learning to be consistent in things. I had a great planned day. I had a headache earlier, just going through something’s right now. After watching TD Jakes “In the mix” sermon 8/18/2013….. God gave me answers to what happened to me on Friday of last week. Nothing bad, but it happened and there is nothing I can do about it.

Anywayyyyyyy… LOL I was watching the Season Premiere of Basketball Wives tonight. As I was listening to Evelyn tell her story about her and Chad, I couldn’t help but think about her ANGER issues. How quick she was to throw a glass in someone’s face, how she smacked folks, and threw drinks. She is what I called a Basketball Wives Bully. And I’m not in NO WAY saying that she got what she DESERVED when she was head butted by her husband. No, no, no, way am I saying that. But I am saying that you get what you put out there. The part that she seem not to get is that it came back to her with a MAN…. HER HUSBAND whom she had only been married to a little over a month. This wasn’t even a PRIVATE matter, it was PUBLIC one….. everyone heard about her story. Worst than anything she has ever done to anyone. She said that she felt that everyone was saying that she got what she deserved. Can you imagine all the people she’s fell out with, laughing, talking, and happy to see her this way? Oh……..this is pay back for many people.

I hope that she sees the bigger picture here. She cried a lot, and I really felt bad for her. But she has to understand what she did to others ** terrorized* folks, she got back in a different FORM. That’s what she wasn’t expecting. You can’t go around bullying people, and think you’re going to go off and live this happy RICH LAVISH life. If she doesn’t get the bigger picture…..she’s going to find herself angrier, and in more trouble than this time. I really hope that her friends, and her time with Iyanla has helped….. we shall see. I’m routing for ya gurl.

I know I need to be in bed….. I need to take my mom to see The Butler…. she doesn’t know I’ve already seen it…. I don’t think I could tell her.

Another day and I’m doing good with my ANGER ISSUES. I’m working hard to get passed this one. I’m conscience of my thought pattern on what triggers me. I have to share this real quick funny story. When I was on my 3rd day of this, (((God is my teacher))) my daughter wanted Subway before she went home, and just next door was Jets Pizza.

I ordered pizza but stayed in the van until 15 minutes was up. Well after she got her subway, I somehow missed when she walked over to Jets to see if my pizza was ready. So after 15 minutes , I walked in and there she was. She had paid for my food and everything. When I asked her was it ready, she said No. I was shocked because it was well over 20 minutes. I went to the counter and asked the lady was a pizza for Walker ready? She looked over at the one pizza that was “waiting for its owner”, and said No….. just a few more minutes. So, I’m like okay…. before I turned around to chat with my daughter….I heard God loud and clear when he said …..”LaCrease that’s your pizza up there.” I looked over there and said in my mind ” No God, she said it wasn’t mine. LOL He said yes… that’s your pizza. I knew I heard his voice… I kept saying… No, the lady said it wasn’t ready. I knew it was, but I just didn’t want to believe it, because I could feel my heat gauge moving….. I’m about to RAISE THE ROOF! My daughter didn’t know what I was thinking, but my facial expression had totally change, she thought I was getting mad because it was taking so long. She said momma, I’m going back to the van and started smiling like…..OH BOY.

So, I’m standing there at the counter, when the lady calls 2 other people and my food was ordered before theirs. I said ummmmmm excuse me (((( in my business voice))))) to the same lady WHO TOLD ME NO MY PIZZA WASNT READY……I see that their pizza is ready…. can you please check to see if that pizza up there is mines. She said sure, went back and picked up the same pizza SHE TOLD ME NO to…. when she read the paper, and looked up at me…. I knew it WAS mines…she said ” Maam I am so sorry”. We can make you another one. I just stared at her a good 2 minutes between her handling me the pizza, and me actually grabbing it to leave. I was so MADD.

As I’m walking to the van… God is asking me…. Why are you mad? I said because my pizza was up there ALL THAT TIME. He said… but didn’t I tell you that was your pizza the moment you walked in? I said yess… but.. He said then why are you SO ANGRY? Do you think she did it on purpose? I said no… because she doesn’t know me. This was only a few weeks ago, I enjoy the questions God ask me to get to my reasons…. and when I do… its not even worth being angry. I went home and tore that pizza up!!! LOL I think that he likes to sit back with his arms crossed watching to see what I’m going to do. I was proud of myself, I felt him looking over my shoulders. Whew the test I’ve had…..its worth it, because I no longer want to be this way… NO MORE!!!! NO MORE… NO MORE NO MORE!!! ((((smiling)))) And I’m going to write about it every week to keep me on track.

My Birthday is coming up Sep 3…. I’ll be 46. Yes!

Be Blessed

Men….Stop that!

shann and daughtersSo, today I’m back on track.

Me and HE, have decided to be friends. He’s so funny and so cool. I love a man who has plenty of conversation. Sexy, handsome, thick, friendly, love helping people, love to laugh and talk. Um. So, with that said….. no phone calls to him, only talks in person when he’s here. I’m good with it. I learned the less you talk to a man and just listen, he loves that. I just hate that when men see me as a listener, that they think my mentality is weak. But then as soon as they get to know me… they say I want all the POWER, control, want everyone to see things my way, STRONG MINDED, bossy, when I make up my mind on something… ITS A DONE DEAL.  So men stop thinking just because a woman listens to you that she is SUBMISSIVE AND WEAK. Stop that. Because when she shows you her other side, you will look at her differently….good or bad. I’m a sweet person, I HATE DRAMA AND GOSSIP… but I love to laugh, talk, take rides, city trips, go near water and just chill. In the meantime…. my book is calling.

I was reading an article that Oprah had about writer’s block. I found it very interesting. I was thinking something was wrong with me. I find that I can really write when someone has made me mad….. that’s strange. It also talks about NOT talking about what you’re writing because after you’ve said it, the desire to write is gone. LOL So true that made me laugh. I like to talk out loud when I’m alone, and after all my frustrations are out, I can’t write a thing on it. Wow.. funny.

A time to HAVE YOUR OWN…La’Crease’s Blog

When I was coming up my momma always taught me/us to have our own. My mom would borrow sugar, floor from our neighbors back in the day, but our neighbor borrowed way more, and my momma would say, always have your own stuff so that you won’t have to borrow from anyone. It was good information to know, but when I got on my own for the first time, shooo, seems like I always needed something. I would borrow money from my friends, and no telling what else. But now that I have grown up…. I enjoy being the Lender.

A friend came to me last week and told me about someone I know, and for me to talk to this person because they are always asking others for  things that are suppose to have. I haven’t talked with this person yet, but I will this week. I guess what I’m writing to say is…  work towards having your own. There is nothing like having your own car, money, house, job, personal needs, and anything else that you need to have and get by.

People are willing to help you more if you are known for helping yourself. After a while people will start to look at you as a person who always want something, and it will start to look as if you feel someone owes you ….and they don’t! When you have your own things it puts you in position to be a blessing to to others, instead of always looking for someone to bless you. When people realize that you are a MISUSER, you will look up and see that no one is there for you, and you will be force to learn the hard way.

One day (1995) my friend Gloria asked me if she could see my purse calender to check a date, she was horrified to see all of her check dates and other dates that she received money on, was checked off on my calender. We laughed for years about it, but she cut me off from borrowing money because she realized that since I knew her check days, I was asking her for money on those days. And even though I always paid her back, my days of borrowing from her was cut short. I MISUSED her. I’m finding that a lot of people do this to each other, they don’t want to do whats necessary to keep themselves supplied so that they can have their own. They find it easier to just borrow. But I’m here to tell you, your “Credit” with folks will wear out, and you will be on your own. Only borrow from others when its truly necessary, and God will soften their hearts for you, so that you won’t go without.

There will be times, places, things that you will have to sit out on, and that’s okay. Don’t feel that its a must that you do everything you want, but because you want it, you have to borrow. Learn to sit some things out. When you borrow, pay it when you say you can, and if you can’t CALL THAT PERSON, don’t text, or send a message by someone else. Keep your good credit up with folks so that when you really need something, they will see it in your eyes, and in your speech, and in your heart, and God will lay it on them to help you. When you have your OWN, you are NOW in position to  HELP OTHERS. That’s the biggest picture that God wants us to get.

Photo above is of my personal bag I carry to work with me daily, I have everything I need to start my day. If I need to borrow anything from a coworker….. I’m good for it, because I’m known for having my own, and paying up on the day that I say I will.

Below is a Video of me riding home ( I love to drive) from picking up a donation for the Homeless last month.  Listening to Karen Clark-Sheard and Kierra Sheard. I love THIS SONG!! Be Blessed.

A lesson in BUSINESS to be learned….Cree’s Blog

I’ll be 44 this year 9/3, and I truly Thank God
for allowing me to live this life.  I know when I am truly blessed and I LOVE
telling God just how much I appreciate it.
I must admit I haven’t always been straight up
with myself. I remember when I was about 14 years old reading the Bible. I use
to read the book of Proverbs EVERYDAY and after doing so, I would ask God ,
please Lord dose me with Wisdom. Give me wisdom when I get older, I said that I
wanted to know things, know the truth. Never really knowing that all I had to do
was ask. Here I am 44 years old, and I like to “play dumb” when I don’t even
have too. God has given me WISDOM, all that I can handle  in my life, and still
I play dumb to things, when I know the truth. Today, is the day I stop that.
That’s it, enough is enough.
One thing I notice about myself is I have this NO
NONSENSE cut throat approach, that causes me to cut back sometimes on HOW I tell
the truth. I can be very raw, NO CURSE WORDS, but to the point about it. And
this is why I tell PEOPLE all the time, STOP RUNNING UP BEHIND YOUR MANAGERS
trying to be “friends”.
Because when you really need to BE HEARD you need
for them to not be able to go into their minds and find a “soft spot” about YOU,
when you are talking business. They will sometimes take that and use it against
you. Let me explain.
Last week it was crowded at work, off the chain.
As I was ringing up this lady, one of her bottles of cleaning solutions fell out
of my hand and the top to it broke. She wasn’t upset at all, but I did want
someone to bring her another one.  Since the incident happen where someone in
another city got on the PA system of the stores and ordered all Blacks to leave
, they ordered that all stores take the phones off the registers, making
communication hard for cashiers and management, also the customers who are
paging for their parties. But mangers have walkies with head seats. As one of
the black managers was walking pass my register and my immediate one wasn’t
around, I asked him can he please PAGE someone ( from that department-paper good
and chemicals) to come and get her another one. He walks by real fast, like he’s
busy and don’t look at him, you know how they do when they DONT want you to  BUG
them. So, the faster he was walking, the more it made me want to get his
attention. He says…. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, when I asked him to page
someone to help this lady. OMG my face showed anger all through it. I was in
shock, so was the lady and the FOLKS STANDING IN MY LONG, LONG, LONG LINE. He
walks away never saying a word, never saying if he was going to do it, never
saying someone is on the way. Then about 3 minutes here comes the guy who works
that department. He gets the new bottle and that was fine. The lady asked me his
name and told me that she was going to call corporate on him.
When it was time for me to punch out for the day,
guess who I run into? Yep, the manager. I went up to him with my serious and
curious face, and said….. why did you tell me NO, NO, NO, NO, that you would
walkie someone to help this lady. He says, I was ONLY PLAYING WITH YOU. He said
I DID IT, DIDNT I? I looked at him, and said, Okay, you were playing with ME,
but this was in front of customers, and I wasn’t asking you to get me anything,
this was for HER!!!! He says I was busy, and you shouldn’t be asking me to do
anything, we have CMS’s for that? I said, so you mean to tell me that you are an
ASSISTANT MANAGER and if MY CUSTOMER need assistance I’m NOT suppose to approach
you? He cleared that up so fast. But you know what? He said it, and I know for a
FACT, they don’t like for a associate to go to them first, we are suppose to go
to our immediate manager. And I get that!!! I know this, but when you are NOT
asked to “go and get something”, you are only ASKED to WALKIE help to my
register, and you don’t want to do that…. YOU DONT NEED TO WORK THERE.
PERIOD.
SO, after a while he was really believing with
all his heart that he was NOT wrong in saying to me in from of the customer  “NO
NO NO NO” as he was walking by. I stopped in the middle of my rant, and said …
Let me ask you this? Do you feel that you were wrong in saying “No, No, No, No”?
He said No, I said okay well, this conversation is over, Because if you feel
that you were NOT WRONG, then we will be here all day. Just then a associate
said  TO HIM…….OMGGG, IF YOU’RE having a debate with LaCrease, you gotta be
wrong, she doesn’t get into it with ANYONE. He looked at us both and walked
away. I punched out and left.
Now, this is how I am. I never really deal with
managers unless I have to……or they come to me. I’m a business person, and I
don’t like to confuse the two. This particular manager can look at me and tell
that I’m friendly YES, but when I’m around and he’s playing or joking with
others, I don’t give it too much conversation because for one they aren’t
talking to me, and for 2 I don’t like to mix business that way. Because they
always take it to far, and so does associates. So, then when I need to let them
know that I MEAN BUSINESS, they can’t go into their files in their minds and NOT
take me seriously. As a matter of fact, I never had to deal or work with him
because he does not work in my area, so I don’t know him as others do.

 

 

Anyway…..   that happened last Saturday July
9……. yesterday July 11, I was working by his station and he kept looking at
me. LOL He wanted me to make eye contact with HIM SO BAD!!!!!!!! LOL  I never
once looked up at him, or even his way.  He kept walking past MY
REGISTER looking at me, I could see him on the corner of my eyes,  I wouldn’t
give him a chance to smile in my face. I’ve got an ignore button
built INSIDE ME  that IS NO JOKE!!! I hate being this way, but I’m glad I can be
because I need to. To let him know that I mean business. Hell, I don’t need him
to give me a ride home, pay a bill, or buy me lunch, anything I ask of him, will
be BECAUSE OF THE NEED OF THE CUSTOMER!!! NOT LACREASE WALKER!!! So LOL LOL LOL
I guess after a while he did everything in his power to get my attention, or for
me to look up at him, or to speak to me ( guess he was afraid to speak
FIRST…especially with no direct eye contact LOL). Guess what he finally says?
LOL “There’s a penny by your feet”. It KILLED me to respond by picking it up,
but I’m not a ignorant person, I did hear him, he is my manager, BUT….. I
NEVER looked at him, I stepped back and picked up the penny. I guess he said to
himself, yeah she is conscience of my presence, she’s just not speaking or
talking to me. DAYUM RIGHT!! Imma teach him, that you don’t play like that in
front of a customer, when I come to you, its for the customers NOT FOR ME!!! I
should have told him when we had that debate…… you know what? Lets take this
same conversation to OUR STORE MANAGER…… and see what he says about it!!!!!!
HE’s lucky I was to HOTT, to think that far.
I say that to say….. STOP playing with your
managers, and trying to be their friends, and trying to be in their circle, and
to go out with them and be in their mix. Because when you mean business, they
will laugh in your face ( if they don’t respect your opinion.) Learn to separate
business from friends. Besides you should already have friends before you start
this job.

SEX before MARRIAGE ( grown folks)

Here is a part of what I wrote on my Sistergurls Group Site. The subject is about having SEX before marriage. Below is my post from that thread. BE Blessed!

Ok, Im back!! Here are some things that I read before on line about this, and so I decided to copy and paste the parts that stuck out for ME. Then there are Scriptures, then my personal word.

 

Far too often we focus on the “recreation” aspect of sex without recognizing that there is another aspect—procreation. Sex within marriage is pleasurable, and God designed it that way. God wants men and women to enjoy sexual activity within the confines of marriage. Song of Solomon and several other Bible passages (such as Proverbs 5:19) clearly describe the pleasure of sex. However, the couple must understand that God’s intent for sex includes producing children. Thus, for a couple to engage in sex before marriage is doubly wrong—they are enjoying pleasures not intended for them, and they are taking a chance of creating a human life outside of the family structure God intended for every child.

While practicality does not determine right from wrong, if the Bible’s message on sex before marriage were obeyed, there would be far fewer sexually transmitted diseases, far fewer abortions, far fewer unwed mothers and unwanted pregnancies, and far fewer children growing up without both parents in their lives. Abstinence is God’s only policy when it comes to sex before marriage. Abstinence saves lives, protects babies, gives sexual relations the proper value, and, most importantly, honors God.

1 Corinthians 7:2 ESV But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.

My thoughts…… Concerning the Scripture above. God is saying to avoid sexual immorality each man should have his own wife. Okay who are the ones left? The single folks. If we are having sex outside of having a HUSBAND then we face temptation of sexual immorality.
 
 An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband. 35 I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.

1 Corinthians 7

I’m a single woman. My aim is to be devoted to the Lord in BODY AND SPIRIT. Now if I’m having sex with men ( a man) who (is) are  NOT my husband….. I’m devoted to HIM. He will receive my BODY AND MY SPIRIT. Where is room in that for God?
 
God wants MY BODY, okay but if I’m having sex with this man, why would God want to SHARE in that? He wants BOTH ….BODY AND SPIRIT. We cant say okay God, I’m going to give him my BODY (SEXUALLY), and YOU can have my Spirit. NOOOOOO, that wont work. He wants both!!! He has every right to want both!! Now, lets be real, we like to make the Scriptures work in our behalf . What if God said…. Okay just give me your Spirit, then it probably would be fair to say, ” HE DIDNT ASK FOR MY BODY SO I HAVE ALL THE RIGHT TO HAVE SEX WITHOUT A HUSBAND”. But God didn’t, he said he wanted a single woman  to be devoted to HIM…BODY AND SPIRIT!
 
If we/you are SINGLE and doing ANYTHING outside of giving God both, BODY AND SPIRIT…..its a SIN. When it comes to this Scripture as far as I’m concerned BODY AND SPIRIT ARE TWINS. They come together as a package.
 
This topic is not even a 5 minute conversation. The Scripture is self explanatory. Its not magic, its not difficult, its either this or that.
