There is no Second Eve

My father and I were having a conversation one day about how the word says that when a man marries he lets go of his parents and clings to his wife. This was a subject that he was discussing with a couple he was counceling for marriage.

Shockingly the man had a problem with that, stating his Mama comes first no matter what. I know most of us would get upset with that but how many men say that same thing or think those same thoughts.

But think about all the things a mother does, especially in a home where the father was not there. She went the extra mile for her son and he knows that. So now what is a woman to do? She has to come up to the level of his mother. That is a hard pill to swallow for some but for the rest, we get it.

Now, I had my wheels turning with this conversation I was having with my Father right. I was totally thinking about the flip side. Us women. We as women are usually try to fill a void that we sometimes feel we have with a man. The problem is, no man can fill that void. But we settle for whatever but the void gets deeper and darker. We think that if we don't try to hold on to this man that someone else will have him and then we will have a lonely void again. So we give this man our best assets to try to keep this dark deep void, but we are continuously sinking and don't realize what is happening.

At first we thought that we would finally be complete with this man, this fake king, this bolder that we thought was a jewel. We thought this king would make us a queen and we may have been happy for that moment.

But what we failed to realize is we tried to fill this void with the wrong thing. We focused on the wrong relationship...I'm preaching betta than ya'll shoutin!

We got it twisted, no man can fill the void but Jesus Christ.... If we remember all that our FATHER has done for us, then the man that desires our attentions has to step up to what our FATHER has done. God supplies ALL our needs, there is no void when you are in Christ Jesus.

God sent the second Adam so that everything would be complete. All of our needs are met. The first Adam couldn't do it. But did you ever notice that he never sent a second Eve??

Eve could not line up with Adam because he was out of order....(I'm trying to bring this home). So what God had to teach us as Eve's is that now we have to line up with the second Adam. We have to make him Lord over our lives and follow where he leads us. If we do that, everything else will have to line up.

The man that comes in your life would have to step up or move on. This is a trickle up affect. I know that does not make sense but God is supernatural nothing he does makes sense until after a storm. It is a trickle up affect because if we line up, the man has to line up then Gods word transforms and makes a relationship beautiful and then all is complete because Jesus supplied all our needs.

I pray this messages blesses your heart.
