wear your ring in public!

hello my beloved friends, here i am once again, sorry for haing taken so long in writing anything more... but studies are tough and the only time i have left of the day i have been spending it with you on chat. ok, i know... i haven't been able to talk with all (don't point your finger at me Anj! i'm going to have a long and deep conversation with you soon :P i have it scheduled)
so, not much has been happening worth mentioning but i have decided to post this thing i have read some time ago in the blog of a dear friend of mine, hope it's encouraging to you all, and pray for me and my studies! i need it. oh, and i wanted to say a public Tx to Cel for letting me put the story up :) LY! keep on going for the Lord!

"Picture it: a guy gets up the courage to ask his girl to marry him. She whole heartedly agrees and cannot wait until her wedding day-the day she has been looking forward to ever since she was a small girl! Her new husband-to-be slides a gorgeous ring onto her finger and she knows she has never been happier in all her life.
Now picture this: the sweet young couple have been invited out to a friend’s party. The guy drives over to the girl’s house to pick her up, she gets into the passenger seat and they start driving. Soon the guy notices that she is trying to yank the ring off her finger. “What on earth are you doing?” he askes her with a funny grin. She seems a little embarrassed and mumbles something quietly. “Is the ring not good enough?” he jokes, and then immediatly notices that there are tears in her eyes.
“Don’t be mad at me!” she says, “Please understand! I do love you, I really do! And I’ll wear your ring when we are both together, but I don’t want to wear it out in public. My friends…they…just don’t think you’re cool. I don’t want them to think I am weird.”

Hmm. Unusual, huh? What kind of a girl would only wear her ring around the man she is to marry? She should be so proud of it!The same way it is for us as Christians. There is simply no way we can be “Sunday” Christians, it’s all or nothing."

so, are YOU wearing your RING in PUBLIC?


woah! awesome huh? it pictures so well the relationship we should have with Him the one who matters the most to all of us :) i know almost everyone of you are already wearing your ring in public or are at least doing a big effort to do it and you're working on it, but just wanted to send a reminder, we should be proud of having Him as hour Husband! He's the best lover ever!

CHEERS TO JESUS! WE LOVE YOU!

  • interesting concept Santi. I was thinking a whila back when I read something about the guy that acted as Uncle Jim in the Treasure Attic series (I forget his real name now) about him wearing a ring in public when he didn't really have a wife. He said he wore it to symbolize he's married to Jesus.

  • brilliant story there Cel. good question to always ask myself in the morning, 'am I wearing my ring? am remembering what it's for? am I actually showing it off like I should be?!" we've got something to be proud of, and we shouldn't care if the world doesn't think Jesus is "kewl" I do! so your loss!
