YOUR BRIDE IS WAITING KNOCK THE DOOR

THE CRY OF THE WAITING BRIDE
()
Waiting is not exactly a palatable venture when time is past. many women are waiting for their Prince charming who are no where to be found. some are already in their late thirties, while others are in their early forties. my heart goes out to this beautiful, intelligent and consecrated women who are still waiting and hoping that one day, their bridegroom will knock the door of their hearts.
My problem, however, is that many bridegroom are ignorant, too cautious and unwilling to appreciate the pain in the hearts of this intelligent women waiting for them. I am full of hope not withstanding, that with the right information and guidance, the bridegroom will do what they are expected to do. Hear the heartbeat of tonye that provokes my hope.

Tonye walk up to me without even exchanging pleasantaries, she just blurted out, why are you men so slow? I have waiting for twenty years for someone to say this simple words, will you marry me? The men just hang around, pretend they are interested and yet say nothing.
I could sense the anger vibrating in tonye voice. I could literally touch the emotional fibre of her disappointment. What I did not expect is the next thing she said tekena a girl got to do what she got to do. I was still wondering what she said when tonye said, the next nice and caring guy i meet won't escape me. i will just open my mouth to say what he is too dumb to say assisting him would not be a problem. I think that is amazing. But am not saying you should go and ask every guy you see for marriage.

Tonye is from my home town from Rivers state of Nigeria and has been my childhood friend, she is a sweet girl and well behaved, intelligent and a good looking woman. She is in our early thirties and that seems to make the matter worse.
The bridegroom stands at the door of the brides heart to knock. This is true even in the relationship between us and our spiritual bridegroom

" Behold I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and open the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with me.
Revelation 3:20

CATCH THE ATTENTION OF THE BRIDE
()
The word behold is an attention grabber. No man can gain access to the woman he wants to marry without first catching her attention. This is no way suggests that you should go about shouting 'behold! To any woman, not to talk of the one you want to have relationship with. Neither does it demand that you shout hey girl! In order to catch her attention.
You can catch a woman attention in the following ways,

1 Good looks
2 Proper Dressing
3 Pleasant words
4 Right attitude
5 Integrity of life
6 Gentleman behavior
7 Courteous conduct
8 Beauty of Holiness
9 Generous disposition
10 Visionary insight

Don't expect a woman to warm up to you if you have not first caught her attention. The way you dress is the way you will be addressed. If you fail to give her an attention grabber. Someone else might grab her instead of you.

HOW BOAZ CAUGHT THE ATTENTION OF RUTH
()
Ruth was a widow from Moab, who came to Bethlehem with her mother in-law after the death of her husband. The manner in wish she left her people to a strange land was instructive. But even more instructive was Boaz's response to indigent Woman. She took note of is generosity, familiarity and Favour. Boaz caught Ruth's attention when he invited her to eat with him the very first day they met.
At the lunch break, Boaz said to her, "come
Over here; eat some bread. Dip it in the wine.
So she join the harvesters. Boaz passed the
roasted grain to her. She ate her fill and even
Have some left over ( Ruth 2:14 msg)
Again Ruth counseled her not to go to any other field, but to remain in his own field, through out the harvest season

  Then Boaz spoke to Ruth:  listen, my daughter. 
   From now on don't go to any other field to 
   glean-stay right here in this one. And stay close 
   to my young women. Watch where they are 
   Harvesting and fellow them. And don't worry about
   A thing; I have given orders to my servants not to
   Harass you. When you get thirsty, feel free to go and  
   drink from the water buckets that the servants have
   filled (Ruth 2:8-9 msg)

He then ask is workmen to deliberately drop the harvest on the floor for Ruth to pick, against the protocol of picking only that which mistakenly fell from the hand of the harvesters.

 When she got up to go back to work, Boaz ordered
 His servants: let he'd glean where their is still plenty 
 of grain on the ground make it easy for her. Better 
 yet, pull some of the good stuff out and leave it for
 To glean. Give her special treatment 
 ( Ruth 2:15-16 msg)

Ruth was attracted to Boaz because of his kindness and generosity. No wonder she fell at his fit asking,

 ...How does this happen that you should pick
 Me out and treat me as kindly- me, a foreigner? "
  ( Ruth 2:10)

Kindness and generosity are attention grabbers. Use them to knock and open the heart of the bride that is waiting for you. Every woman will respond to a special treatment. Miss you also need to open your heart when you see Mr Right or you might end up loosing him. Mr Right put a little effort and you won't regret you did.
