I was one of those young girls. My father abandoned the family for his secretary and never had a relationship with us. I had no boundaries when it came to dating. I let guys run over me because I was insecure. I was attracted to the tough guys because I wanted to be protected. I am in my 50’s and just learned my lesson

[ambicateiler]

I agree. My father loved me, I think, but he didn’t know how to show it. So I put off dating until grad school. It remained very casual. At 30 I met a man a generation older. He was brilliant, funny, kind, and great company. We paled around for a decade before I felt really comfortable enough to marry him. It was a long wait, but very worth while. We had a wonderful married life together. He was 85 when he died, but still very lively and young at heart. I was so blessed.
I never looked at a younger man —either when he was alive or thereafter. I knew how blessed I was and still am 20 years later.

I was in church from the time I was four years old. Sadly, there was no father figure for me, even though many of the women were very kind to me, making sure I got to and from church, showing up at my church events to support me, and loving me. I wish there had been a man at the church willing to help.

[Thankful]

Mark. It’s not that clean and easy .
My relationship started just as you described “a church guy” he turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Young women need their hearts and bodies protected by a man who was raised by a “good man”.
If that potential husband did NOT have a good loving GODLY father raising him?
RUN!!! Please do not wait for change!!

Agreed! I’m a woman who grew up without a strong sober loving father, and I can say as soon as I could have a baby, I did. I’m a single mom of 7 kids and discovered that Jesus my father has been with me the whole time! I was never abandoned. My life could have been different but I know he is gonna use my story to bring others out of doubt and into his loving word!

I didn't have my dad in my life, but I had awesome uncles and a father figure in my life. I was never into older men, i was in my 20's had men in their 40s hitting on me I thought it was gross to date a men that could be my dad. I dated men my own age or a few years younger. What was important to me, if he is a kind hearted person and how he treated others. I'm in my 30s got married last month to my husband whose a 1 year younger than me 😉. He's a wonderful husband he's gentlest kindhearted man I ever met! I know he'll be a father one day as well. ❤❤

God bless you sir..🎉🎉
Thank you. I hope somebody will learn from this video and not end up hurting themselves or even hurting someone else.
This made me emotional 😢

[StashaR-ipdi]

Yup, I was one of those younger chics that went for an older guy

[ash.leeann]

Not always, my sister is happily married to a man our parents age (17 year age gap) and my best friend also has the same age gap with her hubby. We've all been married about the same timespan of 11+ years. My hubby and I are the same age I'm actually 60 days older than him 😅. Our dad's were in our lives. There are always exceptions but I do see what she's saying and what Pastor Mark is saying.

Amen so true gods family purpose is glory to his love for us

[lazaruslawson]

Phenomenal advice ❤🎉 thank you so much for letting Abba Father God work through you!

Why i talk to my daughter all the time. She lives across the country with her mom and stepdad. Like last night we talked about the Bible for 3 hours. She's 16, goes to church and is such a sponge when it comes to the gospel. A real chip off the old block.😊❤️🙏🙌

[davidbeddow]

The biggest problem is how church has failed young men for the last 40 years.

I grew up in the church after demanding my dad take me with him when I was about 7 or 8 years old. I was properly born again aged 13 and then chased out of the church by my vicar at 19 because he'd never taught about Godly relationships after his wife left him, repented and asked him to let her come home and instead he divorced her and married again within a year.

Thankfully the church I joined had a VERY Godly, Spirit-filled vicar as did the next two pastors I learned under. My wife is a strong, independent woman - which has some issues for us, but we're committed to sticking it out after 20 years of marriage.

Bless you for your obedience in Ministry, Pastor Mark.

My father wouldve tried to pimp me out...he was the one to avoid n b afraid of! Ill nevr kno wt its like to b protected n valued by a father.. BUT GOD...maybe He will find value in me i hope

[CEB]

I never had a dad around (he is a "Christian Minster") I never was interested in an older man...But, I did make a lot wrong decision and eventually chose the wrong man...

[RachelPenningtonHull]

That’s true, but, if you’re a good looking 20 year old, even if you’re innocently looking at the older men in the church as fathers, their insecure wives will not want you around, which is unfortunate because she is not after your husband but only admires him as a father figure and it would be fruitful for the younger girl to be friends with an established wife and learn how to be a good wife.

[julerry]

I think this happens with men too. I've seen young men looking to be mothered.

[RoadBloc]

We all know people who had neither of their parents in their lives or were even abused by one or both of them and still choose better than being promiscuous or unfaithful…Truth and Goodness don’t come from our parents, they come from The Most High 🙏🏾…

My Gosh! Absolutely 💯! Please hear this ladies!

Over hearing conversations between women from Iran. Who moved here with their husband's. Heartbreaking. How they were treated back home. Was eye-opening.
Not knowing what a Arab or a Muslim was. To hear the testimony without inquiring. When they turned towards me and the look on my face. When they realized I overheard them. The older one told me to always remember what they said. And that the truth of their statements will be proven. They didn't try to convince me they were telling the truth. She said that with no doubt about the statement. God will te😮ach you in the most shocking way if you let him.
