Pretty Pistols: Persuaded by the lie of a Fairytale

recently on facebook i found a girl, or should i say women that brought me way back to my childhood (:go figure:) i was so HAPPY to see her because when i was a LITTLE girl she TOUCHED my heart in a way that nobody would ever be able to FORGET. and she wasn't BOASTFUL or PRIDEFUL about it which embedded it into my heart FOREVER.

as a young girl i WANTED to be just like her, her SPIRIT was CALMING and REASSURING, she GENUINELY CARED about the people that God had created, she WANTED to help them HELP themselves, she was totally and completely IN LOVE with God and i ENVIED the relationship she had with Him. just by her actions she made me want to be a better person and i will NEVER forget the day that her mother came to my grandmothers house and said that she had found her DREAM man and was MOVING to AFRICA to MARRY him and start a MINISTRY there. at that point i WANTED to be here. i wanted to get MARRIED at a young age and spend my WHOLE LIFE with a man that could also HELP me BUILD my RELATIONSHIP with GOD and at the same time HELP others to find and BUILD theirs. it me it SEEMED like a FAIRYTALE.

(i am going into all this DETAIL about her to set up something that is just mind blowing. and i am SORRY that i probably wont do it any JUSTICE but it sits heavy on my mind)

either way she was 19 at the time and MOVED to AFRICA to be with this man and she began a MINISTRY that grew and grew under the COVERING of GOD. her HUSBAND was the only BOYFRIEND she'd EVER had. none the less she found out that HE was having an AFFAIR with one of the females WITHIN their MINISTRY. i cant and don't want to begin to IMAGINE the PAIN that she is enduring.

her HUSBAND and AFRICA were her LIFE its all she knew, i want to say that it DEFINES her but i don't know how safe of a statement that is. either way her WHOLE world was FLIPPED, CRUMBLED, and STOLEN but the SELFISHNESS of one mans FLESH. and it leaves me asking myself WHY??
