I love this!! After so many years of dating to find out what I really wanted vs what I was socialized to want, God has brought me full circle to a place where my only prayer is "I want Gods best for me and I want my eyes and my heart to stay open so I can recognize him." That's it, no more list. Which is hilarious because I started making my lists at 13 and would modify them every single year lol.
LOL I probably started mine younger than that and they would get worse and worse! So thankful God brought you back to His truth. Praying that will allow you to recognize him in all things, which is a beautiful spot to be in. Thank you for reading!
Thank you for this. I am reading this after going to bible study, and reading the readings for this upcoming Sunday, as we are practicing Lectio Divina. One part was to meditate on what we just read, and pray for something we have been waiting for, for us to have patience and trust in God's timing. Sometimes I feel unworthy (due to having kids with 2 other men) wanting to find a God fearing Man to be my husband, to have a marriage with God at the center. I knew when I was a little girl and then just before the age of 15, I wanted to be married, I wanted to wait and give my all to my husband. I waited but didn't wait for God or for marriage, I was proposed to but never actually planned or married. Before I came back to my faith in God, my religion, and my Church, I knew I had sinned and went my way to find a husband. I have repented and those sins have been absolved. I want to continue waiting on God for my future husband if it is His will. I have the desire but it's His will. I will trust God, have faith and hope that His will be done.
Oh my goodness friend! You are so brave and strong. You have been through so much and God will use that for His glory. The simple fact that you’re waiting on Him NOW, is so important. We all have sins in our past that we had to let go. Always remember that shame doesn’t come from God, that’s a trick from the enemy to hold us back. God placed that desire to be married in your heart, and there is nothing you can do to take it away. Keep running back to him, even when you feel like you can’t. So proud of you! I’ll be praying for you! Thank you for reading too!
Very good read and insight. If not careful, we can excuse the blessing that God has for us because of what we want ourselves. This is message that needs to go out.
Thank you! I appreciate you’re comment and you reading. A Godly relationship is always always worth waiting for. He knows exactly what we need and when we need it. We just have to be patient and willing to listen.
