Sin importarme lo que piensen o lo que dirán She grants my wishes like a genie in a bottle yeah yeah Oh, I think that I found myself a cheerleader No le importa que la mire, ta' loca conmigoĬause oh I think, that I found myself a cheerleader Think of someone in your life whom you admire for their strength- speak a word of encouragement into them and DO SOMETHING nice for them.Que la lleve en una esquina y la provoque (oque)Įlla se suelta en verdad, tiene gana 'e bailar When one person is left to carry a load they will eventually buckle under the weight.Įveryone needs support and encouragement sometimes. We often single this passage out to speak of marriage between a believer and nonbeliever, but I think it’s deeper than that. Instead of working together, they are at odds with one another. When oxen are unequally yoked, they cannot perform the task set before them. The weaker or shorter ox would walk more slowly than the taller, stronger one, causing the load to go around in circles. An “unequally yoked” team has one stronger ox and one weaker, or one taller and one shorter. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness?Ī yoke is a wooden bar that joins two oxen to each other and to the burden they pull. This lopsidedness has got to give because I’m a little tired of doing all the giving.Ģ Corinthians 6:14 states, Don’t team up with (don’t be tied up with, mismatched with, unequally yoked together with) those who are unbelievers. But his priority was not what he could do to help me, it was how I could enhance his life. His excuse was that I was really busy so he didn’t know what my schedule would be like in order to work out. I dated a man earlier this year who made some changes to his health and we discussed working out together, with him acting as my trainer and fitness coach. See me behind the facade, behind taking care of everyone else- see that I was vulnerable and needed someone to hold me up, someone to cheer me on. Remarking on my strength didn’t feel like a compliment when I felt like I was barely holding on and really didn’t want to carry the weight that was placed upon my shoulders.

One friend has told me he admired my strength in the midst of caregiving and dealing with the loss of my father. They’ve given me compliments and spoken kindly of and to me but the words they use can sometimes be lacking. I’m sure if some of my male friends read this they would be surprised. I wonder if they pause to consider how their support would make me feel. Even in friendships with men, they’ve often responded about how my support makes them feel. With the exception of male family members on occasion and my ex-boyfriend, most men have been recipients of my encouragement instead of givers. What troubles me sometimes is that I rarely get the same ‘upliftment’ from the men in my life.
