I rather like these 3 cats but they were the only one's feline fellows. Aren't they cute?

When I see a pretty girl on a run I speed up and pass her. I don't do it to try to impress her, I do it to see if she'll pass me back. If she does that's how I'll know she's the one for me.

Sole-sisters and Sole-mate

I don’t remember where I read this but I read somewhere that the word “soul-mate" implies that we’re looking for our “other-half" or “better-half" when we’ve already been made whole and complete in Christ. He’s our soul-mate. hehe. He’s the only one that has the power to reconcile us back to Him—making us realize our true and original identity in Him. We are already whole because Jesus lives in us. No guy or girl can make us more whole or complete than what Jesus has already done. We’ve already been made whole! So, we have our sole-sisters. Sole as in the soles in your shoes, ya know? Sole-sisters because we walk, run and sprint this race together! We share our hearts, our lives, our weaknesses and our hopes with one another but we recognize that our ultimate mate and friendship is in the Lord. We recognize our identities and we keep each other accountable to live lives worthy of our calling in Jesus Christ, meaning we don’t let a friend forget who they truly are. We press on together,laugh together, worship together, carry each other’s burdens, grow together and hurt together. I have four best friends that I call my sole-sisters and man, I think they can all agree with me when I say that we have learned what sisterhood and unconditional love means through our, now, 8 years of friendship. But later down the road…hopefully in the not tooooo distant future, I’ll meet my sole-mate—one guy that I’ll be able to share a walk that most closely reflects Christ’s intimacy with his bride, the church. And that’s pretty freakin awesome! 3+(1+1)=1. Just wanted to post this random post because my fb friends have been wondering why I address my friends as sole-sisters instead of soul-sisters. Haha I’m not a bad speller guys… I had a reason! And I’m not trying to say calling your best friends or husband your “soul-sisters/mate" is wrong because in a way, as Christians, we do share our souls and our lives with one another in a way most people don’t and that’s really awesome! But I use “sole" because it helps me to remember that God is the only one that can make me whole and that His love is the only love that can satisfy. No other relationship is meant to be as passionately pursued or valued over my relationship with Him. Also, it helps me to keep in mind that being vulnerable and honest with a person and being dependant on them are not the same thing. I desire to be vulnerable, giving, genuine, honest and unconditional in all my relationships, no matter what I recieve in return. I want my standard of love and loving others to be Christ Himself. I want to love others as a result of being consumed with Jesus…I guess I’m trying to say that I want to love from a place of already being full and overflowing of God’s love..not out of a prideful or needy place. No more orphan-spirit. It’s about knowing that I am His daughter and that I am completely made whole by the Father’s love and loving and serving out of that security and confidence. Loving, giving and serving whole-heartedly and without holding back because I know I’m always full. I want to be so confident in His love that I will be able to love everyone like that one day!
