Men’s Brain Women’s Brain – Mark Gungor

We can all remember our school days when we were faced with exams. We spent all day in school-and still we panicked when it came to test time. Why? Perhaps it’s because our time in the classroom was only one part of the learning process. The other part was time at home engaging with the material through homework, weight loss worksheets, sildenafil and flashcards-all designed to prepare us for exams and to make sure we had a grasp of the material and were headed in the right direction. The exam brought panic because it was the culmination of all of our hard work and the measure of our direction and mastery of the material.  These exams and tests were for our benefit. They measured our growth, highlighted our strengths and weaknesses, and guided us to the paths we should take. The same is true of our spiritual lives…

We must examine ourselves with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and always be ready to be tested. Always being ready for exams is foundational to a positive life in Christ.

Sitting across the table from my beautiful friend in the quaint coffee shop, prescription
my worry mounted. She was sharing details about her new whirlwind relationship that had begun a couple months earlier.

“I finally met that guy I’ve been talking to on the Internet. After calling and text messaging constantly for the last two months, medicine
we decided to take it the next level—so we met half way last weekend. It was amazing. He’s perfect for me! He is so kind, smart, funny, dynamic … he is too good to be true!”

Exactly! I thought to myself.

LIE #2:  If it feels right, it is right.
LIE #3:  I can overlook a few character problems (a.k.a. red flags)—no one is perfect.
LIE #4:  I really know him after spending so much time talking to him.
LIE #6:  Coincidences are a sign from God.
LIE #7:  It’s normal for him to pressure me for sex. That’s just how men are.
LIE #9:  When I find a man and get married, I will finally feel happy and complete.
