Running out of time on here - "He who findeth a wife findeth a good thing!!I" C'mon, find me. Gee, it would be a miracle. I don't believe in this venue, but I believe in Him. He witholds no good thing to those who walk uprightly...so apparently a husband is not good for me right now? LOL. This is YOUR LAST CALL for a GOOD WOMAN. Please help me...I can cook and bake up a storm, but I have no one to feed. For an Italian woman, that's very sad. My nest is very inviting, but I can easily jump into yours and fix it up ;-)

I am old fashioned, love homemaking and all the creativity that goes with it. No fun without someone to do it all FOR! Gourmet cooking and baking, antiques, art and writing keep me occupied. Reformed men my age are hard to find, that is, the unmarried ones. I guess that's a good sign! They're the faithful ones... But I shouldn't be looking. He must find me. "He that findeth a wife findeth a good thing." Proverbs 18:22 And I pray that I can be a 'good thing' to enhance and bless a godly man's life. "A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones." Proverbs 12:4. These verses and the entire chapter, Proverbs 31, inspire me and I pray the Lord gives me another chance at marriage.

OFFER EXPIRES NOVEMBER 21, 2011

I was raised in a Pentecostal church and gave my heart to the Lord at 6 years old. In my early 20s, I wrestled with the supernatural gifts controversy and felt the Lord leading me out of the Pentecostal/non-denominational scene. I read about church history, the Reformation, and I made a spiritually immature decision to attend a Lutheran Church, an ELCA church. Their ritualistic worship turned me off, but my husband at the time (a former Roman Catholic) loved it. At my request, we frequently visited Baptist churches, which were more homey to me and similar to my upbringing. Yet we stayed in the liberal Lutheran denomination until the marriage ended. It was then that I was able to 'stumble upon'- ha, Divine Providence!!!- the richness of the doctrines of grace and the true Reformed faith. After my divorce, I found an Orthodox Presbyterian Church and if I could put music to this synopsis, you would now be hearing the Hallelujah chorus!!!

I now understand true Christian liberty. Christian life is not a wooden walk of obedience or works, it is one that is prompted by love and gratitude for what Jesus has done for me. The finished work of Christ!

Mornings are quiet time...just let me drink my coffee, read my Bible and think.

I've listened to sermons on contentment; feeling such guilt for being discontented with singleness. I've sought counsel from others about my 'aloneness' (which is absolutely NOT loneliness) and those counselors have only berated me for not occupying myself with enough diversions to get off that self-pity boat. Pooh to them. I read an article by Maurice Roberts in 'The Banner of Truth' called "Comfort for the Lonely Christian" and it was filled with love and compassion and Biblical truth. No, the article didn't address divorce issues, but it brought me to Christ and His loneliness, and then...all I could do was cry, with Him. He knows. It consoled me. I read this over and over again.

We read in Genesis that God did not want us to be alone. He created a helpmeet for Adam. We read how even the animals went in pairs into the Ark. It's a couples world. To say that singleness is a wonderful gift is contrary to man's nature, IMHO. There are a select few who thrive in that condition, but I'm not one of them!!! I long to share my whole heart with someone.

After 23 years of marriage, it seemed I was married to a total stranger. He declared to me that he loved someone else and left me and my children. I prayed and gave it 6 months, praying he would have a change of heart. After 6 months, he said he wanted a divorce. He is now remarried to a Roman Catholic. He doesn't attend any church. I've been on my own since he left in Jan. '03 and the divorce was final in Jan. '05. I have since relocated from NY to Indy for survival reasons and to help my daughter. God is good. He works all things together for good. I praise Him that he has chosen me as His child. My Divine Husband has truly provided, protected and loved me like no other!!!

I'm both an artist and writer, and I worked as a graphic artist in NY. I decided to concentrate more on writing and I'm now working as an editor for a successful dot com. Besides that, I'm working on writing/illustrating children's picture books. I think picture books are a wonderful art form and I have a studio full of them. Comes in handy for my grandchildren, too!

I love hunting for treasures! Did you ever watch 'American Pickers' on the History Channel? I would love to be with them in their van and go hunting for antiques and old stuff. Revamping old treasures is one of my hobbies. I thrive when I'm being creative, whether it be cooking, baking, drawing, writing or antiquing. Just relaxing and listening to music as well.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY and I'm a full-blooded Italian, second generation. That makes me FBI. So be careful. Been to California, Hawaii, St. Thomas, Bahamas, several other US states, but I long to see Italy, especially Tuscany!!!
